Aalan Gård

Visiting this place felt like visiting grandma's house - total homey vibes! The backyard garden was straight fire, and their greenhouse for herbs and veggies was the icing on the cake. But let's be real, the star of the show was the cheese (sooo good!) and that ridiculously adorable playful pup - I died from all the attention and playtime!

A gem in the Lofoten, a beautiful farm where, among other things, cheese is made. A small shop with delicious (home-dried) tea and herbs. We had a lovely tour around the farm. Followed by a cup of coffee and self made pastry. Highly recommended!

We went here with 4 young children on February 2019, winter. We were welcomed by very friendly dogs who wants to play with us. Then we went inside and greeted by the owner. This place during winter is mostly about cheese making. We got to see how cheese is made and get to cheese tasting. The cheese are delicious for me who is not really cheese eater. Then we went into the farm to see some goats. The kids love these goats the most.

Cozy farm with nice homemade cake and tea

A cozy farm with a herb garden, goats and other farm animals. We dropped by on Wednesday afternoon and were treated to a cheese tasting and mini tour of the cheese-making process by its hospitable and friendly owners. The cheese was very fresh.

This goat dairy farm wound up being a surprise highlight in Lofoten! We drove up at ~4pm on a Thursday and wandered into the farm store, where we met the owner, Aalan, learned the history of his family farm and about how Norwegian brown cheese (brunost) is made, and were treated to a generous tasting of every kind of cheese they carry. The brown goat cheese is unmissable (and you can get it on a freshly made waffle there as well!)

Lovely shop with a very friendly owner. We got to watch their dog here the goats back down the mountain! And of course, fantastic cheeses!

The cheese is very nice. Be aware that if you want to have lunch, you need to book in advance.
