“A perfect place for a short stay in the country.”
It is a farm in the country and we have stayed there before. The owner is very friendly and willing to do anything for you. He took our grandson for a ride inside the stables , his dream , as the weather was too bad to go outside.

“Memorable Stay”
Our host was lovely and went out of his way to make us comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay, talking with him, and seeing him interact with his dog and the horses. Thanks for a very memorable stay.

We had a wonderful stay at the Guesthouse! Our host, Ríkarður, was extremely welcoming and friendly. He gave us good advice regarding the roads and route to take. The weather was bad and he offered for us to stay a bit longer after the checkout time. Everything was very clean and tidy. Super warm and comfy. Breakfast was perfect, good variety and very fresh, situated upstairs in a room with a magnificent view! We met the most adorable dog, who greeted us and asked for lots of belly rubs :) We didn’t want to leave and really hope to come back and stay one day :) Many thanks, from Suthan and Claire from Australia.
