I'm born in 1974- so when the house is 100, I will turn 50 great party ahead! All my life I have been interessted in practical work and DIY. After renovating a small farm before this house I got a good handy experience. I also run a agricultural shop, built from start and learned a quite few lessons about business. I really love a challenge, that is what this Villa really could offer. I live here myself as well and is ready anytime to fix somthing if needed or help all my kind guests. For future there is of course many plans and oppertuneties for this place, next mission is a white marble fontain in the garden and general garden work to make the surroundings even more beutiful. And how do I get the time? Well, this is my great hobby so a little work evry day, weekends and holidays in use gives progress. And to relax and clear my mind- I take a little trip at my KTM motorsycle 😊

Villa Hasselbakken was built in 1924 by Axel Bjørnstad who is from this area. He designed and built several building in Norway. There was two sisters who owned and run this guesthouse for many years. It has been a lot of different kinds of retreetments and business after the søsters sold the house through the times. At one time it also lived a priest here. Lots of good energies in this house! I bought the house in october 2020, it was strongly in need to get a lot of love and care, after not been taken special care over a decade. The house spoke directly to my hart and love at first sight. After two years of renovating the house is now back to it's orgin mission as guest house. With mix of moder and old and charmimg style. As this house is close to 100 years now it's not sound proof- but a living guesthouse where you can feel relaxed, homely and like a big family in great surroundings.

The neighbourhood is a quiet area, with historical Iron mines,, smaragd and gold mines. Lovly nature and a great lake, Mjøsa- where the old steam boat sailes in summer season "Skibladner". There is a very nice bading place 3 km north of Hasselbakken, with barbeque options and marked hikes as well.
