Shops in Vollen
It’s always fun to wander around the village, discovering the various shops and workshops. You will decide yourself which you enjoy most, but just to mention my own favourites:
Rhomb
In the building to the right in the picture above, you’ll find lots of beautiful gift articles for sale, but visiting this shop in the centre of the village, will allow you to decide for yourself if this is the shop in the whole country of Norway with the most wonderful view!
Herligheten and Lykkelig
Herligheten is our fashion shop, where you’ll find lots of really beautiful clothes. However this isn’t the only place you can buy fashion garments in Vollen. Lykkelig, beside the chemist’s shop has lots of lovely clothes too. Right beside Lykkelig, you will find Fortuna which is one of the three hairdressers in the village – Fortuna sells a great selection of products for hair care.

Hebbe Lilles Galleri
This is a tiny art gallery. It is run by the artist, Øivind Jorfald whose humorous paintings are great fun (there’s one in your bed-sitting room) and they put their finger on many aspects of Norwegian life. The shop is only open at weekends but you can phone the artist for a special viewing. If you are in Vollen on a Saturday morning, DO watch for the cuckoo on the outside north wall at noon!!!
