Apartment in Laukvika, near Svolvær

Farmer Apartment is a self-contained ground-floor unit at Nerdalen, in the village of Laukvika. It has its own entrance and 64 m² of space: a living room, one bedroom, a shower room and a kitchen with oven, dishwasher and microwave.

The sleeping arrangement is unusual. The bedroom holds a bunk bed that Booking.com rates for three people, and a sofa bed in the living room takes two more, so five can stay if some share.

Outdoors there is a garden, a barbecue, a patio and a balcony with seating. The views run in several directions at once, taking in the sea, a lake, a river and the mountains, and there is a fireplace in the living area for colder evenings.

Why stay here

It is a rural base with a garden, barbecue and fireplace, and water in view on more than one side, at a village about 18 km from Svolvær in a straight line. With 72 reviews averaging 8.7 on Booking.com, the rating rests on a fair number of stays.

Who it’s for

A small family or group of up to five who do not mind a bunk bed and a sofa bed, and would rather be in a village than in town. It suits self-caterers, with a kitchen, washing machine and tumble dryer on hand.

  • Sea, lake and river views from the balcony and terrace
