    It's abit far from the town, so you need a car, but worth the drive

    This summer house is beautiful, with amazing views and horses in the adjacent fields. Very quiet and private too. The hot tub outside is a big bonus! You find all amenities, the rooms and beds are very comfortable and the owners are very nice. Would definitely recommend

    Nothing! This place is perfect for a stay in south Iceland.

    Amazing home from home! Super cosy, especially with the underfloor heating and nice lighting. Well stocked kitchen including condiments for cooking. Loved the hot tub and coffee machine. Great views. Two bathrooms - one with a shower and one with a bath. All very clean.

    I was worried about how we would get the keys as wasn't sure of our arrival time. I need not have worried as there was a key code box. It would have been nice to know this well in advance as I wasn't sure and awaited a reply which wasn't too quick due to the Christmas break. Everything else was perfect .thank you so much.

    Amazing space. Clean and homely. Lots of kitchen equipment. Loved the hot tub. The kitchen and remote location..

    All was perfect!! Nothing to add. :)

    Everything!! The location is great, situated in the middle of a quiet and lovely field with amazing views of the snow-covered mountain. Additionally, it's just a couple of minutes away from a beautiful black sand beach. The house itself has a charming decoration that creates a cozy and warm environment from the moment you step in. One of the highlights of the house is the jacuzzi, which enhances the overall experience and adds an extra touch of luxury. The host has taken special care in attending to every little detail to ensure a fully enjoyable stay. By the way, we hope you had the chance to enjoy the bottle of wine that we left as a token of our appreciation.

    The cabin was a great place to stay for a couple days. It's slightly off the main/ring road, but not far enough to be a pain to get to. Plenty of parking and space for our family of 3. Kitchen was well appointed.

    Area that connected the sleeping quarters to the rest of the house was odd and wasn't completely weatherproof. It rained the 2nd night we were there and shoes left in that area ended up soaked by a leak in that area's roof. Would recommend keeping shoes and coats inside one of the main sections of the house. But this wouldn't discourage me from staying here again.

    Very comfortable, quiet and clean.

    There is nothing I didn't like.

    The place is secluded next to the farm with Icelandic horses and that is the best part of the location. The amenities are top-notch and the choices of decor inside the home is beautiful and very classy. I will recommend this place to everyone and will visit again if I come to Iceland.

Hot tub outside was hot all the time and we could relax after long day. Cabin was away from main road so we had a chance to see the northern lights 😀
