Brilliant brilliant brilliant!

The place was fantastic, both in terms of the property and how beautiful it is and how well-equipped and clean it is, but also the location is excellent. The property overlooks the lake and is in the middle of the golden circle, closer to all the attractions. The hot tub was a highlight, and we could see the northern lights from the villa which was incredible! we even had the opportunity to watch the lights while sitting in the hot tub! Everything was perfect and communication with Borkur and Elin was great! A must-stay indeed! Thanks to our hosts!

Stunning place stunning location

Easy to find and get to sights on golden circle, good restaurants within 10-15 minute drive. Private within small community and overlooks river with breathtaking views. Everything you would need/want in a place. Good blue tooth speaker and dvd that’s uk compatible too. About 1hr 30 drive from airport but a pleasant drive. Stop en route at Selfoss for groceries us advised to stock up on arrival. Great hot tub that’s always at temperature, good utility and boot room, 2 good shower rooms, 1 being a stunning master en suite. Cannot recommend highly enough! Awesome

Fabulous house in a stunning location

The house is everything it promises to be from the description above. It is spacious, lovely and warm against Icelandic autumn. The hot tub is nice, the beds are comfy and the kitchen is well equipped. It was very clean, comfortable and well sound proofed (we had one night of heavy wind and rain which you could barely hear - the huge flocks of birds in the river below were surprisingly loud too!). The "river view" description really doesn't do the location justice - you are on a ridge above the river and will enjoy views over huge distances all the way to snow capped peaks in the distance. The sun rises spectacularly in front of you and, at night, you can watch the Northern Lights. A great location for touring too - just outside Skálholt, half an hour from Gulfoss and Geysir, 45 minutes from Þingvellir and an hour and a half from Reykjavik or the South Coast sights near Sólheimajökull.

About the host

Hosted by Elin and Borkur

Golden Circle Villas is a family owned company, established in 2014, that owns three villas in the South region of Iceland. The villas are located in a small greenhouse village, Laugarás, 3 km from the historical place, Skálholt Cathedral. The villas are all new or newly renovated. Two of the villas can accommodate 10 persons each and the third villa can accommodate 6-7 persons. The villas are rented seperately but it is ideal for larger groups to rent the villas all together as they have space for up to 27 persons. All our villas are located within 100 meters distance from each other.

Why they chose this property

We choose this location because of the short distance to Reykjavík and all the other attractions in the surrounding neighbourhood. This house is so beautiful and is located on the riverbank of Hvítá.

What makes this property unique

The river view and the style of the house. We find our house perfect because it´s spacious with many bedrooms and a large living room with open kitchen.
