HISTORY OF THE MANOR HOUSE
The Manor House is from 1890 and was the main point for everything going on in Hamnøy. There were cabins where the fishermen stayed while they were participating in the great "Lofot-Fishing". There was also a bakery where it was possible to get freshly baked bread, and a small shop (Krambua) where you could get what you needed.
The fish was landed at the pier and then exported to Europe and the rest of the world. Stockfish and clipfish were the main products for export.
In the beginning the fishing was done from wooden sailboats like "åttring", "fembøring" and smaller boats. After the introduction of motor powered boats around 1920, the sailboats were resigned. You can read more about this if you click on History or when you arrive :-)
MAKE YOUR VACATION COMFORTABLE
Cook your own food in the fully equipped kitchen, have a coffee on the balcony while you enjoy the view, or just relax in one of the living rooms.
