This was a serene place to stay. 15 minutes from town but a waterfall view.
Communication was excellent. Can’t wait to return.

Stayed here with our toddler during our winter Iceland road trip. Check in was super easy and the cabin had all the essentials we needed! Loved the feel of the cabin and would be the perfect place to view the aurora if it’s visible.

This was exactly what I was looking for quiet, cozy, and isolated. Stepping outside the cottages to see the northern lights was a dream come true. For me, it’s a five-star experience, and I’d happily stay here again on my next trip to Iceland.
For those who need to know: the hot water is sufficient for standard showers, but if you tend to linger, you might want to keep that in mind. Otherwise, it’s an absolutely wonderful place."

Great property! Very clean. Upon entering the guesthouse was very warm which was nice since Iceland is very cold in Jan. We were able to see the Northern Lights so clearly here since there’s very little light pollution. Area was very quiet. Would definitely stay here again.

The stay was really good, the cottage is very comfortable and has space even being a tiny house like is very spacious . The only problem is that there’s no hot water, you can have maybe 10-15 mins of hot water in a day! In a freezing snowy day it is not a good situation.
