Description from owner

Description

This is an original fishermans hut/rorbu with the equipment that the fishermen have used for centuries. It is situated on a small island in the harbour of Stamsund. The cabin is very cosy with comfortable beds.

The guest can use the rorbu and the quay. There is also a porch where the guest can enjoy the early night sun. There is also a boat to rent.

If our guest need a good advice or other help we are always around. We live only 100 meters from the accomodation.

The mountains, the waters around Stamsund and off course the midnight sun are only minutes away.

There is a pub and restaurant in walking distance. A grocery is two minutes away.

We will recommend our guests to rent a car. There is a lot of low-budget companies in the area. We will help you!

Three minutes minutes walk to the coastal steamer/ferry (Hurtigruten). Bodø is four hours amazing boat trip away. Leknes airport (via Bodø) is 15 kilometers away.

This is in the middle of Lofoten and a perfect base for exploring the whole Lofoten!

Here is Lonely Planets verdict about the archipelago Lofoten:

The pure air in your lungs (except for the strong reek of fish in some of the small ports), daylight around the clock and summer's infinite shades of green and yellow: Lofoten comes as a tonic. You'll never forget your first approach by ferry, especially if you've sailed from Bodø. The islands spread their tall, craggy physique against the sky like some spiky sea dragon and you wonder how humans eked a living in such inhospitable surroundings.

The main islands, Austvågøy, Vestvågøy, Flakstadøy and Moskenesøy, are separated from the mainland by Vestfjorden. On each are sheltered bays, sheep pastures and picturesque villages. The vistas (the whole of the E10 from tip to toe of Lofoten is designated a National Tourist Route, a title bestowed only upon the most scenic roads) and the special quality of the Arctic light have long attracted artists, represented in galleries throughout the islands.

But Lofoten is still very much commercially alive. Each winter the meeting of the Gulf Stream and the icy Arctic Ocean draws spawning Arctic cod from the Barents Sea. For centuries, this in turn drew farmer-fishermen from the mainland's north coast. Although cod stocks have dwindled dramatically in recent years, fishing still vies with tourism as Lofoten's largest industry, as evidenced by the wooden drying racks that lattice nearly every village on the islands.
