We truly enjoyed our stay. The hot pot and sauna were perfect after a long day exploring the Golden Circle and beyond! The beds were comfy and the deck was perfect for enjoying morning coffee. This house is the perfect home for a vacation in Iceland!

Excellent place to stay and great base to explore from

We had an excellent stay in Iceland. Just around the corner from Selfoss (easy for your grocery shop) and the main attractions from the golden circle are less than an hour’s drive away. The property is very tidy and cosy and Elin is a great host. Definitely a great place to stay

Easy check in. Beautiful place, perfect landing spot for visiting the South and West of Iceland and the golden circle. Elin made everything quite easy from initial questions about booking to answering questions during our stay. The sauna was amazing. The hot tub requires 3 hours to fill and we used only once because we were not comfortable letting in run all day (though we were told that would be ok). We had a wonderful trip.

Beautiful home in great location

We really enjoyed staying at Elin's cozy and modern home. Very welcoming and homey. Sometimes rentals feel like they are just rentals but this house felt like staying in a well cared for home. We had everything we needed, kitchen basics, linens, etc.. Only downside was we wish the Hotpot/Hot tub had been easier to use. We only got to enjoy it once on our 6 night stay but otherwise this place was great. Definitely recommend!

If you ever decide to come during summer, you know where to find us. Cheers Elin

Perfection

The location of this property is perfect! It’s close to Selfoss, all the main attractions of the Golden Circle as well as off the beaten path sights. It was so nice coming back to this cozy property after a long day of sightseeing to take in the beautiful surroundings and relax in the hot pot & sauna. The property owners go out of their way…literally, to familiarize you with the house and their country. I highly recommend this property.

Golden Circle Getaway

This house is the perfect place to stay while visiting Iceland. It is away from it all but close to many popular touring sights. It’s a great house to come to after you’ve been out exploring all day. It’s well stocked , beautifully furnished and very comfortable. Elin is the consummate hostess. She greets you on arrival at a designated location and escorts you to the house. We arrived on a morning when the roads were somewhat slippery and we were happy to have her lead the way. To my delight, she greeted us with a bottle of prosecco to celebrate my birthday (which was the reason for our trip). This house is also good for seeing the northern lights. Just walk out the door and there they are (if you’re lucky!). I highly recommend Elin’s house.

Gemütliches kleines Idyll

Das Ferienhaus ist ideal gelegen, um in verschiedene Richtungen Ausflüge zu unternehmen. Der Wohnraum ist modern und gemütlich eingerichtet. Die Küche ist komplett ausgestattet. Einige Gewürze und Lebensmittel sind bereits vorhanden und können benutzt werden. Es ist jedoch schade, dass der Hot Tub jedesmal drei Stunden braucht um vollzulaufen. Der Kamin war leider nur der Deko.

Selfoss house

We had a great stay at Elin's house. The location is perfect for exploring the Golden Circle and Reykjavik. The house was very warm and comfortable, with an extremely well-equipped kitchen which we made good use of. Elin and her husband met us and drove with us to the house which was much appreciated and she was only a phone call away if we had any questions or issues. Highly recommended.

Elin was very easy to work and communicate with. The house was very well appointed; we cooked a number of meals in the house. If any issues arose, Elin and her family were a call away. I’d highly recommend staying here and hope to do so again.

Outstanding in every way

Absolutely amazing! I first of all never leave reviews and secondly am the most neurotic person and nothing really meets my standards ever, except my own home. I felt completely at home here and the house is exactly as pictured—except it has the most amazing coffee machine that has sparked an addiction for me:) The sauna is beautiful. The house has everything you need and more. Plenty of condiments, towels, toiletries you may have forgotten, American charging plug adapters, etc. We spent a very long time researching where to stay in Iceland. This location is PERFECT! You’re less than an hour to Reykjavik which wasn’t of high interest to us. Being outside the city meant you were typically within 1.5 hours of EVERYTHING else you would want to see from Vik to Mt Esja and the erupting volcano. Elin was terrific to work with and extremely responsive. A+
