    The host Iancu went above and beyond to make his place low cost for travelers. As he said “when you make other people happy, you are happy”. His place is cozy, clean, like a family house.

Beautifull villa surrounded by forest and with view on the mountain and sea, Very close to the lake with fishing posibility for trout and char. The sea is also very close 100m walk with view on fjord. Very good spot to hunt Aurora lights during the winter period,ofc I can join and assist,since I have some favorite places myself. Very good place to fish cod. Posibility of having guided tour if there is staying for more than 2 nights. The relax area in the house have chimney where we can make fire and just relax. In the house will find also an Relax and massage chair with more than 20 different programs with massage
On request, I can offer tours on the mountain or in fishing areas, possibly we can go to see the aurora lights around If the staying is longer than 4-5 days we can arrange also boat tours around the area. Also on longer stayings we can arrange for free tours to aurora borealis lights.
Bring the whole family to this wonderful place with lots of room for fun. Fabulous mountain and lake views, ideal conditions for trout fishing. The ocean is only 200 m away, very good places for cod fishing sometimes salmon. The house is located 61 km from Harstad and 48 km from Narvik. Evenes/Harstad Airport only 40 minutes drive Electric car charger available for free, Free wifi, the house is very spacious.
