Our home

Our house is located by the fjord ("Drammensfjorden") some 19 km south of Drammen/55 km from Oslo. The house was built in 1965, but was refurbished in 2000-2006.
The house is at typical Norweigian wooden house and has 6 bedroom (2 in basement/4 on mainfloor).
Bedrooms are singleones except from masterbedroom.
However, additional beds can be placed in the downstairs bedrooms. There are two livingrooms in our house. The one downstairs has a state-of-the-art PC with broadband connection.

Where is it?

Your neighbourhood

The town Svelvik is a small place, next to the fjord. In the centre of town there are shops, pubs and restaurants. There is also a bank/postoffice. However, one should concider going to Drammen (Norway's 6'th langest town) to go shopping for special items. What to do in Svelvik? The fjord with it's strong current/strait is the second strongest in Norway. Fishing here is quite good. One could go to Oslo to visit museums/art galleries or perhaps go by car to see places in southern Norway.
