Storjord Farmstay Glamping

Absolutely loved every second!! Morten was extremely helpful and knowledgeable excellent location, we had moose dear and horses roaming around wild which was amazing to see. We experienced the northern lights for hour upon hours and got some great photos outside and from inside the dome. Previous reviews don't do this place justice, it is remote do research before coming we got a taxi from tromso very easily there and back. The dome will get cold in the night but not if you keep on top of the fire being lit, it's -5-10-15 outside at times if you use common sense you'll have An amazing experience. We were a family of 4, easily accommodated us all, we cooked our own food from the well stocked kitchen.

Wish we could have stayed longer.

Interesting experience Small well heated house next to the dome

Needed to feed a wood burner every hour in the dome, otherwise it gets cold very quickly as the dome itself is not well heat insulated and loses all the heat quickly. Hence the whole night I had to wake up every hour, with the help of my alarm clock, to throw a couple of logs of wood into the burner, which was quite stressful and ofc no good sleep. The experience overall is interesting and would be worthwhile, but not for such price - 300+ Euros for a sleepless night shoveling wood into the furnace like a stoker.

Design and location

İt was cold inside and heater was not enough

The location was spectacular and we saw the northern lights on the last day. The pod was beautiful and the fire was easy to light. The bedding was really warm as well! The toilet was very good and easy to use, as was the kitchen. The host was very quick to reply to any queries and friendly. Views were stunning.

The shower only gave out hot water very briefly. But it wasn't so cold it couldn't be used. Only other thing that could be improved on would be a better hearer in the pod for overnight when the fire has gone out.

Quiet place. Quick & easy communication with the owner.

We could not find the spot even we had a map. As we do glamping in our country, this stay was, to be honest, average. The property is not in the best condition - I write about the tiny house. (water drops inside, cracked window..etc) The artic house was fine, but in autumn/winter, where there is minus 6 oC in night, it is cold inside during the night even if you have fire and electric heating on. Also the tiny house is max for 3 people, we were family of 5 and it was not that comfortable.

The property was just beautiful! You are surrounded by nature and the housing was perfect for our needs. Very comfortable and cozy. Loved relaxing in the hot tub while enjoying the northern lights. We visited in October and enjoyed seeing the northern lights stretch across the sky. Just magical.

The only thing I wish I knew before staying on the farm was understanding the transportation and how frequent the buses came. We arrived very late and the next morning the soonest bus to pick us up was at 3:00 pm and we didn’t have any food. Had we known we would have rented a car for our stay to come and go as we please. We took a taxi and Morten did have someone to help us with transportation as well which we appreciated.

If you want to stay somewhere where you are far from the lights of the city, and have a good chance to see the aurora borealis, you should come here. You have to be ready for living in a luxurious tent, but remember it’s still nature and it’s not a hotel room so you don’t have all of the niceties. For me, I liked it better, it added and heightened, into the overall experience of seeing the aurora. Morten is fantastic and is very attentive to anything that you need . If you’re not sure about how something works he explains it very simply. Finally, he made some great recommendations for us on things to do during the day.
