Halfway
A small campground on Våganveien outside Kabelvåg letting three caravans and a 70 m² apartment, each with its own bathroom and bed linen. Free parking, a barbecue and picnic area, and a paid airport shuttle.
Halfway is a campground rather than a house or a hotel, and what it lets are four fixed units: three caravans of 13 to 15 m², sleeping two or three apiece, and a 70 m² apartment sleeping four. Booking.com classes it under campsites. Every unit has its own bathroom, bed linen and a seating area; the apartment and some of the caravans have a full kitchen with an oven, microwave and toaster, while the others have a kitchenette with a kettle and hob.
It sits on Våganveien about 3.8 km from Kabelvåg by the guide's straight-line measurement, with mountain and garden outlooks, a patio, a barbecue and a picnic area. Free private parking comes with it, car hire can be arranged on site and there is an airport shuttle, which is charged for.
Arrival runs from 15:30 to 21:30, though the property has told one guest arriving later that it was not a problem. Check-out is generous, from 06:00 to 12:00. Quiet hours run from 22:00 to 08:00. Guests score it 7.9 from 168 reviews, the lowest of the properties in this group, which is worth weighing against the price a caravan usually carries.
Why stay here
A private bathroom and a bed with linen for the price bracket a campsite sits in, on the road between Svolvær and the rest of Lofoten, with parking, a barbecue and car hire on site. The 70 m² apartment is a proper flat for four.

Things to consider
Three of the four units are caravans of 13 to 15 m², so space is tight and the kitchen varies — a full one in some units, a kitchenette in others. Neither a cot nor an extra bed is available. Arrival is between 15:30 and 21:30 as published, and the property asks to be told your time in advance, although it has agreed to later arrivals when asked. Quiet hours run from 22:00 to 08:00, pets are taken only on request, and the airport shuttle is charged. The guest score is 7.9.
