Holiday home in Hattan, near Ballstad

Sundsveien runs west from Ballstad along the shore towards Sund, and this detached house stands on it at Vitting, above the water. Booking.com measures the unit at 112 m², with a terrace, sea and mountain views, and its own entrance.

How the beds are arranged is not settled by the listing. Booking.com's unit title calls it a three-bedroom house, its description says one separate bedroom, its bed list shows a single bedroom with one single bed, and the property has answered a guest by saying there are three bedrooms with one bed in each: a king-size, a queen-size and a double. That is four different answers to the same question, so anyone booking should ask outright before paying.

What is clear: a kitchen with an oven, a hob, a microwave, a fridge, a kettle and kitchenware, a washing machine, a dining table, a sofa and a seating area, cleaning products and an iron. The upper floors are reached by stairs only. Arrival is from 16:00 and you leave by 11:00, and the minimum age for checking in is 18.

Why stay here

A house of its own on the shore road west of Ballstad, 4.3 km from the village in a straight line, with a sea view and a terrace, and Leknes Airport given as 9 km away.

Who it’s for

  • Families

A family or a group who want a whole house on a quiet stretch of coast rather than a room in a village — once the sleeping arrangements are confirmed. Booking.com lists family rooms and welcomes children of any age, but no cot or extra bed can be added and children of 18 and over pay adult rates.

Highlights

  • 112 m² detached house with its own entrance
  • Terrace with sea and mountain views
  • Kitchen with an oven, hob, microwave and kettle, plus a washing machine
  • On the shore road at Vitting, 4.3 km from Ballstad in a straight line
  • Private parking and WiFi, neither of them charged for
  • Leknes Airport given as 9 km away

Things to consider

The listing contradicts itself on the most basic point. The unit is titled a three-bedroom house; the description says one bedroom; the structured bed list shows one bedroom with a single bed; and the property has told a guest there are three bedrooms with a king, a queen and a double. Get it in writing before you book. The name is the property's own and not a forecast: whether the midnight sun or the northern lights are visible depends on the season, the weather and, for the aurora, darkness and solar activity, and no property can promise either. Beyond that: nobody under 18 may check in, no cots or extra beds are offered, the upper floors are reached by stairs only, and pets, smoking and parties are all refused.

The accommodation

One detached house of 112 m². Booking.com's bed list records a single bedroom with one single bed and does not publish a maximum occupancy for it, while the unit is titled a three-bedroom house and the property has described three bedrooms holding a king-size, a queen-size and a double bed. The bedroom and guest counts are therefore left unstated here. A toilet and a bath or shower are listed, with towels, linen and a wardrobe, but no bathroom count is published.
