Elfis Sjøstuer - An idyllic stay in rorbu cabins

Elfis Sjøstuer is beautifully situated by a small cove on the northern part of the island of Herøy. This is the place to come for a tranquil holiday in scenic surroundings. Guests enjoy a fine view that spans from the Seven Sisters mountains to the south and the peak called Dønnamannen to the north. Activities available include kayaking, fishing, hiking, cycling and island hopping.

Elfis Sjøstuer is located in a quiet waterfront cove on the northern part of Herøy, along the Helgeland coast. Here, you can relax in peaceful surroundings with the Seven Sisters mountains to the south and views of Dønnamannen to the north—or head out for island hopping, hiking, cycling, kayaking, fishing, and more if you’re feeling active.

The local area offers a wide range of experiences. Just 5 km away is Herøy town centre, with a grocery store and places to eat, including Herøy Brygge and Ruen Thai. 7 km away you’ll find Etcetera – a delightful mix of flower shop and interior design store. On Øksningan, you can explore open coastal terrain and hiking trails, while Seløy, 10 km away, is home to great dining spots like Augustbryggo and Skolo. The area is ideal for cycling, and bikes can be rented nearby.

Accommodation

There’s a range of options for couples, families, and groups of friends—from spacious cabins to simpler stays close to nature.

The largest unit, Skarven (The Cormorant), has three double bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, and sits right by the sea with great views.

Oteren (The Otter) is nearby, with one double room and a loft sleeping area.

A little further up the hill is Ragnhildstua, with two bedrooms and a sofa bed. There’s also a small annex here that can be rented for extra sleeping space.

Kaistua is located directly by the waterfront, with its own floating dock and access to kitchen and bathroom facilities in the shared building Skråplanet.

The old boathouse houses two simpler apartments—each with three beds and a kitchenette.

For those who prefer a more basic stay, there are two small pods with a double bed and seating area. These units also share facilities in the communal building.

At the bottom of the boathouse, Skråplanet offers a shared kitchen and dining area, both indoors and outdoors—a cosy meeting spot for guests. The hosts have added a personal touch here with their own paintings.

Behind the boathouse, there’s a small wooded area with a grill spot. Down by the quay, there are seating areas and a place for cleaning fish.
