Maison de vacances au Vestvågøy

In magnificent and quiet surroundings in Western Lofoten, this charming holiday cottage is located 12 km west of Leknes. Panoramic view of steep mountains, idyllic sandy beaches and the mighty Nordic Sea that have shaped this landscape.

When the midnight sun shines during long spring and summer nights, you might end up sitting all night at the terrace enjoying this spectacular view. The house lies on a hill surrounded by easy hiking trails along the sea and in the mountains. From the top, you have the best lookout points towards Æsholman, a group of islands that was abandoned after a dramatic storm. The beautiful beach Haukelandsstranden lies right by the house, and is the most popular beach on hot summer days.

The house owner can help out with car rental. This place is a great starting point for day excursions around Lofoten. 12 km to the town Leknes, where you will find shops and restaurants. Visit the small town Vikten and its Glasblower Centre. See the many fishing villages along the southern shores of Lofoten, surrounded by high and ragged mountains. Also visit Kabelvåg to the north, where you can have a close up experience with the aquarium fish. The old wharf, the gallery and film viewings of Lofoten in the old fishing village of Henningsvær, is worth visiting.

NB: It is required to rent bed linen when ordering this house, it is not allowed to bring your own.
