Apartment in Henningsvær

Banhammaren sits at the outer edge of Henningsvær, 425 m from Kartverket's registered point for the village. The apartment is one of two let in the same building at number 39; this is the larger of the pair at 49 m².

The layout is one bedroom holding an extra-large double, a sofa bed in the living room, one bathroom and a fitted kitchen. Booking.com sells it for four, so the second pair sleeps in the living room rather than behind a door.

The kitchen holds an oven, a hob, a dishwasher, a coffee machine, a kettle and a fridge, with a washing machine in the flat and a dining table to eat at. The listing records sea and mountain views and a private entrance, and the description notes a lift in the building — worth knowing if you are carrying luggage or skis. Parking is free and on site and WiFi is free.

Why stay here

A compact flat with a proper kitchen and a washing machine at the quiet end of Henningsvær, in a building with a lift rather than the steep stair that comes with most village lets. Free parking with it, in a village where that is scarce.

Who it’s for

Two people in comfort, four if the second pair will take the sofa bed. Children of any age are accepted and, unusually, are charged as adults only from 18 — but there is no cot and no extra bed. A credit card is needed for the deposit.
