Holiday home in Stamsund, near Leknes

The house stands on Edvard Oddens vei in Stamsund — 98 m from the settlement point Kartverket registers, which puts it squarely in the village. Booking.com rates it three tiles and describes a log building with a garden and a terrace.

Ninety square metres hold three bedrooms — a large double, a pair of single beds and a double — with one bathroom and a shower between them. Booking.com sells the house for five. The kitchen runs to an oven and a hob, there is a washing machine, a flat-screen TV, plus a sofa and a dining area, and linen and towels are laid on.

One claim on the page does not fit the rest of it: the listing says a restaurant on the premises serves lunch, dinner and cocktails, with a local menu. No name, no opening hours and no other trace of it appear anywhere on the listing, so treat it as unconfirmed and ask before you count on eating in.

Why stay here

A log house inside Stamsund rather than on a road somewhere outside it, with three bedrooms, a terrace and a garden, and the ferry quay and harbour within the village. The listing gives Leknes Airport as 15 km away.

Who it’s for

A family of five or two couples with a child who want to be in a working fishing village. Late arrivals are well served — check-in runs to midnight — but early risers are not: check-out is 10:00.

Highlights

  • 90 m² log house, 98 m from the point Kartverket registers as Stamsund
  • Three bedrooms: a large double, twin singles and a double
  • Terrace and garden; washing machine and a flat-screen TV
  • Check-in runs as late as midnight
  • Free WiFi and free on-site parking

Things to consider

A restaurant on site is claimed by the listing with no name or hours attached, so confirm it before planning meals around it. There is one bathroom for five people. Check-in is from 17:00 until midnight with your arrival time given ahead, and check-out is by 10:00, an hour earlier than most. Pets are refused, parties are refused, no cot or extra bed can be added, and the house is non-smoking. Two guests have reviewed it, so the 8.0 score means little yet.

The accommodation

One log house of 90 m² let as a whole and sold as a Three-Bedroom House for five. The bedrooms hold a large double bed, two single beds and a double bed; one bathroom with a shower serves them. A dining area, a sofa, a flat-screen TV and a terrace fill out the house, and linen and towels are laid on.
