“Beautiful small house in good location”
Great location for the ferry to Mykines and to explore the west of Vagar. The house is next to a pretty stream and is perfect for a couple. The sleeping area is very comfortable.

“Fabulous quirky, cosy little house near airport”
It was quirky and a lovely cosy space to base ourselves. Very close to the airport and next to the harbour in the town. It was very clean and had everything we needed. The loft bed was something different too and cosy and comfortable. The owner was great and friendly. We had absolutely no issues and hope to go again someday.

Lovely little house next to a little stream. Great attention to details and cleanliness. Very close to the airport (I came walking - 30 min), bus station (2 minutes) and convenience store. Great as a base to explore Trælanípa and Mulafossur.

“Nice cottage in Sorvagur”
Nice small cottage near Sorvagur harbour. House is fully equipped, small kitchen and bathroom were ok. The house was clean, and contact with the owners was great. There is A/C available (mostly for heating). Also there is a bus stop nearby and you can easily reach Thorshavn or airport. In 500 m. walking distance you can find restaurant and grocery shop. We liked the stay in the Gróthusið

“Cosy stone cottage”
A charming little cottage right next to a downhill flowing stream. It was comfortable enough for a couple. We found the sleeping area up the ladder really cosy and comfortable. A tiny kitchen area where you can cook some basic meals.

“Close to the airport”
This little stone house is 5 minutes from the airport which is convenient for a late flight arriving into the Faroe Islands. It's a basic accommodation but has everything one needs to make breakfast (except a toaster) and a basic evening meal. The climb up the ladder into the sleeping loft is not for anyone with mobility issues, but for us it was a fun novelty.

“Amazing, cozy and warm house in Sørvágur”
The house is super cozy and clean, excellent position and overall the best place to stay in Sørvágur I’ve been on a quest to try and experience all the Faroese small houses on booking, and this is definitely top-tier material.
