This is how the announcement starts from N\u00e6r\u00f8ya AS, which is now looking for a driver for the culturally historic island in the north of Tr\u00f8ndelag.  The island houses one of Norway&#8217;s oldest medieval stone churches, and is one of Tr\u00f8ndelag&#8217;s most important cultural monuments.  &#8211; We are looking for someone who can take part in the development of N\u00e6r\u00f8ya, and who can add expertise &#8211; both in terms of farming, but also in terms of the experience industry, says Camilla V\u00e5gan.

Farmer &#8211; and host N\u00e6r\u00f8ya AS keeps wild sheep on the property, which has been run as a private farm since 1907. What the company is looking for is someone who has knowledge of sheep farming and farming &#8211; as well as an interest in forestry work.  But above all, the company wants to have a good host on the island.  In other words, it is far from an ordinary replacement or farm worker they are looking for.  There are no other permanent residents on the island &#8211; but the list of people who have lived here in the past includes, among others, Petter Dass.  &#8211; We want whoever represents us to welcome people in a good way, and to be interested in showing and guiding, says V\u00e5gan.  As the operator of N\u00e6r\u00f8ya Church, you get one of Norway&#8217;s oldest medieval churches as your closest, and only, neighbour.  Photo: N\u00e6r\u00f8ya AS She describes the job more as a way of life, and adds that the owners have high ambitions for the future.  &#8211; N\u00e6r\u00f8ya has a strong cultural history in the region, and has a lot of history to play on.  It should be the starting point for the island to be developed within travel and tourism.  From the Netherlands and Iceland Work is now underway to provide the necessary infrastructure such as electricity and water, as well as looking after the buildings.  &#8211; When it is in place &#8211; we want to build more facilities that enable more people to come to visit.  As well as establishing more offers that can play on the cultural history, and provide an offer beyond what we have in the region today.  Here you will find N\u00e6r\u00f8ya, the culturally historic island on the Namdal coast in Tr\u00f8ndelag.  V\u00e5gan tells of a great response after the announcement was published.  &#8211; We have received inquiries both from people in Norway and abroad.  Among others from the Netherlands and Iceland.  So there are many who see this as a good opportunity, says V\u00e5gan.  The strait between Svin\u00f8ya (right) and N\u00e6r\u00f8ya (left) is called Martnassundet.  N\u00e6r\u00f8ya has no road connection, but the crossing by boat to the mainland takes less than five minutes.  Photo: Torger Ramfjord With 5,000 acres and several kilometers of chalk-white beaches &#8211; she thinks it will be a good fit for both couples and families with children to move here.  This despite the fact that there is no road connection.  &#8211; If you&#8217;re going to live like that, you should enjoy yourself over time.  So we will make it possible for a couple to get an income.  Here you have very flexible options to live on fantastic property on your own island.  But in addition, it is centrally located &#8211; close to, among other things, R\u00f8rvik.  The general manager believes that it will be suitable for both couples and families with children to move to the island.

V\u00e5gan describes the announcement as unique, and adds that there is also something else you will get to know about who runs N\u00e6r\u00f8ya farm.  You will have to take part in the commitment linked to the restoration of N\u00e6r\u00f8ykirka.  It dates from the 12th century, is listed, and has been exposed to fire three times over time.  Work to secure the church tower is now well under way &#8211; after large parts of the wall collapsed in November 2016. In 2016, parts of the tower wall collapsed into what is one of Norway&#8217;s oldest medieval stone churches.  Photo: Private \u2013 The restoration will come to NOK 19 million, says V\u00e5gan.  She adds that the local funding is in place after work from voluntary stakeholders and a separate working group.  It is needed to trigger government funds.  &#8211; It&#8217;s really good.  Now it is up to the state to come up with its share of the funding.<br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nrk.no\/trondelag\/leter-etter-driver-til-den-historiske-oya-naeroya-i-naeroysund-i-trondelag-1.16097591\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">ttn-69 <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;N\u00e6r\u00f8ya farm is looking for a driver\/drivers who want to live on the Namdal coast&#8217;s most beautiful island&#8221;.
