“Best accomodation”
Our favourite accomodation in Iceland, a beautiful house in a beautiful area. We shared the house with a kind guy, as there are two bedrooms for rent. We had everything we needed, and the owner's two dogs were extremely cute and playful. Not to mention, that northern lights was amazing from there.

Everything was absolutely lovely! Quiet rural setting with friendly sheepdogs, but close to Husavik / Myvatn / Goddafoss. Inside was comfy and kitchen facilities were excellent. We loved our 2 nights here.

“Comfortable stay on the farm”
The accommodation is a detached house with a living room, kitchen and two separate bedrooms, which are rented separately - if you book a room for two, expect to share the rest of the apartment with another couple. The bedrooms are relatively small with minimal storage space, the rest of the space, including the large terrace, is even more generous. The kitchen is well equipped and it is nice that coffee, tea and basic cooking utensils are available. We had the entire unit at our disposal and enjoyed our stay very much - thank you to the hostess for the warm welcome, the dogs for accompanying us on the walk and all the animals on the farm for the atmosphere. Plus - the midnight sun... absolute satisfaction and recommendation!!

The area the house is located, the warm welcome, the adorable dogs. I were the only guest on both nights, so I had the whole house for myself. In the kitchen everything is high quality (silverware, plates, cooking pots and pans...etc). Bed was comfortable too and the whole house was very warm and cozy. It was clean and very tidy. Felt like a home 🙂 I would definitely stay here again.

“A great place to stay if you like people and animals and want to explore the north of Iceland 🇮🇸”
This is a very beautiful flat with two separated sleeping rooms. It’s embedded on the farm with sheep and two dogs, so you can enjoy a little bit of Icelandic country life. The kitchen is fully equipped but doesn’t have an oven but a microwave instead. I enjoyed my two nights stay very much. I was lucky to have the flat for myself in the first night and shared it with two lovely ladies in the second night.

“Great stay close to Husavík”
Actually it´s a spacious cottage that you only have to share with one other room: quite the luxury, even more for the fair price. Located on a farm, surrounded by animals and two lovely dogs who want to play all the time

“Superb accommodation on a farm”
This was our best accommodation on our Iceland trip. Excellent in all respects. Comfortable room, shared kitchen, bathroom, lounge, (with one other guest room). Great location on a farm, with two sheep dogs who will chase a ball with you all day.

“Our favourite place to stay on our tour around Iceland. The owner's dogs will keep you amused.”
Very roomy and well equipped. The owner's dogs will keep you amused for hours. Only stayed 2 nights and wish it could have been longer. Great location for whale watching and other attractions

One of the best stays we had in Iceland. This was a house clearly already before they made it an accommodation so its equipped with everything you need. The kitchen was complete, washing machine and comfortable beds. They have two dogs that will keep you busy when you're outside :)
