It is very relaxing to come our house after a long strong day and and relax go in to the hot tub and in the winter time if you are lucky you can see the Northern Lights dancing over the house and in the summer enjoy the brightness and nature.
In the winter it is nothing that beats lying in the hot tub watching the stars and if you are lucky you can see the Northern Lights.

Beautiful house located in a great location and excellent surroundings. It is so good to come to the house after long drive, walk, golfing , horseback riding
and so on go to the privet hot tub and relax

What makes this property unique

The atmosphere is very peaceful and you are in touch with nature and the surrounding landscape. From the living room you can see Mount Hekla and Eyjafjallajökull.

It is very relaxing to come our house after a long strong day and and relax go in to the hot tub and in the winter time if you are lucky you can see the Northern Lights dancing over the house and in the summer enjoy the brightness and nature.

This is a perfect house for a large family or friends to stay in.

Near by the house are few horse rentals. I highly recommend the swimming pool in Hella it has few hot tubs, sauna and slide for children.
