Brimi sæter

Central Norway


Arne Brimi's reinvention of a summer mountain farm is a pleasure. It offers simple accommodation spread across old farm buildings, including a hay-loft, barn and a couple of tepee-style lavvu in the yard. There are private rooms, as well as dorm-style 'brisk' accommodation, with bunks built in alongside one wall. Nightly meals are, unsurprisingly, rustic and delicious.
