Property information

New! - All of our rooms were recently renovated with Earth's 4 elements of matter (Earth, Water, Air and Fire), check them out in the gallery and pick the room you like the most! Welcome to a house that was originally built and used to receive fisherman with their fish but also a place for them to sleep when the weather was too wild to go out fishing. That means you will sleep like the real fisherman slept back in the days but with renovated and modern installations! The rooms are placed on the edge of the dock with an amazing view over the Ballstad harbor, and if you're lucky you can even see the amazing northern lights and take awesome pictures. In the high fishing season you can see the fishing boats go back and forth right outside the window. We provide all the basic amenities! In the kitchen we have a dishwasher, toaster and we have free coffee (Coffee maker and/or Espresso machine)! We also have a laundry room with washing machine and drier with free detergent provided.

Neighbourhood information

The Fish Factory is close to the grocery store, restaurants, boat rentals, galleries, hikes and mountain climbing trails!
