Check-in / Check-out
Our check-in time at Deplar Farm is 3:00 PM, and check-out time is at 10:00 AM. Please be aware that early and late checkouts are subject to availability and can only be confirmed 24 hours prior to your arrival.
Communal Dining
Our communal dinners are a special aspect of the Deplar Farm experience. Your thoughtfully prepared, seasonally relevant dishes will be served at our long Nordic dining table. At Deplar, we take great pride in preserving and celebrating the cultural heritage of the long Nordic table, which draws inspiration from the ancient Great Halls where travelers, traders, and warriors would gather to share their tales and forge new friendships. If you have any alternative dining preferences you’d like to explore, please don’t hesitate to inform the Eleven Sales team.
Fly Fishing Details
Our rates include fishing for small Arctic char and occasional brown trout in the lake and river on the Deplar Farm property. Any additional angling for Atlantic Salmon in the Husey, Holkna, or Fljotta rivers is subject to limited availability and will incur an additional cost for the fishing permit and fishing guide specific to the river. If you are interested in fishing for Atlantic Salmon, please inform your Sales Manager during the inquiry stage so that we can provide advice on availability before your confirmation.
Alcohol Policy
We offer a full bar menu available for purchase. Please refrain from bringing your own alcohol onto the premises, as it does not comply with our liquor license.
Gratuity
While gratuity is not expected at our properties, guests wishing to leave a tip for the Deplar Farm Team may consider 6% to 10% of their total stay cost, we can add it to your final bill and charge your card on file at checkout. This amount will be distributed among all staff who have contributed to your stay.
