About this property
Swiss-style cottage from 1880 by Hattarvågen
Welcome to this Swiss-style log cabin from 1880, idyllically situated on Borgøy. Since the cabin is located on an island with no road access, you can easily reach it by ferry from Steinsvika.
Here you can enjoy the view of Hattarvågen from one of the two porches and experience how the weather and colors shift in the sky to the north. The apple orchard is surrounded by a secure hedge that provides peace and quiet.
The cabin features a log interior that creates an authentic atmosphere. From the hill behind the house, you have a panoramic view of the mountains and hills that surround the beautiful bay with its granite cliffs that change color throughout the seasons.
You can wander freely in the spacious garden and enjoy the silence. Eplehagen and the area around the cabin invite you to spend relaxing moments outdoors.
Borgøy has lovely gravel roads and trails you can use to explore the island, as well as beautiful rocky shores and swimming coves. The hike to Borgøynuten, 300 meters above sea level, is challenging, but the view is unforgettable. Experience the same picturesque gem that the artist Lars Hertervig captured on canvas.
