The Rabbe barn is an exclusive architect designed and "one-of-a-kind-handmade" apartment with a panorama view towards the village center, the historical stave church, the lake and the surrounding mountains. Whatever your background is - you will probably find this place rather unique. The standard is high and the appartment was built with respect to the norwegian TEK10 classification (e.g.: a low energy consumption for heating). The restoring/convertion of the barn into a "house" was done partly by using existing barn, partly with new material and partly reuse of wood, doors and tools from the historical farming done by family ancestors. The barn is easy accessed by car or a 200 meter short walk from the bus stop (e.g NOR-WAY bussekspress). On request: If you need more space/beds we can offer an extra room in the barn with toilet and a private entrance, suitable for 2-3 persons. The convertion project of the barn won an architecture award in 2015: "It is creative, innovative, it is well-adapted to the old part of the building and follows local building style without copying. It uses local materials and contributes to the new use of old buildings."

I'm an engineer working in the oil industry. The barn became a business-hobby. I love outdoor activities: Please do not hesitate to ask if any questions related to alpine- and cross country skiing, "topptur", hiking or hunting. Fishing is not my speciality but I have a brief idea of local trout fishing opportunities.

Quiet and cosy farmland at the foot of nearby mountains including opportunities for hiking, cross country skiing and alpine skiing. Close to the famous Trolltunga, Valley of Waterfalls, Låtefoss and Hardangervidda national park
