We loved the cabin! The hot tub was perfect after a long day of sight seeing. The detailed hand book was great to have as well as the phone to get in and out of the gate. Having amenities such as a blow dryer was helpful to not have to pack it with us and save luggage space. The location was perfect for seclusion while still being close enough to Selfoss for easy access to groceries, gas and restaurants.

First stop in Iceland

This was the first property we stayed at on our trip to Iceland, we used this as a home base to explore the souther region. The views were amazing, the hot tub worked just as instructed and it was the most home feeling I’ve ever had while traveling. Would highly recommended this property for someone looking to stay close to the golden circle sites.
