Tyskhella Rorbuferie is situated in the centre of Kabelvåg, overlooking the Vestfjord and Kabelvåg,
the oldest town in the Lofoten Islands.

Tyskhella is an old building dating back to about 1905, and built by Johan Tysk. Originally, and up until 1993, the building was used as a fisherman’s cabin and tackle shed. It was built adjacent to Idar C Pedersen’s fish landing station which was unfortunately lost in one of three major fires in Kabelvåg in the 1990’s.

In 1996 the site was taken over by new owners and restored, upgraded and converted into a commercial overnight accommodation business in compliance with today’s demands on facilities and standard.

Tyskhella has an excellent agreement with Kabelvåg Hotel with regard to the serving of food and drink to our guests. The hotel is only 30 metres from Tyskhella.

The resort includes 12 rorbu cabin style apartments in three different sizes. Each is of excellent standard and adapted to suit wheelchair users. All of our rorbu cabin apartments have separate entrances, kitchens and bathrooms.
