The holiday home is very spacious and comfortably furnished. It is the ideal starting point for any excursion into the wild landscapes of the Icelandic Westfjords. The house was very clean, and communicating with Judi was a pleasure.

The house is very large and easy to find. The couch and chairs are comfotable. The house was clean, the beds were fine.The contact with the host was accurate and on time. Due to cloudy and drizzle the environment wasn't very challinging for us. But with clear weather this would have been much better. I did like the one lane two direction tunnel just before Isafjördur.

Our short vacation was fabulous. The house was super clean and we had a lot of space for three persons. The house had everything we could have asked for! The location of the house was perfect to get to Isafjordur and other points of interest in the area. We were able to see a lot of whales and a glimpse of northern lights!

A wonderful home base for exploring the Weatfjords

This is a lovely home—comfortable and spotlessly clean—in a beautiful location. It is in the perfect location for exploring the Westfjords. You can enjoy exploring the immediate vicinity or visit the bird cliffs of Látrabjarg for a day trip. Rikki and Judi are helpful and responsive hosts. We would definitely stay there again.

Our first time in the West Fjords!

Just outside of Isafjordur, this spacious well equipped house met all our needs and then some. Three full bedrooms, a bath and 1/2, and spacious living room with a beautiful view. The kitchen had everything we needed. The game room had plenty of entertainment for our 3 year old. The location was great for seeing all we wanted of the area. You will love this place!

We had an absolutely great time in Judiths House. It is spatious and has everything to feel like home, with love to every detail. We loved it there and love to visit Hnifsdalur again. In two nights we had a spectacular Northern lights show just behind the house!
