Largest bathroom out of 7 accommodations we booked in Iceland! We were so impressed by the home decor and how Cosy it was. A nice touch of icelandic tradition everywhere you look. Breakfast was basic but just enough. Staff was very accommodating. Location was perfect for us to drive to jokulsarlon during the night to go watch the aurora. I really recommend this place. Parking just outside (for free) even the towels were embroider with their emblem (I’m a sucker for the little details) the common area is so beautiful too!

Really amazing location and the rooms are great! (we had a cottage) lots of hikes around - we decided to do an off the course hike to a waterfall close by. The hosts were very understanding especially as we travelled with kids - even kept the breakfast open late for us. The breakfast was great as well, given most places offered the bare minimum

Neat, clean, well maintained. Easy check-in. Would’ve been a great place to view the northern lights if not for bad weather. Zero draft and well insulated. The place is neat and clean. Absolutely loved staying here.

An authentic Icelandic experience. I saw the Aurora Borealis in front of the house. The host is a very kind lady. You must also see the attic of the house where you can drink your morning coffee. A welcoming house with a very good vibe.

It is a cozy beautiful stay. The best part of the stay is very helpful host. Some might find the place a bit small but the facility is very new.

The property was clean, comfortable and well situated. If it wasn’t cloudy it would be perfect for viewing northern lights as it is well away from artificial lights. I also liked that breakfast was included! The staff were very friendly.

    The position of is amazing with a stunning view over southern cost. The view of raising mist at sunset was one of my favourite moments during the whole trip to Iceland Convenient because of its location is close Breakfast and even more dinner were very good with locally sourced food. (Try sheep carpaccio) The room itself is very ample with comfy beds. Reception open longer than usual icelandic structure

    We love the place. It is in the middle of no where. This farm stay is surrounded by nature. There is a track that we can walk up the hill and along the creek. There is one hotel staff (a lovely dog) always wanting to walk with us. Breakfast is superb.

    The staff. The bar/restaurant staff really bring something special to the place. Also the beer was cheaper than the average in Iceland hostels.
