Wellness cabin

Spa facilities and a sauna in a cabin you rent whole, on a headland with the water on both sides, and dogs allowed at no charge — an uncommon combination within a short drive of Svolvær.

A group that wants the sauna and the fireplace more than a village on the doorstep, and does not mind two of its number sleeping in the living room. Dog owners are welcome. Children of any age are accepted and a cot may be available depending on the option booked, but no extra bed is.

Booking.com's occupancy figure for this cabin is fifteen, which its own bed list — five beds across three bedrooms and a living room — does not support, so agree the party size with the property in writing before you book. The facility list carries both a shared bathroom and a private one while the description counts four bathrooms; that wants checking too. Arrival is a four-hour window, 16:00 to 20:00, with your time sent ahead, and check-out is 11:00. Cards only, no cash. No extra beds are available. The name mentions a beach, but nothing in the listing itself describes one.

One cabin of 100 m² let whole, sold under the name Four-Bedroom Holiday Home. Booking.com's room detail records three bedrooms, each with an extra-large double, and two single beds in the living room — five beds. The description counts four bathrooms with a shower; the facility list records both a shared bathroom and a private one. Towels and linen are provided. The occupancy figure on the listing, fifteen, does not match the bed list, so no maximum is stored here.

Spa facilities and a sauna, a fireplace, air conditioning and heating, an iron and ironing facilities. The kitchen holds an oven, a dishwasher, a coffee machine, a kettle, a fridge and kitchenware, with a washing machine for laundry. A terrace looks out over the sea, the garden and the mountains. Parking is free and private, WiFi is free, and the cabin is non-smoking. Payment is by card only.

Self-catering, with a kitchen holding an oven, a dishwasher, a coffee machine, a kettle and a fridge. No breakfast or restaurant comes with the cabin, and Vestpollen has no shops; buy food in Svolvær on the way.

Sildpollneset 116 at Vestpollen, in Vågan municipality, on a headland about 12 km north-east of Svolvær in a straight line. Booking.com files the locality under its own Vestpollen district and records a rural setting with sea, garden and mountain views.

Booking.com gives Svolværgeita as 16 km away, Lofoten as 17 km, Svolvær Torg and Nordnorsk Kunstnersenter each as 17 km, and Svolvær Airport as 12 km. Free private parking comes with the cabin, and a car is needed.
