Margithuset

A whole house between Reine and Sakrisøy with a sea-facing terrace and nearly eighty reviews behind it, at a size that suits a family rather than a crowd.

A family or a group of four who want to cook for themselves near Reine and do not mind one bathroom or a staircase. Nobody under 18 can check in, and a cot is always available free for the youngest.

One bathroom serves the house — the owner has confirmed it on the listing — and the upper floor is reached by stairs only. The minimum age to check in is 18. Check-in runs from 16:00 to midnight with your arrival time given in advance, and check-out between 11:00 and 12:00. No breakfast is served: the owner's reply to a guest asking about it was that the kitchen is there to cook in. Booking.com's description mentions a shared lounge although the house goes to one party, so ask if that matters to you. Extra beds are not offered and pets are allowed only on request, possibly for a charge.

One detached house of 100 m², listed as a Holiday Home with four beds across three bedrooms: two single beds in the first, a double in the second and a single in the third, with a maximum of two guests per room. One private bathroom with a bath or shower, a hairdryer and towels, confirmed as the only one by the owner. Linen is provided and the upper floor is reached by stairs.

The upper floor is reached by stairs only.

Air conditioning, a private entrance, tiled and parquet floors, an iron and ironing facilities, a flat-screen television, a radio, board games, wardrobes and a dining area; a balcony, a patio, a terrace, outdoor furniture and an outdoor dining area outside, with sea, garden, mountain and landmark views. A washing machine, a tumble dryer, a drying rack and child safety socket covers are provided. Parking and WiFi are free, and the house is hypoallergenic and non-smoking.

Self-catering, and the owner has said as much on the listing when asked about breakfast: there is a kitchen and guests cook in it. It holds an oven, a hob, a toaster, a dishwasher, a fridge, a kettle, kitchenware and cleaning products, with a dining table, and there is an outdoor dining area.

Myran, in the Reine area of Moskenes municipality. Kartverket places the address about a kilometre from the centre of Reine, and Sakrisøy — the nearest destination this guide covers — is roughly 600 metres away in a straight line. The terrace looks to the sea with mountains behind.

Booking.com gives Nusfjord as 39 km from the house and Værøy Heliport Airport as 44 km. Free private parking comes with it.
