Rytne is a farm dating back to the Middle Ages, carefully restored to receive guests from the 21st century. Comfort and historical surroundings create a very special and unique accommodation. It is the perfect location to experience Norwegian nature, situated above the fiord Dalsfjorden and at the foot of the mountain Storehesten/Kvamshesten (1209 masl). You can add on a wilderness bath for a romantic evening under the stars - or a "pool party" with friends or family!

What an incredible find! My fiancé, our dog, and I stayed here 2 nights and enjoyed every second. The Mountain Farm overlooks the stunning Bygstad valley below, and above are easy to access hiking trails . It's a cozy home where we enjoyed cooking, the wood-burning fireplace, and of course, soaking in the outdoor heated tub while taking in the views. What a unique experience! The home itself has really cool history, and feels like stepping back in time with it's traditional Norwegian decor, yet still luxurious. Mari is a wonderful host, who anticipates her guests every needs and the home was well equipped with everything we needed. On our last morning before check out, she was kind enough to tell us the history behind the farm and the valley, which included some surprising Viking tails. Would love to come back during Christmas time! Thank you so much for having us Mari!
