Perfect location near Leknes in the center of the Lofoten. The cabin was like new and well equipped with a great view. Bonus was the sauna. A great place to stay.

We were two couples, and the cabin was a perfect size for us. The kitchen was well equipped and the washing machine was useful since we were on a week-long roadtrip. We were able to use the sauna a couple times (300kr for 1-hr). The sauna had a beautiful view and had stairs right next to it so we could go for an Arctic dip in the water and then warm back up inside.
The location was very conveniently located in the middle of the Lofoten island chain, just about a 10-minute drive outside of Leknes.

We just finished a three night stay at Lofoten Base Camp. I cannot speak more highly of this place. It was clean, comfortable and a superb location for our photography trip. All the major photographic sights were within a half hour’s drive except south Lofoten which was about an hour away. They are in the process of building an onsite restaurant which will certainly add another convenient aspect to this property. The owner is charming and very friendly. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the Lofoten islands no matter for what purpose.
