    Lovely house that’s entirely yours, with a written history of the place inside. Great view of the bay — we even saw a whale from the living room. Fantastic hosts, and during our 4-day stay we had zero issues with the house.

    went to the n1 to check in (other option was to go to guesthouse - but parking lot was full, or call directly but icelandic # would have cost money for my phone plan). karen drove out to greet, show thorshamar, etc - very personal touch. breakfast...

    We had the whole villa to ourselves which made a change from being in hotels. It had a lovely seating area inside with big patio style windows overlooking the harbour so you could relax and watch the birds. There was an outdoor decked area too...

    The facility was immaculate. Barrons Restaurant nearby was excellent. Had some added treats brought for us at breakfast time. Our sheep neighbors were just across the street from the villa in the morning.

Property info

Thorshamar is a old renovated house by the sea in Þórshöfn. The house has two double bedrooms, one room with two single beds and one room with a 140 cm bed. The bathroom has a walk in shower and a washer and a drier. Towels and linen are included. The kitchen was renovated in 2021 and is super nice. During the summer until mid August, breakfast is served at the local N1 convenience store, only a two minute walk from the house. After mid August, breakfast is placed in the kitchen and is self service.The sea view is amazing.

Neighborhood info

There are many beautiful hiking routs in our neighborhood, both in Langanes and Raudanes. This is an ideal location for birdwatchers and nature lovers. Many deserted farms in Langanes, very interesting to explore. Not much traffic (not yet anyway) you may find yourself alone from time to time and no other tourist in sight :) Very relaxing and rare. The village itself is quite small and everybody knows everybody there. You could call it a typical icelandic fishing village where everybody is going about their business as usual.
