The old house of the farm Storsæter Gård! Gammelstua is the former main house on the farm, built in the 1800s. The house is partly renovated. You hav most facilities, exept television, so you can have a nice brake from a busy everyday life and just be present. The stairs squeaks and the sealing is low, just like the old houses were built, charming! Take the morning coffee on the stairs outside, play cards when the rain is pouring down, or a have a cozy chat around the kitchen table. We can drive you from or too the boat from Svolvær or Bodø, and we have bikes for rent. Here you can enjoy peace and quiet, only interrupted from the farmlife accaionally. We run a sheep farm, and have to do our work, and you are living in the middle of the farm. Nearby there are several impressive mountains, and a beautiful beach on the island. The house can be a little bit cold in the winter, but it is ok when you fire in the fireplace. You get firewood for free here at the farm. It can be nice with at pair of woolsocks or slippers.

We are a family of six living on the farm, Filip and Julie and our 4 kids. The view is beautiful and the environment is peaceful. We run a sheep farm, but we also have chickens, dogs and a cat. We take the security of our animals very serious, so if you have visited a nother farm or have just arrived from a nother contry, you have to wait 48 hours to have contact with the animals on the farm.

Gammelstua is located on the beautiful island Engeløya in Steigen, in the North of Norway. There are possibilities of hiking, cross contry skiing, swimming in the sea, cajaqing, paddling, fishing or just relaxing. We can give you the information for boat or kayak rental. You can rent bikes from us, and travel around the island. We also have a beautiful beach called Bøsanden on Engeløya.
