The Villa:
The property has 4 bedrooms and accommodates up to 8 people. 3 Bedrooms in the main house in addition to an upper level and a guesthouse. Very large patio with hot tub and amazing scenery.
Three bedrooms in the main house:
- Master suite with bathroom and large wardrope and a double bed.
- Second bedroom with double bed and a wardrope.
- Third bedroom, children's room with large bunk bed and toys.
- Upper level in main house: Cozy living room with TV and extra sleeping mats if needed.
The guest house is separated from the main building and has a double bed and a television.
The house is very well equipped. It has a spacious living room and a very good and fully furnished kitchen with a fridge, dishwasher, gas stove and everything needed to make delicious Icelandic meals. Two bathrooms, one with a shower and doorway to the patio.
WiFi.
There is a storage/washroom with a washer which is ideal for longer stays.
On the patio is a large barbecue and as mentioned before a nice hot tub where travelers can enjoy the midnight sun (during summer) or northern lights (during winter) and rest weary bones after sightseeing during the day.
Due to large size and various bedrooms, the villa is able to accommodate different combinations of groups.
The luxury villa is perfectly located to serve as a base for day tours around the southern and western part of Iceland. It is located within the Golden Circle so sights such as Thingvellir, the Icelandic national park, Gullfoss waterfall, Geysir geothermal area and Kerið crater are all within an hour drive from the house.
Less than 20 minutes drive from the house is Route 1, better known as the Iceland Ringroad. From there you could venture further south along the southern shore to see sights such as Reynisdrangar, Reynisfjara or visit Vík village. Further south you'll find Skaftafell and the famous Jokulsarlon (Vatnajokull glacier lagoon) as well as many other magnificent landmarks.
Iceland's capital Reykjavik is under an hour drive (appr. 45minutes) from the villa so there is no reason not to take a trip there to enjoy a variety of restaurants, bars, cafe's, museums or just to take in the sights. I also recommend restaurants in Selfoss (10minutes drive) such as Kaffi Krús and Tryggvaskáli.
The western part of Iceland is also well within reach of this house. Iceland's highest waterfall Glymur is approximately 1 1/2 hours drive from the house. Snaefellsnes peninsula is 2 1/2 drive. There you can see Snafellsjokull glacier as it towers over the top of the peninsula. In addition you can visit Djupalon and Hellnar as well as other interesting places.
The luxury villa is the perfect option for people who want to enjoy and make the most of their trip to Iceland combining luxury and comfortable stay with adventurous experiences around the Icelandic country side.
