Formerly a traditional farm, some of the cottages on Vestre Sorken Feriegård have been welcoming guests for as long as 250 years. Listed as a cultural site, the farm is located in Engerdal on the shores of Lake Femunden. The farm cottages on Vestre Sorken Feriegård are timber-built and have rustic interiors. Some have a fireplace, while all accommodation shares bathroom facilities and all come with a sitting area and a radio. Lake Femunden is the second largest lake in Norway, and guests can rent boats from the property for fishing or exploring the lake. Hiking and cycling are also popular in the area, while the Swedish skiing area of Idre Fjäll is only an hour’s drive away. There is a small farm museum on-site open in the summer, and the Femundsmarka National Park is only 30 km away. Both Trondheim and Oslo are within 4 hours’ drive of the property.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.9 for a two-person trip.

    Comfortable beds. Friendly host. Cheap. The houses are old, so we didn't expect luxury, but we didn't miss anything. There was even games to play.

    Very nice place. We stayed in a 300 years old building, so it was not very modern, but still comfortable with all we needed. Kitchen is adequate for simple hot and cold meals. Host was friendly. Very nice touch to keep cars away from the old...

    The lake view and historic farm buildings were peaceful. We even had an opportunity to eat some lake white fish and video a herd of reindeer.

    Excellent value for money, an intriguing setting with fantastic forest (and reindeer!) outside. We ended up staying in one half of the old farmhouse which features, among other things, running water! We'd definitely stay again if driving to...

    This is an excellent option in winter to enjoy cross country skiing or snowshoeing anywhere in the truly beautiful surroundings. Skis and boots can be rented across the border in Sweden in Grövelsjön, but Stefan (the host) might find an...
