“Lovely 3 bedroom house with everything you need.”
A wonderful house. It had everything we needed for our stay. There was also complete information about all the tourist locations and useful information. Although we did not meet the hosts, we felt their care and kindness. I would recommend this house to all my friends.

“A truly welcoming and cozy home!”
The cozy house is truly welcoming, well-kept, and clean. It is equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. It is fully equipped with everything you need for cooking and washing. The staff is very friendly and provided us with welcome snacks. The house exudes a truly warm and welcoming atmosphere. A true cozy home ideal for finding refuge on windy and rainy days. It's a shame we could only stay one night!

We loved this accommodation. After a very funny encounter with the accommodation, we were accommodated in a beautiful house with a breathtaking view. The owner was very nice and helpful. We were very sorry that we only stayed here for one night. A truly beautiful and peaceful place. We would be very happy to come back here again. We greet the owner very much!

“It's a cozy place, with a farm nearby”
The host is very thoughtful and provided a handwritten note, and the space in the house is quite large. However, the style of this place feels more like staying at a relative's home; everything is well-equipped, even with a power adapter, but the wardrobe has items stored in it, and there are signs of everyday life in every corner. If you're looking for a more commercial experience, I wouldn't recommend this place. But for me, here is good!!!!

Cosy home with all amenities in a nice farm. The owner was nice to give us a tour of the stable and introduced us to some of the horses. We would definitely be back here the next time we are in Iceland.

“Nice stay, amazing people.”
Location is amazing, apartment came with sofa bed, a bunk bed and a queen bed(sufficient for 6 adults). Kitchen was equipped with basic amenities and more. Restroom was clean and had fresh towels. Host was amazing and showed us around even though we arrived a little later than expected. Property has pets, and we were greeted by a gentlecat in the morning. :)
