Beautiful setting on the Icelandic coast. Very peaceful and quiet with gorgeous views. A very good place to stay to explore the Snaefells peninsula. Owners hospitable and helpful when it came to getting the most from our day trips; felt very welcome.

The bed was extremely comfortable and the entire atmosphere was warm and welcoming. We lucked out and were able to see the Northern Lights when we were there and were even able to see them from the picture window in the kitchen when it got cold. Our host was nice enough to text us that they were visible, which was an amazing touch. Breakfast was delicious and filling and we got great travel advice from our host (as we had just arrived in Iceland). All in all, it was a wonderful first night on our trip and we would highly recommend to anyone!

Great place to stay at Snæfellsnes Peninsula. Brand new facilities, excellent breakfast, lovely view with high chance to view aurora lights.

This place was our favorite to stay!! The interior was much more than you would expect with beautiful architecture. This place was far from any city so it was great for the northern lights. Amazing views of the islands and mountains. The breakfast spread was delicious!!! A very lovely living room with full kitchen inside for use. Don't let lack of reviews keep you from staying here. Awesome place!!!

Beautiful remodeled and modernized farmhouse. The owners/hosts are incredibly dedicated and know a lot about their place, history and the area around them. The rooms are all themed according to the building they are in (tractor shed rooms have different tractor themes, cow barn rooms are cow themed) and comply to the highest standards with its floor heating, sound proofing and an incredibly well equipped shared kitchen in the tractor shed. The breakfast was a variety of regional and Icelandic delights, from joghurt and cornflakes over bread and toast with savory food and home-made jam to Icelandic sweet bread. The hosts were very supportive as they helped us planing according to wheather, clouds (northern lights) and road conditions. All in all, this was for sure the most incredible stay we had in our Iceland trip and I would recommend to anyone to stay at least one night in this extraordinary home.

This place... If you enjoy desolate surroundings, architecture and farming history, make sure to stay a couple of nights at Drangar, chill out, stroll around the neighbourhoods, get to know the hosts and just take in the place in your own pace. On the outside, it still has the appearence of an abandoned dairy farm, but the inside is rebuilt with a real eye for detail. (Sorry for the rotated picture, idk why that happened)

“High quality architect designed guest house with warm friendly atmosphere”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 1 night
There was nothing not to like.
Drangar is a family owned country guesthouse, with big ambitions that it's swiftly achieving. Location is beautiful (although be aware that the road that approaches is a gravel road, so you may want to take it steady on the drive in), the architect-designed complex is high quality and manages to achieve a friendly, family atmosphere whilst looking modern and cutting edge. Think lots of timber, concrete and metal. The buildings themselves are an achievement to be proud of. The rooms we stayed in are themed on different tractors (another win with me as I love them) and there's another set themed on the local friendly bovines. However, the breakfast was the thing that made me want to stay longer (apart from the views and the comfort). The family are very hospitable, and the spiced bread hand made by Johanna is just the best! Wish they sold it in loaves to go. Considering these guys have only been going for a year, it's like they've been in the hospitality business forever, they really do know how to make you feel at home. All in all, we wish we had longer, and will definitely return some day, hopefully soon...

Nothing. We definitely hope to be back one day!
Everything is great ! Our room was excellent, very comfortable, cozy, clean and very well finished. The common area is useful if you want to cook something on your own, otherwise you need to drive to the nearby cities (approx 30min from the guesthouse). Excellent breakfast with homemade products.

The architect-designed beautiful renovation of this farm property is incredible.

Warm and welcoming hosts; very easy to communicate with. Highly recommended!

“Great place to stay in a beautiful off the beaten trail part of Iceland.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children

This is a rebuilt farm that has been tastefully converted into guesthouse. The rooms were great, the common area/kitchen were great, the host was helpful and warm. The photos of the guesthouse do not do justice to what you see and get. We were more than pleased. Most importantly, the guesthouse is located in a beautiful, remote area that is well worth the brief diversion off the ring road around Iceland. The nearest town is about 30-40 minutes from the guesthouse but it too is worth visiting. Restaurant was great and it's a charming place in a gorgeous setting.

there was nothing i didn't like. i only wished there were more people to share the beauty of this property. my son and i were alone and would have loved to share our stories and hear those of others. when the word gets out this will be a packed house.
the buildings are still freshly renovated. the land is beautiful and magical. the tractor house where we stayed has a feeling of home and the shared kitchen seemed a great opportunity for travellers to come together and share stories of their icelandic adventures.

Views out the room windows were not quite able to capitalize on this spectacular location (our room backed onto a hillside, whereas the other side of the building looked onto a parking lot, beyond which lay the sea). This was only a minor issue that was more than made up for by the beauty of the locale in general.
Beautiful setting on the Icelandic coast. Very peaceful and quiet with gorgeous views. A very good place to stay to explore the Snaefells peninsula. Owners hospitable and helpful when it came to getting the most from our day trips; felt very welcome.
