Located in the village of West Torpa 15 km from the village Dokka, Synnfjell 22 km. The house has a small living room with sofa and chairs. Kitchen with chairs and table. Bedroom in the chamber set with a double bed and a single bed. Two bedrooms on 2 floors with double beds. Curtain between rooms. Old beds,L 190. Upgraded with top mattress of 7cm. Cozy outdoor area. Games and seating. Convenience store 100 M. Ski out/ski in, light track, which shines from nightfall until 10: 00 pm every day and about 40 km uphill runs. Simple standard.

The space
Nostalgic surroundings, with house and garden. Several fishing waters in the nearby area. Swimming area at Ulsjøen located in the nearby area.
The house is worthy of preservation and historic. It was built in the hard 30s by my great-grandparents in the ground. I have restored it according to antiquarian principles.
There are ski slopes right by the house, "ski out - ski in"
It is an old and simple standard. Some were not happy with my beds on the 2. floor, while others say they have never slept better. But here the beds are as they were in the 30s (there is an extra mattress topper) 190 cm long. Not all the world's technical devices, but games and a sensory environment outside and inside. A little like "log off". If you want nostalgia - and not luxury - this is the place for you.

Guest access
House and garden are for the guests.

Other things to note
The convenience store, closes on weekdays at 5 pm and Saturday at 3 pm. Closed on Sundays. Can otherwise provide short-term food from Vest-Torpa gårds og viltkjøtt AS. Regarding the water, it is a little discolored due to the addition of humus from the marshes above. The water can be used, but I do not recommend washing white laundry.

Where you’ll be

Nordre Land, Oppland, Norway

In Torpa there is quiet surroundings in a Rural environment. We are fortunate that there are several active farmers with dairy farms , sheep farms and grazing animals in the outcrops. Convenience store with locally produced goods. Nature, fishing waters and bathing area. Our local church, Lunde, has Peder Odne's painting, Myhre Smie, where you can buy wrought iron products directly from the smithy. Proximity to Synnfjell - with Spåtind at the top1414 MPH. The village of Dokka 15 km from the house -but more detail trading business and not least Dokka camping with its music and dancing event. We have Dokkadelta with possibility for fishing, canoeing, paddling etc. Or a ride on Valdresbanen. Several local small-scale producers of food- feel free to ask me!
