A really decent guesthouse. The staff were lovely and very helpful. Having access to two fully kitted out kitchens was great as we were able to prep our own foods. The bathrooms were a little ‘sheddy’ but who cares - they were clean and warm. The...

The guesthouse is in a quiet valley out of road no.1, but not too far from it. It is small but well equipped, there are two kitchens with tea and coffee. There are two toilets, but only one shower, but for the guesthouse, it is enough. The room is...

I really loved he location of the guesthouse. The road there is a bit adventurous for someone who isn't used to unpaved Icelandic roads and I can imagine getting there when the road is covered in snow or ice can be a bit tricky, but we didn't have...

Company information

We are 3 siblings who run the guesthouse today. We are raised in the valley and have deep roots there. We know the valley well and are pleased to inform people about it.

Property information

Our guesthouse is located on an farm in the east fjords. The house was built around 1925 and was partly restored in 1987 and was then converted in to a guesthouse. Room nr 5 has always been the main bedroom, room nr 6 used to be two small rooms for children and room nr 4 was the living room on the farm. This house has always been in the same family but in the late '70 a new house was built for the family little bit further in the valley. We are pleased to welcome guests to our guesthouse.

Neighbourhood information

The landscape is quite extraordinary. Rocks are abundant and hikes can be quite demanding if one wished them to be so. The river Fossá, which runs through the valley, has some twenty-five waterfalls each with its particular fascination thoroughly worth a stay and a closer inspection. A four-wheel track running close to the river and the waterfalls leads further into the valley. You are most welcome to visit us at Eyjólfstaðir wether it is to stay or just to enjoy what the nature has to offer.
