Vinje Cultural Area: tradition and modernity
Welcome to three special cabins in Vinje; Kårstoga at Vesås, Heim at Jordi and Mannestoga at Plassen.
Vinje is a modern society today, but it has also preserved and developed the traditions which have given the community its identity. The Vesås, Jordi and Plassen farms lie within the Vinje Cultural Area. The area is so named because of its unusually rich cultural past, strong traditions and dynamic cultural environment. This is an asset for those of us who live here, for our guests and for future inhabitants.
Vinje's Cultural Area includes, among other things:

The hidden Telemark
We, your hosts at Vesås, Jordi and Plassen, will also be your hosts in the Vinje Cultural Area. We will guide you through both the natural and the cultural landscapes and away from the streams of tourists; we are well acquainted with hidden Telemark where painters, poets, composers and collectors of folk traditions have found so many treasures throughout the ages.
The three cabins each have their own character, but all are as well equipped and comfortable as a house: good beds, radio,TV, modern, fully equipped kitchen, dishwasher and washing machine. The cabins lie at a safe distance from the road and are close to working farms which have animals. There is plenty of opportunity for outdoor activities,winter and summer, including fishing in the lake,Vinjevatn. 30-40 min drive to the ski centers of Rauland, Hovden and Vågsli. Your hosts offer special nature or culture related programs which vary throughout the year. Contact us for more information!
