The only thing didn’t work well was the cold water. It was hard to take shower with no cold water to mix. The rest was everything fantastic!

“Beautiful surroundings and a house that felt like home away from home”
Our stay was wonderful! Iceland’s weather may be unpredictable, but its beauty more than makes up for it. Coming back at the end of the day to this beautiful house with stunning surroundings made our trip even more special. It felt warm and welcoming, like coming home. Our family (four siblings with our spouses) absolutely loved it—a true home away from home.

“Nice property, but needs some maintenance to justify the rate being charged”
The proportion of the property was good. It was very clean and current design. Good utensils etc.

Beautiful and cosy countryhouse in a very nice location with amazing view. The jacuzzi was a big plus although it was outside and because of the weather we couldn't use it. Very clean and nicely decorated

Amazing location right in the middle of the lava fields, spectacular views. Very cozy living room/kitchen really felt like a home away from home from the second we stepped into the house. Hottub was a great plus

“Great, and amazing value”
Amazing location, and really tucked away from anyone else, really comfortable beds, lots of facilities, with washer and dryer I was able to clean all my clothes on our last day in Iceland so got back home with clean clothes. Also was able to rise my car with the hose in the facility room. Cooked a full dinner on the hob and oven and both clean and worked well. The hot tub was nice and warm (bit too warm) but we didn’t follow the instructions on the wall to remove the lid as soon as you arrive to cool down, totally our fault but just a FYI for anyone else coming in.
