Eggum Rorbuer

A cabin on the beach at Eggum for the price of a room, entirely step-free, with the coastal path north towards Unstad starting within walking distance and the Atlantic in front of the terrace.

A family or two couples: a double in one room, bunks in the other, and a kitchenette that will cook a proper meal. Level throughout, which helps anyone who struggles with stairs, and the garden and patio give children somewhere to be.

Forty square metres is small for the six guests Booking.com's occupancy allows, and the beds come to three — a double and two bunks — so agree the sleeping plan first. No cot and no extra bed can be added, and children of four and over pay the adult rate. Pets are refused, quiet hours run from 23:00 to 09:00, and arrival does not begin until 17:00. Eggum has no shop, and the letting is handled through an agency rather than the owner.

One unit, listed as a Holiday Home of 40 m² with three beds and an occupancy of six. One bedroom holds a double bed, the other two bunk beds. There is a living room, a kitchenette and one bathroom with a shower. The cabin is semi-detached, wholly on the ground floor, with its own entrance.

Booking.com records the entire unit as being on the ground floor, with a private entrance.

A private entrance, a private bathroom with a shower, free toiletries, towels and linen. The kitchenette holds an oven, a hob, a microwave, a fridge, a coffee machine, kitchenware and a dining table, with a washing machine and cleaning products. A flat-screen TV and a sofa are listed indoors; a patio and terrace outside, with sea, garden and mountain views. Parking on site and WiFi are free and the cabin is non-smoking.

Self-catering from the kitchenette, which has an oven, a hob and a microwave. No breakfast, restaurant or bar is offered and Eggum has no shop; Bøstad and Leknes are the places to stock up, at 23 km by the listing's airport figure.
