Excellent staff, good food, great location. Enjoyed watching milking cows and playing with the border collie at the farm house. A lovely place. We would definitely comeback❤️

Choi United States of America

The restaurant serves their own farm-made products - including dairy products for breakfast.

We like it so much that we stayed 3 nights there. Super nice restaurant and food was just wonderful... nice size rooms.

Anne United States of America

Nice farm house, nice restaurant, we had dinner there 3 nights in a row. Very nice breakfast. Friendly staff. Nice size room and beautiful aurora.

Anne United States of America

can’t be closer to Myvatn, no need to use the car once you are at the farm to visit the crater and the lake.

Ouliana France

Superb Breakfast. Had Volcanic bread there for the first time. Yummy

Bhaveshshah India

location, breakfast was excellent, unique dining setting.

Joanne Canada

loved the actual farm experience. You have your own log cabin and a five star restaurant!

Karen United States of America

The lady who checked us in was friendly and informative. Our waitress at dinner was excellent, I believe her name was Lalia. Going out in the barn to mingle with the cows after ordering our starters was acceptable. Everyone was laid back and very understanding of our enthusiasm for the property and animals. Breakfast while the cows were being milked and watching the border collie work was most charming.

Host Info

Host Review Score
Our property is originally a dairy farm, owned by the same family for more than 100 years. Some years ago we decided to open the farm for guests. They can experience the real farm life by watching our cows through a glass window from the restaurant and even try warm and fresh milk during milking time. We specialize in homemade and healthy products in our restaurant - from farm to table. In 2004 we decided to build a guesthouse and now we have 26 rooms, all with private bathrooms and most with floor heating system. Traditional Icelandic breakfast is served in our Vogafjós restaurant, 3 minutes walk from the guesthouse. The rooms are classical and well furnished and designed to let our guests feel good and relax in a unique natural environment. There is free wifi in all rooms and public areas. We are open all year round.
I love to travel and see new things. I enjoy good, fresh food and that is the reason for why we focus on fresh, healthy and local food. As I am a farmer I love my animals.
Our neighbourhood has a lot to offer. Unique nature, tranquility, rich birdlife, geothermal areas, volcanoes and much, much more. In our area you can always find some activities that suit you. Super-Jeep tours, dogsledding, bike tours, snow-shoeing, cross-country skiing and hiking are only examples of what you can do in the lake Mývatn area. It is also amazing to travel to the highlands during the summertime and the lake Mývatn area is an ideal place to depart from.
