Holiday home in Laupstad, Hadsel municipality. Nearest in this guide: Svolvær

Higravfjordveien runs along the inner arm of the fjord at Laupstad, and this small detached house stands on it, some way north of Svolvær and inside Hadsel municipality rather than Vågan.

Sixty-two square metres take in two bedrooms — a double in one, two singles in the other — a living room with a sofa bed, and one bathroom fitted with a bath as well as a shower, which is rare in a let this size. The per-room maximums add up to five. Linen and towels are provided and the house has its own entrance.

The kitchen runs to an oven, a hob, a microwave, a dishwasher, a toaster and a washing machine, with a dining table beside it, and the patio outside looks to the sea and the mountains. Parking and WiFi are free. Booking.com rates the house three tiles and gives Svolvaer Airport as 18 km away.

Why stay here

A whole detached house for four or five on a quiet fjord road, with a bath to come back to and free parking at the door, twenty minutes' drive or so from the airport by the listing's own distance.

Who it’s for

A family of four or a pair of couples with a car who want to be on the water and away from the villages, and will cook for themselves. No cots, no extra beds and no pets, so it suits a self-contained party.

  • Two bedrooms plus a sofa bed in the living room
  • Bathroom with a bath as well as a shower
