The house is in Saksun, which is north of Strømø. It is surrounded by very beautiful nature with high mountains. When you live in Saksun, you also have good opportunities to drive around most of the islands in the Faroe Islands. The house was built in the 1940. Each floor is 40 sqm. In the middle floor there is the kitchen, Bathroom and the living room. On the top floor there are 3 bedrooms. In the largest of the rooms there is a double bed. In the 2 other rooms there are built-in beds. The special feature of the house is that the original style from 1840 is preserved. Renovations have been made since then, so the house is today in a fine condition. All modern facilities are in the house. In the basement there is a washing machine and a clothes rack. When you rent this cottage you get to made beds. Towels and some basic items are also included in the price...
I have been a host for a few years now and I find it exciting to rent out to different people. likewise, I myself love to travel around the world and experience the world in a more present way than one does with the more traditional travels. When renting this cottage I am always available in case there is anything my guests need to know more about. Sinserely Torgerð
Saksun is a wonderfully remote hillside village and is one of the most worthwhile destinations in the country. Known for its tranquil atmosphere, the tiny village of 14 inhabitants offers amazing views of the surrounding mountains. It is obvious to explore the mountains, which are right outside the door of the cottage. The Nearest village, which is Hvalvik is located 11 km from Saksun. There are no fixed local buses running to Saksun. Nearest shopping opportunities are located in Oyrabakka, about 15 km from Saksun. To get the most out of the holiday, it's important that you have a car so you can get around. There is free parking associated with the house.
