The cottages are exactly as new, comfortable, and beautiful as the photos. Very well designed. Almost everything you’d need is provided. And the views out every window are gorgeous. Fields, rolling hills, the fjord in the distance, and Icelandic horses prancing around in the field next door.

Joyce United States of America

Such a cute little town and these cottages are perfect, everything you need in a small space, but still comfortable. loved it!

Aleksei Estonia

Perfect stop for our long drive. Short drive into town to the grocery store and Seal Museum. The kids enjoyed the bunk bed.

Karen United States of America

Location was very quiet and views were fantastic! Everything you could need was there. They really thought of everything!

Susan United States of America

The kitchen was really well stocked with all types of appliances. We cooked and had a nice breakfast there. There was also a fridge we could use. Lovely. It was really clean. Some chairs on the porch would be a lovely addition. I would stay here again.

Anna Romania

It's a very convenient cottage, with lovely grounds our children enjoyed exploring.

Jacqueline United States of America

Great place - there are near 10 cottages on a lawn not far from a village, the cottage is small but it is very compact and you can find everything you need. It was very cold outside but it was so warm inside :). And this is the best place to observe northern lights. And one more great point - we couldn't fly to Iceland in planned day because of COVID restriction, so we asked to move our stay and they allow to do it without any payment even free cancellation was expired for that moment, and actually they shouldn't do it. It was such an unexpected kindness from their side. Thank you!

Very easy check in and out. Simple but very comfortable and accommodating.

Mary France

Cute little cottage that gives you almost everything you need. Comfy beds, small kitchen with stove and microwave. And best of all if weather is good, a chance to catch Aurora borealis

  • Hello, Have you found a solution to the shower issue which many guests have mentioned? What cleaning methods are being used due to covid, please?
    Hi :) Yes, we have just gotten a new shower head and shower valves for all cottages, finally! Cottages are cleaned very well with disinfectant and finished off with a sterilising fogging machine.

This very cosy cottage is located in a beautiful secluded spot (7km from #1) where, in winter, the chances to experience the wild dance of the northern lights are excellent and in the summertime you’ll experience the serene atmosphere of Icelandic nature as it vibrates with life. Come and enjoy the surroundings which include a beautiful valley with a creek trickling through it, smallest forrest on earth, beautiful old church and hiking paths or keep warm and cosy inside while you relax. In the cottage you’ll find a small kitchenette equipped with all essentials to make a simple meal. There is a fridge, two plate stove top, coffee maker, toaster and a kettle. Beds are made, linen is included. The cottage sleeps up to 4 adults. In the cottage is a bunk-bed that consists of 1 1/2 sized lower bed and a single sized top bed, and a sleeping sofa that can be folded out to double size. This cottage has a private bathroom and shower, towels and shower-soap are included.
For the cottage's closest surroundings, there is a very small forrest, a beautiful valley and an old church and cemetery which are well worth taking a walk for. While it is dark in Iceland you have excellent chances to experience the northern lights. Since the cottages are in a secluded spot, there aren't many street lamps which gives you the best view to the stars.
