This experience, in a nutshell
Contrary to popular belief, the 'polar night' offers several hours of extraordinary light, as well as the Northern Lights in the darkest hours.
Our sailing adventures will be during these hours, while the rest of the time we will take advantage of the comfort of our shore base on the island of Vannoya, with its rooms, windows overlooking the aurora, wood-burning stoves and a well-stocked library.
During the navigation we will also follow orcas and whales in their annual migration and visit remote marinas along the coast at the end of the world
Our base, located on a private peninsula of 15 hectares, also has its own nine-hole golf course. Not always accessible due to snow, but we were able to play in every season of the year.
In the gallery you can find some photos of the base.
The two houses are in the center of the Keila Peninsula, on a 15-hectare plot formerly used as a farm, with about a kilometer of private coastline, and a lighthouse.
We like to think that the center of our activities is an event in space where time does not flow and it is not necessary to do anything, but only to merge with the wind, the sea, the prairie, the snow and the rocks that surround us. And always immersed in the poetry of light.
The Casa Rossa accommodates travelers with a large living room with a wood-burning stove and large windows overlooking the sea. Guests have free access to the kitchen and two large bathrooms. WiFi is available in this house.
The House of Books relaxes travelers with hundreds of travel books, atlases, maps, and nautical charts. It is also heated by classic Norwegian wood-burning stoves. This house is purposely offline.
On the grounds of the property there are several trails, a golf course and several viewpoints and birdwatching, as well as the lighthouse.
