This family-run guest house, off the Ring Road in southeast Iceland, is 7 km from Höfn. Free WiFi is available.

Haukaberg House's offers a bright accommodation featuring blackout curtains and private entrance. The house has four bedrooms and three bathrooms, all with a shower and hairdryer. My friends and I ended up having an impromptu stay at Elín’s house due to road closures, and it turned out to be a truly lovely experience. It’s only a shame we couldn’t stay longer. The house was cosy and spotless, with all the appliances we needed—the coffee machine was especially appreciated. Despite the freezing weather outside, the place was warm and the duvet wonderfully comfortable. I also loved reading through her personalised guidebook, which was filled with interesting and genuinely helpful recommendations. Elín was a responsive and thoughtful host who made sure we had everything we needed. You can tell that a lot of care and attention to detail goes into her hosting. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.
