Cabin in Svolvær

Villaveien is a residential street in Svolvær, and the cabin stands in its own plot there — detached, on the ground floor throughout, about a kilometre from the centre of town in a straight line.

Inside are one bedroom with a double bed, a sofa bed in the living room, one bathroom with a shower, and a kitchen with a dishwasher, oven, stovetop, microwave, coffee machine and kettle. The balcony looks over the lake, the terrace over the sea, and the listing also records mountain, garden, landmark and town views. Air conditioning is fitted, along with a washing machine, tumble dryer and a laundry service.

Pets stay at no charge, and the hosts are specific about getting here: a taxi stops just outside, the Hurtigruten quay is 20 to 25 minutes away on foot, and the bus stop is out on the main road, about 15 minutes' walk off.

Why stay here

A cabin to yourself within walking distance of Svolvær, on one level, with parking outside, laundry indoors, a balcony over the water and no charge for a dog.

Who it’s for
