The town is a scenic 1-hour drive from the main town, and I can confidently say it's absolutely worth every minute. The breathtaking views along the way are unmatched, showcasing the stunning landscapes that Iceland is famous for. Upon arrival, the resort itself is a true gem—comfortable, clean, cozy, and incredibly welcoming. Every corner of the resort exudes warmth and charm, making it feel like a home away from home. The owner is exceptionally kind and caring, always ready to assist and ensure that guests have everything they need for a perfect stay. Their hospitality truly enhances the experience. We have had the best stay here, filled with relaxation and joy, and I would wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone looking for a memorable getaway. It’s a perfect spot to unwind and soak in the beauty of Iceland!

Loved this place and our host. Added bonus of a sauna and a hottub and some delicious homemade icelandic bread. Perfect stop over when travelling the ring road and only 5 minutes from the majestic Hengifoss. I do hope life brings us this way again.

We got trapped in the town during a snow storm and we booked the place last minute. The host was as nice and helpful as it gets! She upgraded our room to the one with balcony, as some guests didn’t arrive due to the road closure and she let us stay longer while waiting for a passage through the mountains. The room was beautiful, big, clean and cozy! We loved the view and the bathroom. Even the soap in the bathroom was special, the details were just amazing. If all guesthouses would be on this level, the world would be a nicer place. We will come back!

Very cute room, the bed is probably the most comfortable bed we slept in on our vacation in Iceland. The room is not huge so don’t bring too much luggage up to the room! The owner is very friendly & is available to help.

What a wonderful little farm stay. The guest house was very spacious, the jacuzzi was hot and ready when we arrived, the hosts were very friendly and allowed the kids to visit the horses in the stable. The property had toys for the kids, a highchair at the table for the baby to eat, and very comfortable home-like charm to it. One of our favorite stays during our Iceland holiday.

Lovely place with the guesthouse fully conceived and built by the host Ragnar, with whom we appreciated chatting. He prepared a very nice breakfast. The appartment was cosy with a nice view, the kitchen fully equipped and the beds comfortable. We enjoyed walking to the « red chair » (local attraction made by Ragnar that you will spot from the road) and beyond.

The hostes is SUPERNICE !! The place is beautiful and breathes love and care, the room charming and spacious. Well equipped kitchen with wonderful coffee and delicious home made bread!! The surrounding is breathtaking. Not a sound but the wind and nature. We had a great night sleep - the beds are so comfartable. Not an issue that bathroom is shared- there are 2 right next to the room. Would have loved to stay longer than just one night - perfect place to have a little rest in between while touring Iceland. Purety at its best.
