About this property

Borgarbrekka - In the Land of your Dreams

The "Lón" area (Lón means lagoon) is nothing but vast, incredible landscape and nature, from the black sandy shore to incredibly colourful mountains, all within long distances. Exploring this area takes you on a roller coaster of feelings.
The location in the South East of Iceland, just 35 km east of town Hofn, is simply optimal for travellers on the Ring Road (Rd 1), offering all these Places of Interest close by and up to an easy day's reach from Lodge Borgarbrekka. Also, this location is ideal as a first stop when foreign visitors come by the ferry "Norröna" from Europe to the port of Seydisfjordur.
For 6 people you have a lot of space, and if all five bedrooms are set, the 3 double- or twin beds, and the two smaller double beds, Borgarbrekka can accommodate 10 people. Please notice, if booked for more than 6 guests a surcharge pr. person, will apply.
Are you heading North, West, South or South West? We also run the quality cottages "Hamragil" by the town Akureyri up North (Booking Number 3925011), "Tvera" at the south coast of the Westfjords (4084081), "Stekkar" south of the great sights Geysir and Gullfoss (2903253) and Brekka right at the bay Hvalfjörður just north of Reykjavik (9257064).

Amazingly beautiful place
This was our first visit to Iceland and we were travelling with another family so a total of 8 people with teenage kids. Jon, our host was very responsive. Since we arrived at the property very late at night around 11pm, it was a little confusing to find the place. But Jon gave us really good instructions that helped a lot. Also the place was exactly as pictured. We had a wonderful stay at the property. Check in and check out was a breeze. We would definitely use this place whenever we visit Iceland again.

Secluded lovely house
The house was very nice, clean and cozy. The property is beautiful with sheep and open views. It’s a bit far from the nearest town so you have to come prepared. My only issue was with the lack of some basic kitchen equipment.

Lovely place!
Borgarbrekka Lodge is a wonderful place to stay, perfect for venturing towards the East fjords, but equally not far from Hofn and even Diamond Beach. The property is spacious and very comfortable, and the owner extremely helpful. Highly recommended!

Host profile image
Hooked on tourism, yet I studied automotive engineering at the University for Applied Sciences in Munich, Germany with the graduation Dipl.-Ing. (FH) Fahrzeugtechnik. After being technical director at the car inspection and type approval branch (MOT/TÜV) in Iceland for a few years I got more and more linked to the tourism, using my good knowledge in German, English and Swedish.
Tourist guide since 1983 and owner and operator of the tour agency Isafold Travel and the unique 4x4 rental Isak for 18 years.
Sold the whole business in 2015 to start up a new enterprise, Nordic Lodges. This company runs a few vacation rentals in various parts of Iceland, offering the concept "Roof 'n Route", which makes our lodges to "step stones" on your travel in Iceland.
Tourism and music are my hobbies, and that's where I'm now!

Why they chose this property

Unique location.
Being "next door to nature" the wonderful, two store roomy house of Borgarbrekka, offering 5 bedrooms, located midst in the Lón area, gives you the uncountable opportunities to explore, to eyewitness, to enjoy all what this area has to offer.

What makes this property unique

Reaching the ice lagoons of the great glacier Vatnajökull (NP) to the west, and the majestic mountains of the Eastfjords to the east -and feeling overwhelmed by natural sights all around- this makes the deal.
