In fact, each room is named after a personality and decorated accordingly. An excellent buffet breakfast is served in the morning. In summer, access is given to the kitchen, so you can cook like at home, to your heart's content.

Tommy and his team welcome you with open arms. Located in the heart of the Lofoten Islands in a setting between sea and mountains, built a few meters from the beach, we come here in summer and winter to admire the northern lights or enjoy the midnight sun. Lovers of the waves are in paradise here. The complex respects the environment. If you want to be less crowded, go in June or September. The road is long to get there, but as soon as you arrive, you quickly understand that it was not worth it. A real favorite!

In the unusual series... I would like the Arctic Hide Away! A real place of exception where ten cabins are articulated, half of which are dedicated to sleeping. For the rest, dining room, sauna, relaxation studio... Here, we come to cut ourselves off from the world and enjoy the view: extraordinary. The place was initially conceived by artists for artists, hence the name of the place, a place outside of any external solicitation (except nature!) ideal for the concentration and the creativity. We are seduced by the design, the luxury and the calm that reign there!

Lost in the wilderness, the Birk Husky is worth the detour. Seven rooms in the guest house, on the wooded grounds, three cabins overlooking the river for a more rustic stay, but also suspended tents for smaller budgets or nature lovers in search of adventure.
