This cosy former lighthouse keeper’s cabin sits at the gateway to the Arctic Ocean, surrounded by open maritime scenery and wide, uninterrupted views of mountains and deep-blue water. The cabin has a retro feel and a peaceful setting that makes the landscape the main attraction.
From the garden bench or the house itself, you can watch the special light of the midnight sun and, in season, the Northern Lights. Wildlife is part of the experience too, with chances to spot minke whales, seals, otters and migrating birds across the spacious grounds.
A long beach lies directly below the cabin, giving you an easy place for quiet walks and time by the sea. The cabin is also well suited to fishing, and in autumn you can go berry and mushroom picking nearby. In winter, snowshoes are available for exploring the snow-covered surroundings, while snowmobiles are not permitted for guests.
Tromsø is within a relatively short drive, so shops, restaurants and sights such as the Arctic Cathedral and Polaria are within reach when you want a change of pace. In winter, Santa’s Reindeer Cabin is also nearby for a close look at reindeer.
