Meet Elin Sofie Lorvik and Jo Kristian Kvernland – the couple behind Vestigården Lorvika. As experience-farmers and entrepreneurs, they create unique encounters through storytelling, meaningful conversations, and shared experiences.

Elin Sofie is an aesthete with a keen eye for detail, interior design, culinary experiences, and sustainability. Jo Kristian is a beer enthusiast and football fan who finds peace in the fjord and cultural landscape. Both have backgrounds in journalism and work in communication and business development.

Since 2022, they have transformed Vestigården into an experience hub with pop-up events at the Stabbur and the unique Birdhouse Cabin – a sought-after treetop accommodation that has hosted guests from over 20 countries. Visitors have included members of an Arab royal family as well as Norwegian celebrities. Situated in the heart of a culinary hotspot, Lorvika offers all guests food and drinks made from world-class ingredients sourced from local farmers and producers.

Vestigården’s journey has only just begun, and Elin Sofie and Jo Kristian are determined to make Lorvika a destination you’ll never forget.
