Apartment in Henningsvær

This is an upstairs let inside Henningsvær itself, about 500 m from the middle of the village in a straight line. Two units are sold: a three-bedroom apartment of 70 m² with four beds, and a smaller apartment of 57 m² with three.

Bedrooms across the two run to large doubles, a twin, and a living room with two sofa beds. The owners have said that one of the bedrooms is a loft holding two singles — worth knowing if you are allocating rooms in advance. Each unit has its own bathroom and a kitchen with a dishwasher, an oven, a microwave, a kettle and a coffee machine, plus a seating and dining area with a flat-screen TV. Some units add a balcony or a terrace.

The apartments are reached by stairs and the owners have confirmed there is no lift. Sea and mountain views are recorded, WiFi and private parking are free, and the building is non-smoking. Guests rate it 9.1 out of 10 from 48 reviews.

Why stay here

A kitchen, a washing machine and a sea view inside Henningsvær itself, with parking — rather than a room out on the E10 with the village a drive away.

Who it’s for

Families and small groups who can manage a flight of stairs and want to walk to the harbour, the galleries and the cafés. Anyone with heavy bags or limited mobility should look elsewhere, as there is no lift.
