Gripen gard: Cosy cottage with woodburning stove

Little cosy cabin with a woodburning cooking stove. Situated in the green with lovely wiew. The cottage has a small dobbel bed. In the cottage you can make your own food on the woodburning stove. It is not as difficult as is seemes. It is a little compost toilet in the cabin. In the main room it is a lot of books, mainly about crafting. A sewing machine and a spinning weel an be borrowed for use in the cottage. The cabin is situated in the middle of the pasture at a small sheep farm, surrounded by green meadows and native forest. A big lake, Storavatnet, who is perfect for rowing and canoeing is nearby. Perfect for friends who wants to do some exploring, hiking, fishing, crafting, writing, or just be at the farm. The bed is a small double bed, and there is an extra mattress. The cottage have a compost toilet, and running cold water outside. It is electricity so you can charge phones, and for light, but for heating it is a gas heater, and also a gas cooking stove. It is a electric kettle as well. No WIFI in the hut, but in the farmhouse if you need internet. If you need extra mattress/bedding, let me know before you arrive. The same for some of the the more special things, such as wine glasses. Just tell me what you need, and I will provide it for you. If somethings is missing, or if it is anything you lack or miss, just tell me, and I will do all I can to meet your wishes. :-) It's a nice spot outside the cabin to sit by the bonfire at night. I provide firewood. It is possible to borrow my boat/canoe for exploring the lake. It is a silent lake, so no motors allowed. ;-) Gripen is a silent spot, it is very little sound pollution, and the same with light, so it gets very dark, when it is dark. So here the stars shine bright. Anyway, the the cows sometimes moos, sheep says BÆÆÆ now and then, and some of them have a little bell... And then I have two dachshunds at the farm, and a young Hungarian pumi, and they are very enthusiastic, and love people! So be prepared for some happy barking when you arrive! :-) Since this actually is a working farm, I sometimes can be vey busy, and unforeseen things can happen, so I hope you understand this. I will anyway do my best to help you as fast as I can, if you need me. Now in 2021 , I am building a big new traditional barn at the farm. Because of this, it is a bit messy around the building site, it is difficult to avoid. It is also remains after we have been having a sawmill here, to saw all the timber we needed for the barn. We are working with cleaning up, and I think and hope that you should not be bothered from it, it is clean around the cottages anyway. Around the cabin it is mostly nature. It is a big lake near by, and a big native rainforest (saved) with very old pines. You can borrow one of the boats, and a fishing net, so you can catch your own meals, and also pick mushrooms and berries. You can swim in the lake, but if you want a shower, you must go to the farm house for that. Extra payment for: Breakfast, lunch and dinner: 500 pr person pr day. Then you eat all meals with us in the farmhouse, or you can take it to the cottage. Must be arranged at least the day before. Extra firewood: 100 nok pr bag (the bags are big) If you need to take a shower, you do that in my bathroom in the farm house. I try to keep the bathroom as clean as possible all the time, but for the time being I have a lot of workers at the farm, since I am building a big new barn. So even if I clean every day, sometimes it get a bit messy because of this. Sorry about that. When the barn is finished, it will be a big new bathroom with everything in the barn, but for some more months, we just have to cope with my little bathroom who everybody use at the moment. If you need WIFI, you are welcome to use the lounge in my house. I will show you everything when you arrive. . If you need to wash clothes, contact me , and I will help you. :-) You will be provided with one sack of firewood when you arrive. If you need more, tell me, and I fix it. If you use more than one sack pr day, I have to charge you 100 nok pr sack. It is sheep pasture around the cottage, so it is important that my guests respect the sheep and do not scare them. No running, jumping or laud voices near the sheep. That is the same for chickens, cats and dogs. When you come to the house, the dogs will bark. It is two very small old dachshunds, and one Hungarian pumi, who is still young, and they are all very happy and enthusiastic. Despite the barking, they are very friendly dogs, and they just want to get to know you. It is also important to keep in mind, that this is the countryside, and Gripen is actually a working farm with pastures and animals, surrounded by nature. I just say this to make you prepared for getting shit on your shoes! For the same reason it is totally forbidden to walt inside the cabin with shoes. Use slippers og thick socks! I say this with a smile and a blinking eye! You will of course manage very well!
