Pretty house with beautiful view over the sea and the mountains nearby Lofoten Islands
Our house is located in a quiet area 1 km outside "The Blue City" Sortland and 100 m close to fields with many hiking opportunities. We have a large garden with 2 greenhouses, lots of vegetables, flowers and a cute cat.
The house has a wonderful vintergarden which is connected to the kitchen. Here you can sit and enjoy the view over the sea and the mountains in Vesterålen and Lofoten.
We have a sauna with a chill section, a trampoline, a wooden hut for children and 4 bicycles that can be used.
We want to exchange with nice people who love cats and can take care of both our sweet cat Lulu and our garden.

There is a lot of nature around our house and a very short distance to the hiking trail. The house is located on the edge of Sortland (in Vesterålen) with a walking distance (15 minutes) to the town. Hurtigruten docks at Sortland and is a great opportunity to take a trip north or south.
Vesterålen has an incredible amount of beautiful nature to offer with many fine beaches, hiking trails, mountain peaks.
Lofoten lies south of Vesterålen and can be visited by car, bus and Hurtigruten.
