Lauklines Kystferie

With six cabins hosting up to six people each, Lauklines Kystferie in Kattfjord – approximately 30 kilometres from Tromsø airport – can accommodate up to 36 guests at a time, and upwards of 90 per cent of the visitors are regulars who return every year. The current owners, Andreas and Hanna Nilsen, took over the small family-run business in 2000. It had then been left empty for a number of years, picking up where Andreas’ grandfather, who started the business in 1930, left off. “Andreas’ grandfather originally had a fish landing here, so we’ve preserved some of the old houses that we now use as reception and museum,” explains Hanna.
