These are the cabins and lodges this guide lists for Nusfjord, in and around the village and elsewhere on Flakstadøya. Check the address on each listing before booking. Nusfjord lies 6.2 km off the E10 on the Fv7596, and the first road to it was not built until the 1960s.

The village they are in

Nusfjord is one of the oldest fishing villages in Lofoten and most of its houses date from the 1800s. Store norske leksikon lists 28 preserved rorbuer alongside working buildings — a fish plant, a cod liver oil works, boathouses and a shop — and says the village documents the development of the Lofoten fishery almost in full. It was one of Norway's pilot projects in European Architectural Heritage Year 1975, its buildings are protected, and it is still an active fishing village.

What this page lists

Those preserved rorbuer are let by the village resort. The cabins and lodges here are a separate set. Each listing shows the facilities a source records and, where one exists, a Booking.com guest rating with the date it was checked.

Who it suits

Travellers who want to sleep in a historic village and are content to eat at the resort's restaurant, tavern or café, or to drive back to the E10 for a supermarket. Visit Lofoten describes the village's facilities as the resort's. Ramberg and Leknes are the nearest places with shops. Check dates on Booking.com.
