Taking a sauna is a great way to relax. For many of us this is a given, but for beginners it might be worth some tips :)

At beautiful Follsjø, Notodden Municipality has created a beautiful beach on the other side of the bay from The Homestead . Here it is well organized for young and old!

Pop-up glamping at Follsjø, Telemark this summer! Perfect adventure for couples and families with children. Swimming, canoeing and sauna available.

The Homestead Jonrud is located a couple of kilometers from the farm. Here time stands still and tranquility can descend upon visitors. Some modern facilities are still good to have, now they have drilled for water and built a bathroom and kitchen in the barn.

Bolkesjø Gaard has its own protected area, Bjønnestille. The forest around Follsjø has been widely discussed in the media in recent years, most recently as the pine forest's answer to "Jurassic Park".
