The Olsen Guesthouse

Olsen Guesthouse is idyllically located on Veiholmen, right on the edge of the open sea, and is part of Olsens Pensjonat & Guesthouses, alongside the Røbekk Guesthouse, the Molo Boathouse, and the Holten House. The guesthouse is situated in the heart of the fishing village, offering great views of the open sea from the cozy glass veranda. Here, you're close to the lively street scene – sit on the porch on a sunny day, and you'll quickly meet locals and other passing guests.

Spacious and sociable – but also space to relax

Olsen Guesthouse has three spacious double rooms and two cozy, but small, single rooms. Guests share the two bathrooms in the house, and a narrow staircase leads up to a homely upper floor. When the wind howls outside, you can light the fireplace and enjoy the view from a cozy living room. The house has several common areas where you can either retreat and find peace or strike up a conversation with other travelers.

A lively guesthouse with common areas

Just like in a traditional guesthouse, you'll share the common areas with other guests, unless you’ve rented the whole house with friends, family, or colleagues. The well-equipped kitchen makes cooking easy, and the inviting glass veranda quickly becomes a meeting point for good conversations and enjoyable meals.

Perfect for small groups or workation

Olsenhuset is ideal for groups of 6-8 people seeking an authentic experience on Veiholmen. Just across the street is the communal area Dalaosen, where you can barbecue and relax with guests from the other guesthouses on the island. If you're looking for a place to work "from home" outside the peak season, Olsenhuset is the perfect spot. With reliable internet, a spacious workspace around the house’s large dining table on the glass veranda, a well-stocked and friendly local shop, a social and welcoming community, and great hiking opportunities, work and leisure can be seamlessly combined at Veiholmen. Contact Olsens Pensjonat for a great offer on a longer stay.

Experience Veiholmen – as beautiful in the sunshine as in the storm

Veiholmen is one of Norway’s most vibrant fishing villages, just as charming on a calm summer day as when the sea roars in the autumn. Explore the narrow streets, join a guided tour, paddle through the archipelago, or go on a sea eagle safari.

Sleep well with the open sea as your neighbor

With comfy beds and soft bedding, you’ll sleep well to the sound of the waves. Olsens Pensjonat & Guesthouses aims to contribute to sustainable tourism and encourages guests to stay at least two nights to fully experience the atmosphere and peace of Veiholmen.
