Tucked behind the busy main road 1.5km away from the centre, Aparjods is a modern complex of barn-like structures with reed-and-shingle roofing. The rooms, however, aren’t as characterful and are ready for a new generation of furniture. Breakfast is included and served in the excellent on-site restaurant.
