Fishermans View

Seven places in a quiet house on the north-east coast, with a fireplace, a picnic area and a view that takes in the sea, a lake and the mountains at once — for anyone happy to drive to Leknes rather than live in it.

A family or a fishing party of up to seven with at least one car. The two twin rooms suit children or friends sharing. No cot or extra bed can be added, and a child of four or more is charged at the adult rate.

This is a long way from the middle of Lofoten — 21 km from Leknes in a straight line and 23 km to the airport by Booking.com's figure — so a car is not optional. One bathroom serves up to seven people. Arrival is 17:00 to 23:30 with your time given beforehand and departure is by 10:00. The upper floor is reached by stairs only. No cot and no extra bed can be added, pets are not taken and parties are refused. The 7.6 score rests on 16 reviews.

One detached holiday home of 70 m² with its own entrance. Three bedrooms: a large double bed in the first, two single beds in each of the other two. Five beds are credited to the unit and Booking.com publishes a maximum of seven guests. One bathroom with a shower, a toilet, a hairdryer, free toiletries, towels and toilet paper. Linen is provided; floors are tile, marble, hardwood or parquet.

Booking.com records the upper floors as reachable by stairs only, and gives no wheelchair provision.

Heating and a fireplace, a living room with a seating area, a sofa, a desk, a dining area, wardrobes, a flat-screen TV and a radio. An iron and ironing board, a washing machine, a drying rack, a clothes rack, cleaning products and hand sanitiser are listed. Outside are a terrace with furniture, an outdoor dining area and a picnic area. WiFi and private parking on the site are free and the house is non-smoking.

Self-catering, and the nearest shops are a drive away. The kitchen holds an oven, a hob, a dishwasher, a fridge, an electric kettle, a toaster, a tea and coffee maker and kitchenware, with a dining table indoors and a dining area outside. No breakfast, restaurant or bar is listed at the property.

53 Sandveien at Alstad, on the north-east side of Vestvågøy in Vestvågøy municipality. Booking.com files the district as Alstad, which is the source for the locality here; Kartverket has no closer registered settlement name for the coordinates. Leknes lies 20.9 km off in a straight line and the setting is recorded as rural.

Booking.com gives Borga Radarstasjon as 19 km from the house, Leknes Airport as 23 km, Vestvågøy Rådhus as 24 km, Lofotenmat Sa as 27 km, Galleri Espolin as 44 km and Nusfjord as 48 km. Parking on the site is private and free.
