This property has the wow factor! It is absolutely amazing and should be not missed if you’re in Iceland. The property owner was incredibly kind, accommodating, and very helpful. You will be very sorry if you miss out on staying here. I will give it five stars and then some.

The owners were amazing and friendly. Our little cabin was super clean. Breakfasts were delicious. Would definitely have loved a television in our cabin, would have been nice to relax with a movie after a long day of sightseeing.

The Inn Keepers of this property are amazing! They are personable and keep their guest houses clean; their breakfast spread is a nice cultural experience; and they took the time to explain Road.IS and how the app works in an effort to protect our safety. I highly recommend this property!

Absolute favorite stay of the trip! Loved the location and the room concept! Room was clean and cozy. Great place for northern lights! Hosts were so nice! Great breakfast- skyr prepared with the owner's mother's recipe, local smoked salmon, local lamb, homemade jams and hummus- Delicious! I wish I could have more of it!

We absolutely loved this property! The isolated cabins with the privacy wall around the entrance was appreciated. While we stayed, we were lucky enough to see the northern lights. Staff took the time to come around and knock on our doors to let us know! Although we already we outside when she came around, we’d set up our camera and we looking in the wrong direction. Really appreciate her coming around to make sure we saw it if we wanted to. Breakfast was included and was a great way to start the day. Clubhouse stays open late if you’d like a hot drink before bed. Staff were nothing but friendly and helpful.

The room was immaculate, and created a cozy and relaxing atmosphere which was a wonderful balance to the rainy day. In the morning the breakfast was true Icelandic staple from smoked fish to homemade jam and skyr, great tasting coffee . The host was very attentive making sure that we have all we need and her presence was great complement to the wonderful breakfast.

The guesthouses are beautiful and quite spacious. Good black out blinds and comfy beds. It was a nice treat to have shampoo, conditioner and shower gel from an Icelandic company. Breakfast was SO GOOD. My favourite was the skyr, and my partner loved the tuna salad. The wifi in the guesthouses was down at the time of our visit, but was working in the lounge/common area. It wasn’t a major issue for us because I had data on my phone, and we were just exhausted, but for the price I would have expected a price reduction or a “gift” to make up for the lack of wifi.

Superb!!!
Beautiful, clean, comfortably sized, quiet guest houses. Hosts were very accommodating and gave good information regarding things to do. Location was great for our travel plans. Would recommend a shower curtain or enclosed shower stall (hard to find anywhere in Iceland!!), and a fan for the sleeping area. Light-blocking curtains (necessary!) made the room warm for sleeping. Opening the window was problematic because of the never-ending daylight.

We stayed here in March 2023. Check in was easy and the owner was very nice. She accommodated our early schedule and had the breakfast prepared for us. The breakfast was excellent and the homemade skyr was my favorite! The area is very beautiful and quiet. Snowy landscape and mountains surround it. The northern lights even showed up for a little bit! Very beautiful.

Breathtaking scenery, delicious homemade breakfast
What an amazingly situated place to stay. In the middle of nowhere in the best way. Not far from Höfn but still a world away. The scenery and landscape that surround you are amazing. And the best part may be the homemade breakfast. In late August we were served skyr, hummus, tuna salad, and smoked lamb that were all homemade and extremely delicious (alongside the usual breads, jams, fruit, hard boiled eggs, fixings, etc). The room was also very clean and comfortable, a great place to rest and refresh. I wish we could have stayed multiple nights instead of just one.

This place was the biggest surprise on our Ring Road Tour and really is a hidden gem. We loved everything about the place. The accommodations were new, clean and comfortable. The breakfast was amazing. The absolute best part of the property is the setting. Just off the main road, on a farm and quiet. You could hear every bird chirp and Sheep baa from miles away. We had a very busy start to our trip but this was the quiet place to recharge. We wished we could have stayed another night. Now temper your expectations there is not a lot to do on site and it is 20 min out of town but to relax and take in the beauty of the region and recharge, nothing better.
