Hoel Gård – The Manor by Lake Mjøsa

Welcome to Hoel Gård – The Manor by Lake Mjøsa

​​​​Hoel Gård – the manor by lake Mjøsa, is beautifully located on the Nes peninsula with a magnificent view over Norway's largest lake that reflects lush fields in one of Norway's best-preserved cultural landscapes.

The host family Sandberg uses the many buildings and their cultural history to welcome guests to courses and conferences, small and large companies, accommodation and cultural events – summer and winter. The host will be happy to help you tailor events to your wishes. At Hoel Gård you ensure you and your connections some of the best our region has to offer.

BE OUR GUEST!
Hoel Gård hosts many large companies and gatherings, but you are just as welcome as an overnight guest on your own. Enjoy the peace, stroll in the avenue, take a dip in Mjøsa, eat a better dinner in stately surroundings and sleep well in one of our charming rooms.

Get up for a hearty farm breakfast, go for a run in the countryside, or rent a bike and take a trip around Helgøya. We also lend kayaks, rowing boats and canoes, so it is possible to explore our own little island outside the farm or the surrounding area.

SHORTEST WAY FROM THE FIELD TO YOUR TABLE
We never take shortcuts in the kitchen, except when it comes to the ingredients. The chefs use what the farm and the surrounding area have to offer, from potatoes, barley and chicken to rhubarb and grapes from the garden. Otherwise, we choose the best Norwegian ingredients from Norways top shelf. Regardless of whether you want an intimate lunch for 6 people or a large party with 160 guests, we guarantee that the food is prepared in our kitchen, with delicious flavors.

BATH HOUSE, SAUNA AND HOT TUB
Right down by the water's edge and Mjøsa as our nearest neighbour, you will find our bathhouse, located in connection with our bathing jetty. Offering peace and well-being, this house offers a fireplace lounge for relaxation and quality time with the lapping of waves right outside the door. The house is inspired by an old summer barn that stood there in the 19th century, and the remains of an old potato flour factory have been used in the project. The building was completed in autumn 2024, and was designed by architect Geir Dingstad at BASE Arkitekter. The interior designer is Corniche Interiørdesign.

The sauna adjacent to the bathhouse is inspired by the farm's own potato cellar and resembles a built-in vault/cave that blends perfectly into the terrain. The sauna connects you closely to nature and Mjøsa. Treat yourself to a delicious and relaxing time by the water's edge. After some time in the sauna, it is refreshing to have a delicious bath in Mjøsa followed by a good and warm experience in our outdoor hot tub. The bath house, sauna and hot tub are available to all guests, but must be booked in advance.
