The architects' project text names the external cladding as pine panel treated with iron vitriol, describing a surface reaction that greys the wood within a couple of months.
On the outside there is pine panel, treated with iron vitriol, which creates a chemical process on the surface of the wood that resembles ageing; the wood turns grey in a couple of months because of a reaction with the daylight.

What is not publishedthe gaps we looked for and did not find
Air Ecology is empty, and two combustion sources are published alongside that silence. The property states that the old cow byre is the dining and sitting room with an open fire, and that the bathhouse has a wood fired sauna. Neither is credited here: both say something is burned near a guest, and nothing is published about filter grade, fresh air supply rate, carbon dioxide, particulate or volatile organic compound levels, or mould inspection. Water Integrity is empty: no water source, treatment train, shower filtration, drinking water delivery, or hot tub and steam sauna chemistry is published. A 2009 architecture page reproducing the property's own spa copy refers by legend to a local spring, states no source, no treatment and no analysis, and is not counted. EMF Harmony is empty: Wi-Fi is listed as a facility of the bathhouse, the conference room and the Writer's Lodge, which says nothing either way about guest room topology, and no field measurement, access point placement, shielded cabling or on request switch off is published. On Light Rhythm, both the architect and the property state that curtains are not used in the landscape rooms, and no blackout provision, colour temperature, flicker performance or lux figure is published; the hotel publishes an operating season from early March to early November. On Materials and Textiles, beyond the structural timber and the external iron vitriol treatment, the only finishes published are a transparent oil with black pigments on the interiors and painted colour cuts around the glass in the two log rooms, chosen with the artist Knut Wold. Neither carries a product, brand, supplier or emission class, so neither reaches Specified. Nothing is published about mattress composition, linen fibre content, adhesives, sealants, or cleaning and laundry chemistry. Sound and Sensory Ecology carries only the silent room listed at the bathhouse. The rooms are published as detached individual buildings rather than keys sharing a partition, which is why no separation specification exists to publish. What is absent is any measured background level, any mechanical or plant noise figure, and any fragrance policy. Published floor areas (210, 800, 80, 70, 30 and 8 square metres), room and bed counts, project cost and the architects' discussion of energy consumption in construction are excluded, because none of them measure anything these eight pathways cover. The MICHELIN Guide and e-architect refused automated fetching; the e-architect page was read in a browser instead, and the ArchDaily project page could not be read by either method.

Public data about the surrounding area. None of it contributes to the score, because a property cannot be marked down for the conditions outside it.
- Safely managed drinking water, Norway: The World Health Organization reports 99 per cent of the population nationally using a safely managed drinking water service. This describes the country, not this property, and says nothing about what reaches a guest room here. It is recorded because it is the background against which a property's own treatment is worth publishing. Source
- Ambient PM2.5 and PM10 near Valldal, Møre og Romsdal, Norway: Modelled ambient air over this location averaged 1.6 micrograms per cubic metre of PM2.5 and 2.5 of PM10 across the 720 hours to 2026-08-17, peaking at 5.3 PM2.5. The World Health Organization annual guideline for PM2.5 is 5. This is the outdoor air over the area, modelled rather than measured on site, and it is not a reading of the air inside any room. Source
Not published is not unsafehow to read these scores, and what this index does not promise
A low score means a property has not published information. It does not mean the property is unsafe, unhealthy or poorly run.
These scores measure disclosure. These scores describe disclosure, not property quality. This index has no commercial relationship with the properties listed unless a badge on the listing says otherwise.
Conditions change, and we will not always know. Every record is a snapshot of what a property had published when we read it, and that date is on the page. Conditions change: a property can refit, change suppliers or replace a system at any time, and nothing requires it to tell us. We re-read records and ask properties directly for updates, but there will always be a gap between what is true today and what was published when we looked. Use this as a frame of reference for what to ask, not as a substitute for asking. Take your own questions to the property before you book, and tell us if you find something we have wrong.
We report what properties publish. We do not inspect, certify or vouch for any property on this index unless a listing says we assessed it on site, and we accept no responsibility for decisions made or outcomes experienced on the basis of what you read here.
