Lofoten Links Lodges

The lodges look north over the Norwegian Sea, which the operator says gives a view of the midnight sun from late May to mid-July. The luxury standard lodges have three bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, around a shared kitchen and living room with a fireplace, so a couple can book one room without renting a whole house. Hov beach, Låven restaurant and the Hov Gård Icelandic horse farm are a short walk away.

Room-and-golf packages are sold for golfers visiting Lofoten Links, and the deluxe standard lodges are described as suited to families and larger groups. One lodge accepts dogs.

If you book a single room you share the lodge's kitchen and living room with other guests. Hot tubs cost extra and need four to six hours to heat. Pets are allowed in one lodge only, which must be rented whole.

Luxury standard lodges 1–8 each have three bedrooms for two with attached bathrooms, a shared kitchen with dishwasher, washing machine, living room with fireplace and a patio. Deluxe standard lodges 10, 11, 12, 14 and 15 have three or four bedrooms, lofts in some, one or two shared bathrooms and a patio. Barstrand Lodge and an off-site private lodge are also offered.

Reception is at the golf clubhouse about 1 km away from 1 May to 21 October and at Låven restaurant at Hov, about 300 m away, in winter. Check-in from 16:00, check-out by 11:00. No smoking.

Lodges are self-catering. Låven restaurant at Hov Gård, a short walk away, serves breakfast, lunch and dinner.

At Hov on Gimsøy, facing north over the Norwegian Sea, about 1 km from the Lofoten Links clubhouse and about 33 km by road from Henningsvær (41 km from Svolvær).
