Beautiful home for our Iceland adventure. This place was awesome! Comfortable rooms and an incredible kitchen. We could not have asked for a better home base during our stay. Oh, and the Northern Lights really pop out here! The hot tub and sauna made for a wonderful end of the day treat.

This property far exceeded our expectations. The house is fully stocked with everything you could possibly need, which made our stay comfortable and easy. The views of the surrounding countryside are simply stunning.The rooms are clean and spacious and the living room is generous in size, the perfect place to relax, enjoy a glass of wine and take in the scenery. The sauna and hot tub felt like true luxuries, especially since we could see the northern lights while sitting in the hot water. It truly made our stay special.We would return in a heartbeat!

Awesome House

We stayed at this property for 3 nights, wish we could have stayed longer! Amazing views, kids loved the video games, sauna and hot tub were nice after a long day of sightseeing. Host was super responsive to check in questions and showed us around and had manuals for operating hot tub and sauna. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay in this area!

Great quiet and convenient

I highly recommend this place to stay if you are planning anything in the northwest areas of Iceland. It was clean well stocked and convenient too many destinations north west of Reykjavík. The hosts met us with the key and make sure that we were informed of all the amenities the property had to offer

We loved our stay here. In July the midnight sun has been beyond spectacular. The house has huge windows in the living room. It’s beautifully appointed with cutting edge appliances. The hosts were quick to respond to questions. A first-rate experience!
