Moderne Leilighet i Lofoten

A step-free apartment a kilometre from Leknes Airport and just over a kilometre from the town hall, with laundry, air conditioning and a barbecue — useful on a first or last night in Lofoten.

Two couples, or a couple with a dog, who want a flat rather than a hotel room near the airport. Step-free access makes it easier for anyone with luggage or limited mobility. The three-hour check-in window makes it awkward for a late flight, so plan arrival around it.

Check-in is only between 15:00 and 18:00 and the owners need your arrival time beforehand; departure runs from 08:00 to 11:00. There is no extra bed. An electric car cannot be charged at the apartment; the owners have said the nearest charging points are about a kilometre away. Parties are not allowed and smoking is not permitted.

One Two-Bedroom Apartment of 69 m² with two beds, a double in each bedroom, and one bathroom with a bath or shower. Booking.com publishes a maximum of four guests. The whole unit is on the ground floor and has a private entrance.

Haldsvågsvingen 14a sits under the 8370 Leknes postcode in Vestvågøy municipality.

The owners have said a taxi can be booked ahead through the Taxifix app or by calling Vestvågøy Taxi, which is worth knowing for an early flight.
