We loved the hosts, the room, the shower, the wifi, the cute dogs they have around and the great breakfast
IsraelBest place in Iceland Staff very friendly and helpfull. Cottage had everything you might need, very clean and comfortable.
IsraelWe stayed in a two bedroom cottage and it was absolutely perfect to explore the Myvatn Lake area. The place is well equipped and quite spacious. Be sure not to miss the breakfast if you are staying there - they have a small buffet of local/homemade products and it was delicious. Would stay there again only for the breakfast ! They also sell some of their farm products on site which was great.
LuxembourgThe setting of this property is the highlight. The views, especially at sunset, were just amazing. It is well situated to exploring the many interesting sights around Lake Myvatn. Our "cabin" was smaller than I had anticipated, as was the bed. Nevertheless, it was comfortable and we had a good night's sleep there.
United States of AmericaGreat location for exploring Lake Myvatn. The guesthouse was perfect for my family and we loved the breakfast. Don't forget a head net for the midges!
United States of AmericaExcellent value for the location and the quality of the accommodations. Traveling with young children and this cottage is big enough to comfortably house the family.
United States of AmericaNice location and the cabin was new and very clean. The hosts were pleasant and gave recommendations for food in the area. Also a big fan of the dogs around the property. Love a furry welcoming committee.
United States of AmericaIncredibly scenic location close in to everything we wanted to see at Myvatn. Went for walks around the property. Nice breakfast, decent communal kitchen where we made dinner. Breakfast in the main house was good.
United States of AmericaAltogether a great experience, mostly due to friendly and accomodating staff. Cabin is quite nice, view at breakfast is great. And the breakfast is great too.

Located on the shores of Lake Mývatn, right by Dimmuborgir lava formations and the crater Hverfjall. Established in 2006, the family-run guesthouse provides accommodation in cottages and double rooms with private facilities. All guests at Dimmuborgir Guesthouse have access to cooking facilities and free Wi-Fi connection. From the guesthouse you will have easy access to Lake-Mývatn and multiple hiking routes. The guesthouse has an excellent location for the northern lights and our guests have access to a glass hall, very ideal for relaxing and waiting for the lights. The pond in front of the hall creates very special photo opportunities since it does not completely freeze during winter. Sightseeing tours to lake-Mývatn are offered from the guesthouse. These tours offer a great opportunity to explore the nature and history of this special lake. Truly a birdwatchers must! Additionally you can take a look at a traditional Icelandic smokehouse and try fresh or smoked trout :)
One of the family.
Surrounded by wonders of nature such as Dettifoss, Lake Myvatn, Dimmuborgir, Hverfjall, Krafla, Hverir. We regularly host the northern lights :)
