Banpim Aurora Dome and Jacuzzi

A heated dome with a hot tub, its own bathroom and a garden, six kilometres from Leknes Airport and within easy reach of Ballstad. A charging point for electric cars is on site, still uncommon at a small Lofoten let, and airport pick-up and drop-off can be arranged.

Couples and small families after a night or two in a dome rather than a week of self-catering. Booking.com marks it as having family rooms and a cot for an under-three is free on request.

There is no kitchen — a fridge, kettle, coffee maker and kitchenware are listed, but nothing to cook on — so meals have to come from outside. No guest reviews have been posted yet, so there is no rating to weigh. Quiet is asked for from 21:00 to 06:00, earlier than most places ask. Pets are refused, smoking is not allowed, and no extra bed can be added. The name refers to the aurora; the listing itself says nothing about aurora viewing, and no one can promise the lights will appear.

One dome tent of 25 m², sold as a Tent for four, with two beds. No bedroom breakdown is published. The dome has a private bathroom with a shower and a bidet, air conditioning, heating, a flat-screen TV, a seating area and a dining area, and towels and linen are laid on.

Free WiFi, free on-site parking, and a charging point for electric cars, with an airport shuttle offering pick-up and drop-off. Indoors: air conditioning, heating, a flat-screen TV, a fridge, a kettle, a tea and coffee maker, kitchenware, a dining table, free toiletries, slippers and a hairdryer. Outdoors: a hot tub, a garden, a terrace, outdoor furniture and an outdoor dining area.

There is no cooker, oven or hob on the facilities list, so this is not a self-catering stay. A fridge, kettle, coffee maker, kitchenware and a dining table are provided, indoors and out. Lofotenmat Sa is given as 3.7 km away, and Leknes has the island's main shops.

Nyheim 27 is in Gravdal, in Vestvågøy municipality, 465 m from the settlement name Kartverket registers as Brekka and 4.2 km from the point this guide uses for Ballstad. Booking.com records the setting as rural, with a garden and mountain views.

The listing gives Lofotenmat Sa as 3.7 km away, Vestvågøy Rådhus as 6.1 km, Leknes Airport as 6 km, Nusfjord as 28 km and Borga Radarstasjon as 31 km. There is free on-site parking, an EV charging point and an airport shuttle with pick-up and drop-off.
