These cabins and lodges are grouped with Henningsvær because it is the nearest of this guide's destinations in a straight line, so a cabin listed here is not necessarily in the village. Henningsvær itself is built on the small islands of Heimøya and Hellandsøya and is reached on the Fv816 from the E10.

What they include

Each listing shows the locality, layout and facilities a source records, and a Booking.com guest rating with the date it was checked where one exists.

Getting to the village

Henningsvær is 26 km from Svolvær and 31 km from Svolvær Airport, and the road link to Austvågøya opened in 1983. A routing model puts Svolvær to Henningsvær at about 23 km and Henningsvær to Leknes at about 61 km. Visit Lofoten describes the road in from the E10 as narrow and busy in summer, says the village streets make parking difficult, and advises leaving the car at one of the larger car parks and walking, or arriving by bus; a local bus links the village with Kabelvåg and Svolvær.

Who it suits

Drivers who want space, parking and a quieter road, and are content to drive in for the galleries and restaurants. To stay in the village itself, look at the rorbuer and hotels on Henningsvær. Check dates on Booking.com.
