Rorbu in Stamsund, near Leknes

Burekka is the row of fishermen's cabins along the water at Stamsund, and this is number 10 — one semi-detached unit in it, let as a whole to one party. Booking.com marks it with three tiles and scores it 9.1 from 25 reviews.

Four bedrooms are packed into 45 m²: one with a super-king double, one with two single beds, and two with a single each. Downstairs there is a kitchen with a dishwasher, oven, stovetop, kettle and kitchenware, a single bathroom holding a shower, hairdryer and washing machine, a dining table and a sofa. Linen and towels are put out, the entrance is the cabin's own, and the outlook takes in the sea, the mountains and the village.

One figure needs care. Booking.com sells the cabin for seven people while listing five beds and bedroom occupancies that add up to five, so anyone bringing a party of six or seven should ask the owner where the others sleep before paying.

Why stay here

Four separate bedrooms in a working fishing village, on the old cabin row at the water's edge, with a kitchen and a washing machine and a dog allowed to come along.

Who it’s for

A family or a group who want rooms of their own rather than an open-plan cabin, and who can live with one bathroom between them. Children of any age may stay, though those of four and over are charged as adults, and no cot or extra bed is offered.

  • In the Burekka cabin row on the Stamsund waterfront
  • Kitchen with a dishwasher; washing machine in the bathroom
  • Sea, mountain and village views

Things to consider

The capacity does not add up: seven guests are allowed while five beds are listed across the four bedrooms, so confirm the sleeping arrangement before booking a large party. One bathroom serves the whole cabin, and upper floors are reached by stairs only. Check-in does not open until 17:00 and check-out is at 10:00. Children of four and over are charged as adults, no cot or extra bed is offered, and stag and hen groups are refused.
