Four bedrooms, two bathrooms and enough space
The house is from the early 1950s. Back then, sheep in the basement were normal. The basement has since been dug out and everything renewed, but we kept everything that could still bear its weight. Solid, Nordic, lived-in. You can always sleep with the window open and the mountain air in the room — the sheep have moved out, the view stayed.
“Susanne has thought through every detail — the house was clean, inviting, and has the most spectacular view.”
“So many details thought of. You can tell Susanne puts real love into it.”
“We have never felt so comfortable in a holiday home.”
“Truly one of the best — if not the best — family holidays with friends we have ever had.”
Equipped for a week, not for a night
This explains how the house is equipped: a kitchen stocked like a home you cook in, not a cabin you camp in. A drying cabinet in the entrance hall that takes boots and shell jackets after a wet day, and beats any tumble dryer. A large freezer for the day the fishing goes well. A desk with screen and keyboard for the one who has to log on. Firewood, board games, books, and two of everything that matters, one per floor.
“We were mightily impressed by how well equipped the house is. The clothes-drying facilities were superb.”

Two bedrooms, a bathroom, a kitchen and a fireplace on each floor: the house divides naturally in the middle. Two families — or a group of friends — travel well here: apart when the doors close, together when you want to be, over good dinners at the dining table with room for eight and the fjord outside the window.
“Truly one of the best — if not the best — family holidays with friends we have ever had.”
“Susanne's house was tastefully decorated with everything we needed. It sits beautifully by the sea.”

The dining-room window
The main dining room has one large window. Dinner with a view, or simply a seat by the glass with a book, watching the weather move across the fjord.
The house, in short
How many people does the house sleep?
Eight, in five beds across four bedrooms: a double, two queens and a bunk bed. Two bedrooms and a bathroom on each floor.
Is the kitchen properly equipped?
There are two fully equipped kitchens, one on each floor, with a dishwasher, a coffee machine and enough pans for two cooks. There is deliberately no microwave — when you are in Lofoten, you have time.
How do we check in?
Self check-in with a code lock, from 16:00 on arrival day. Check-out is 11:00.
Can we work from the house?
There is a desk in the hall with an external monitor, keyboard and mouse — plug in your laptop and you are set. Wi-Fi reaches the grounds.
How is the house heated in winter?
Underfloor heating in the hall and the whole lower floor, panel heaters in every room, new windows, and a fireplace on each floor. Firewood is provided.
Can two families really stay without getting in each other's way?
That is how the house divides: two bedrooms, a bathroom, a kitchen and a fireplace on each floor, with two entrances. Apart when the doors close, together at the dining table.
What do we do with wet boots and jackets?
The drying cabinet in the entrance hall takes boots and shell jackets after a wet day — gentler than a tumble dryer on Gore-Tex — and there are boot dryers at both entrances.
How would you like the beds made up?
Send us a message about how you want the beds made up, and we will set it up exactly as you like. Linen and towels are included.
Can we charge an electric car?
Yes — a Type 2 charger by the door, free for guests, with free parking on the property.
We fish — is there freezer space?
A chest freezer in the laundry in addition to the kitchen freezer. If you are flying home with your catch, check the current export limits before you pack.
Are the stairs steep?
They are original to the 1950s house — part of its character, and worth knowing about if someone in your group is unsteady on stairs.
