Overnatting

The Havlyst garden

The Havlyst Garden is an enchanting garden and a unique park area, located overlooking the fjord.

The garden is a portal into an enchanted reality where you will find everything from the archetypal Norwegian to the more exotic: an avenue of flowers, herb garden, fruit and rose groves, meadows, and arboretum.

Everything is taken care of by our dedicated staff who work all year round to bring out the best nature has to offer, in all seasons.

The garden also contains sculptures ranging from ancient times, representing mythology and classicism through to our contemporary era. Here you can experience works by artists such as Frans and Nico Widerberg, Peter Linde, Marian Heyerdahl, and Per Ung.
