A lovely quiet lakeside stay with amenities only a short drive away.

Wonderful location in what is clearly a much loved family holiday home. It's 20 minutes drive from the main visitor centre at Thingvellir and 25 minutes from Selfoss and very easy to find. It was a cold few days but the cottage warmed up very quickly and stayed warm. The hot tub was a lovely spot to relax and stargaze. The children stayed in the bunk bed room and loved that there was a small box of toys in there (my youngest slept with the cuddly duck each night). The kitchen had everything we needed to cook for ourselves and to clean. There was a key for the laundry room so we could get to the hoover. There were lots of blankets for evenings on the sofa and there was plenty of hot water and towels. The beds were comfy and we slept well. There were dishwasher tablets available and washing powder in the laundry room should we have needed it (we didn't but nice to know we could have). The arrival instructions were well communicated, we had no issues with getting in and out of the barrier. The nearby Lake is simply stunning and the children were happiest just skimming stones at the water's edge. Due to the lack of light pollution we got some wonderful photos of the Aurora.

Very nice homely cottage

Nice cottage, isolated and perfect to relax. The owner answered quickly to open the gate and we had no trouble getting there. A lot of space for only two people (up to six people can stay, but it's probably best for 4) and a very homey feeling. The kitchen was fully equipped and in general we had everything we needed for our stay.

Lovely Cabin by the lake

Lovely little cabin, 50m from the lake. It was very cosy and warm, with good facilities. The hot-tub was a plus, although unfortunately the weather was so wet we didn't use as much as we would have liked. Great location, close to many interesting spots, at the same quite remote.

Lovely cosy and warm property - ample space for a family of four. Great location and had the added bonus of a hot tub- which the kids enjoyed especially. Well positioned for travelling around the golden circle / secret lagoon.

Warm, cosy cottage with everything you need for a good holiday.

The lodge is well located for The Golden Circle and is extremely well equipped. It’s lovely and warm inside and the hot tub was warm and clean. We had a lovely stay here.

Pragmatic - fine for a short stay

- quiet and peaceful surroundings - good size for a group of 4 adults(2 couples), wouldn't recommend going there with more people - well equipped kitchen - lake nearby - perfect for day trips to the sights in Thingvellir National Park
