Explore the locations

The typical Norwegian characteristics of minimalism, community and tradition, combined with modern, balanced design, await you in all three locations.

Strandbaren Stokkøya

In a traditional fishing village on the tiny island of Stokkøya in Trondheimsfjorden you will find Strandbaren (the beach bar), located on one of Norway's most beautiful beaches. The building consists of large glass surfaces facing the sea, and on a clear summer evening you can glimpse flashes of light from Halten Lighthouse, which is located about 16 nautical miles to the northwest. Much of the wood used in its construction was sourced from the surrounding forest.

Enjoy a delicious meal with the sea right outside your window!
