Some info about the Sandviken-area:
Just over the road:
Sandviksboder Coastal Centre and the Norwegian Fisheries Museum is housed in the old Grade II listed warehouses from the 1600s and 1700s in Sandviken in Bergen. Here are therefore some of the oldest and best preserved warehouses in Bergen, some are older than those on Bryggen. Dried fish stalls are a unique heritage from the time Bergen was the center of a worldwide stockfish exports. The outdoor area is open to the public. On land and in the harbor, visitors can contemplate the diversity of heritage boats. Most are old, but some are more recent copies. The Norwegian Fisheries Museum is just over the road. There is also a lunch restaurant there BOD 24, open during the museums opening times. A little further out in Sandviken is Old Bergen Museum, a reconstructed town with about 50 wooden houses from the 17 -, 18 - and 1900s. Old Bergen Museum was opened in 1949.

Activities
Short distance to hiking, among other things, Stoltzekleiven, Fjellveien, Sandvikfjellet and Fløien.
• Stoltzekleiven has a height difference of 313.5 meters - spread over approx. 910 lm. The track has a pitch of between 20 and 40%. There are about 800 steps! Stoltzekleiven Up is a yearly race arranged every September.
• Fjellveien is perhaps the most famous walking route of Bergen, passing among others Stoltzekleiven, Mon Plaisir, Tippetue and Fløisvingene. Here you get a nice view of the approach to Bergen. Fjellveien continues past Skansen, Kalfaret and stops at Bellevue. 4.6 km long, mostly traffic free and flat terrain.
Bathing:
• Sandviken Sea Baths in Old Bergen Museum, is open all summer. Small and cozy facilities.
• Helleneset, large recreation area on Eidsvågneset. With such children's pool, diving board and cut climbing wall. Bus 5 from Sandvikstorget. Blue-flag awarded beach!
• Nordnes seawater pool in the center, a heated swimming pool, changing rooms with showers and sauna. Staffed by lifeguards. Traditional and charming!

You can park just outside our house;-) in our area (Sandviken) its residential-parking only between 08-23 on weekdays, until 17 on Saturdays. Sundays it is free. There are different options for guests. You can park and pay with coins at the 4 metres outside our house, which is the most expensive (22nok/hour), buy tickets with coins or visa-card (10nok/hour) or there are some special-cards which I can buy on request: 40nok for afternoon/evening(17-23) or 100nok for one day (24h). So it depends on how long you plan to have your car parked :-) If you are still in doubt, you can look up Sandvikstorget on Tripadvisor and read our latest reviews! Winner of "Certificate of excellence" 2014-16 and "Travellers choice" 2017-19!

We are both from Bergen, (Johan 1/2 English) and met 29 years ago. (that`s when the profile-photo was taken.) We have lived in this house the last 16 years. 9 years ago we bought "the rest of the house", and have rented out our 2 apartments to tourist and other travellers, for the past 8 years. Johan has worked with location scouting for films in the Bergen-area for 15 years, so he knows the city and the area around Bergen well! He has lived with an Italian family as a cultural exchange student in Milano-Italy (still speaks some italian:-) and studied in Cardiff-Wales... We have also spent 1/2 a year near Cadiz- in the Costa de la luz-area of Spain, so we understand a little spanish. We have 2 girls, and we all live upstairs. We love travelling, spend most of our holidays in south England, but have also visited Spain, Italy, Croatia, Thailand etc. We ourselves enjoy staying in apartments when abroad, so that we can eat some meals "at home" and have some more space than an ordinary hotel-room, hopefully you will enjoy our apartments, we will try to make your stay the very best - Welcome:-)
