Mannshausen

How Bodø Has Become Norway's New Culture Capital

"Manshausen, owned by polar explorer Børge Ousland, is a hard-to-reach island on the coastline north of Bodø. It offers a spectacular series of angular sea cabins that promise a secluded sanctuary overlooking the Grøtøyleia strait. Accessible via a scenic ferry ride or a four-hour drive from Bodø, each of the seven blond wood and glass lodgings provide a luxurious place to stay after days spent kayaking, scuba diving, cycling, fishing, or hiking. The on-site restaurant spotlights produce including freshly landed seafood, reindeer, and moose."
