About this property

Hilltop Cabin Hekla - Golden circle, mountain view

Located right in the Golden circle in the heart of South of Iceland, Hilltop Cabin Hekla is only a few minutes away from the countries most popular attractions. A fifteen minute drive takes you to the magnificent hotspring Geysir and the iconic Gullfoss is not far away. On the way you can experience Þingvellir, a World Heritage site.

After a full day of experiencing the unique nature of Iceland relax in a stylish cabin with modern comforts. What could possibly be better than to enjoy the Midnight Sun or the Northern Lights in a hot tub with water from the local hotspring?

Awesome cabin in Iceland!
Our family absolutely loved the Hekla Hilltop cabin. The hot tub, the record player, the "cave", and the location! Short drive to the Geyser and Gullfoss. The owners were great in all communications and made our trip very easy. This is especially helpfull in your first night in a new country. Highly recommneded!!!!!!!

Schöne Unterkunft
Wir fanden alles prima, es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. Der Hot Tub war ein absolutes Highlight. Eine Sache war ein wenig nervig: Es waren leider extrem viele Mücken im Haus...

Perfect!
This was our favorite accommodation over the 9days we spent in Iceland. So peaceful! We all loved the hot tub on the hillside. Stunning! My daughters loved the reading nook which they used as their bed. The record player was a nice touch. Had fun listening to music while relaxing in the evening. Memorable stay.

Great location!
The home is as advertised and is extremely nice and comfortable. It works as a great base camp to explore the northern portion of the Golden Circle yet is still remote and out in the country.
