We are a family of four who left secure jobs in the city and moved out here about six years ago. Else Marie, a former intensive care nurse and Svein Kristian, a former pilot, replaced a hectic life in the city in favour of more time for family. Our girls, Sofie and Josefine, are thriving in the village of Gutvik, a small village with a big heart and great solidarity.

Family dressed up - we look forward to meeting you!

Else Marie, Sofie, Josefine and Svein Kristian welcomes you dearly to Øvergården – for celebrations and everyday life!

Through engagement in the farm life the service aims to enhance coping, encourage development and increase the overall well-being of a numerous group of people. Typical users of this service are children and young grown-ups, the disabled and elderly people.

Wild Animals

The most common marine mammals in the area are porpoises, seals and killer whales.

The most common land mammals are moose, roe deer, lynx, fox, marters and lemmings. There is also a great amount of varied bird life. We once observed 14 eagles at the same time. You will have lots of opportunity to see and photograph eagles or other birds.
