For fans of the Hannah Kent novel Burial Rites and those interested in the famous Icelandic story of Agnes Magnúsdóttir this is a special place to stay -with the historical Tjorn church and yard right next door. And the beautifully developed historical site at Þrístapar with dramatic short trail and audio tour is only a short drive away. Unlike many places you stay in Iceland you’ll probably get to meet the owner, in this case the lovely Olga who is renovating this old farmhouse.

“Lovely”
Lovely reconstructed guest house in the middle of nowhere- literally. Beautiful decoration, large kitchen to share. Mysterious surrounding - our room was with a view to a little cemetery which is related to a famous icelandic story about two executed murderers.

“Excellent place to stay for Hvitserkur.”
Comfortable large room. Large dining kitchen with sea views if weather the were better. Comfortable lounge too. Much better than the place that I stayed in opposite Hvitserkur last year.

“Epic First night in Iceland”
Location was as planed, in the middle of no where, very isolated and quite but not scary. We arrived pretty late and the host was there to welcome us and give us a quick tour. Beds were amazingly comfortable ! There was a fully equipped kitchen, with coffee & tea available as well as some banana & granola to help yourself. Bathroom was super super clean. It was perfect for us, we were there less than 10hrs, it was our first night of our itinerary

I really liked the house, it's very cosy and it almost felt like home. And it's just a short drive from the seals :-)

“Comfortable, spacious, clean & surrounded by empty coastline”
The photos didn't do it justice, it is spacious, comfortable, lovely rustic Icelandic decor. The kitchen had things fir cooking pretty much anything.
