Rorbu in Reine

Booking.com calls this a traditional rorbu, and it is let as one house rather than as rooms. The address is Moskenesveien 540 with an 8390 Moskenes postcode; Kartverket's registered point for Reine is about 590 m off, and the guide's Reine entry is 0.6 km away in a straight line.

Inside are 64 m² and four beds' worth of sleeping: an extra-large double in one bedroom, two singles in the other, and one bathroom shared between them. Three beds are counted on the listing and the maximum is four. Heating comes three ways — the owner has answered that there are electric heaters, a wood stove and a heated bathroom floor — which matters in a cabin on this stretch of coast in winter.

The kitchen runs to an oven, a hob, a fridge, a kettle, a coffee machine and kitchenware, with a washing machine and a dining table. A patio and a terrace look out at the sea, with mountains on the other side. WiFi and private parking are free, and the cabin is non-smoking.

Why stay here

A whole rorbu within walking reach of Reine, kept warm by a wood stove as well as electric heaters, with a kitchen, a washing machine and a terrace on the water side — and four beds, which is enough for a family without being a house you rattle around in.

Who it’s for

Four people at most: a family of four, or two couples happy with a double in one room and singles in the other. Pets are not taken, and no cot is available, so a party with a baby would need to bring its own arrangements.
