Tranøy Fyr

Spectacular scenery, lovely food and super friendly people. Ask for a tour up to the top off the lighthouse, you'll see for miles. Be sure to visit the gallery's in "town", and take a round trip at the seafront to experience the crystal clear water.

We stayed 3 nights, one in the attic (great views, low ceiling in the loo/shower), then two in one of the cottages (with kitchen and lounge). The decor in the rooms is dated, but very clean. You come for the location, and it is spectacular, reached across a long walkway over the rocks, perched on a mound beside Vestfjorden, with the Lofotens rearing up beyond. The crystal clear water is beautiful, and there are lovely colours in the seaweed and rocks. The breakfast buffet in the warm restaurant is good, and can be replaced with a packed sandwich if you are departing early. We had one dinner in the restaurant; whalemeat starter and stockfish main course both good. Car parking is free. The wifi was good (although patchy in the attic). We'd go again!
