Siloen, gifts & coffee shop, Telemark

Found another must stop spot on the E134, this time just west of the town of Seljord, literally on the main road. It´s full of charm and, not really a silo for bulk storage, more an Aladdin´s cave for some of the nicest things I´ve seen gathered in one place for a long time including products for children, kitchens and interiors generally.

Once you´ve wound your way from room to room around the spacious, atmospheric building, that looks out over a farm building and garden, saying not more than once “ooh, look at this…” you come back to the entrance where you can order a drink and a bite to eat. Many of the products are eco-friendly, organic and/or based on fair trade and it´s just a fab stop on an otherwise heavily trafficked main road.

Not only that, but if nature calls, they have the cutest guest toilet I´ve ever seen in a shop, with a basket for individual towels and a creative solution for showing whether the look is occupied or not!

For opening times I suggest you check with the shop directly, but standard opening times appear to be 10-17 Mon-Fri and 10-15 Sat.
