Description

Henseid Skole, vacation in a school !!! Going to school was never so much fun!

The Henseid Skole is a former elementary school built in the year 1951.

It lies in the small hamlet Henseid or Henneseid. This falls under the municipality

Drangedal in the county of Telemark. The Henseid Skole did the last service in

the year 2005, then it was empty and there was lack of maintenance. What was

in contrast with the beautiful surroundings of Henseid. In the spring of 2011, the

school opened its doors, completely renovated. But for tourists who are looking for

a special place for their well-deserved vacation. The school has old cozy atmosphere

of the Norwegian school.

The Henseid Skole has three large classrooms that serve as apartments. These rooms

are fully furnished and feature a seating area, a dining area, sleeping area and a kitchen.

The kitchen is equipped with fridge, oven / microwave, hob, kettle and coffeemaker.

The showers and toilets are located in the hallway, just like at school. The rooms can

be booked up to 6 people. These are equipped with a bunk bed and 2 bed. In short great

affordable apartments in a unique area of Norway. It is also possible to book a breakfast

basket during your stay in the Henseid Skole. The Henseid Skole-apartment guesthouse

is open all year round. A local-apartment for rent per night, weekend, midweek and week.

about us

This property is occupied and run by a young family that is ge'migreerd Netherlands. In

the year 2011, the doors of the apartment / guesthouse opened for people looking for rest,

relaxation, or just holidays. The Henseid Skole apartment / guesthouse is located in the

former school of the hamlet Henseid, in the municipality Drangedal. Drangedal is a very

wooded area with many lakes in the county of Telemark. When you hire Henseid Skole

no room but a schoolroom, where the 'skole-style' as much as possible is preserved. You

imagine yourself in the feeling of his school. The atmosphere of the building ensures warmth

and coziness. Henseid located on the Provincialeweg 356 between Porsgrunn and Drangedal.

Here you will find the ideal environment for many activities such as exercise in the summer:

hiking, cycling and / or mountain biking, fishing and wildlife spotting.

And in the winter: skiing, cross county, ice fishing and wildlife spotting here.

In addition, Norway is fine and affordable to reach by car, motorcycle or airplane. Furthermore,

Norway has a good network of public transport in the region. Henseid Skole guests for a small
