Sharming Cabin in Sund

Sund is a small settlement on Flakstadøya, and this is a whole house in it: three bedrooms, a garden, a terrace and an outdoor fireplace. Dogs are welcome, cots can be requested, and check-out runs to 13:00, which is late enough to buy a morning.

Families and groups of up to seven who want a house rather than a cabin, and who will take futons and single beds as readily as the one double. Children of any age may stay, cots can be requested, and dogs are accepted.

Booking.com publishes the floor area as 9 m² for a three-bedroom house sold for seven people. That figure cannot be right, so ask the property how big it actually is. The listing names a shower and a hairdryer but no private bathroom, so confirm the bathroom arrangement too. Upper floors are reached by stairs alone. No extra beds are available, though cots can be requested. Check-in starts at 14:00 with no closing hour given, and check-out runs from 12:00 to 13:00. The 6.5 score comes from 19 reviews.
