Statles Rorbu- og Konferansesenter
A family-run rorbu centre with more than 70 cabins and apartments spread around Mortsund harbour, south of Leknes on Vestvågøy, with its own restaurant and meeting facilities.
Why stay here
Cabins stand around a working fishing cove where the family has traded since 1950 and still produces cod liver oil. It is a large site, but it is laid out as several small clusters rather than one block. Leknes Airport and the Hurtigruten stop at Stamsund are each about 20 minutes away.
Who it’s for
Families and groups who want kitchenette cabins with several bedrooms, and business groups using the conference facilities.
Highlights
- Third-generation family business at Mortsund harbour
- More than 70 units with up to three bedrooms
- Restaurant on site
- Open year-round
Things to consider
Buses are irregular, so the property recommends arriving by car. Pets are not accepted, Wi-Fi can be slow, and one-room stopover cabins have no kitchen and are offered in summer only.
The accommodation
Fishermen's cabins and apartments with up to three bedrooms and six single beds; most bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms and the living rooms have kitchenettes. One-room cabins without a kitchen are available for short stops. On longer stays, cabins are serviced at three-day intervals.
