Beautiful location underneath the glacier. Sheep in the fields. Very bucolic and close to Vik area sites (Solheimatunga glacier, Dyrholaey viewpoint, Reynisfjara black sand beach etc.) Amazing cleanliness, and wonderful meal made from local farm ingredients. Wonderful breakfast. Also, for dinner try the Icelandic lamb raised on the farm! So good.
United States of AmericaThis gem of a place was the highlight of our trip, the nicest and friendliest guesthouse we stayed out. The room was airy and spacious, the surrounding magical and the staff super nice and helpful. Extra bonus was the lamb pen, my city kid teenager had the best time hanging out up close with the animals.
