“Great stay between Dyrholaey and Vik”
A great stay between Dyrholaey and Vik, with a short drive to both. Huge room with a sink where one can brush teeth; nice bathroom; nice kitchen with all the necessary things. Self check-in is easy and quick. The hosts are super nice - we got a flat tire and they helped us out and recommended a mechanic near Vik. So we highly recommend this stay!

“A guesthouse to be back”
Everything was very clean Andre guesthouse has a fantastic view! The bed was very comfortable, perhaps the pillow not so much.

“Excellent stopover”
A short drive outside of Vik, only 5 minutes from the black sands beach, the guesthouse is a very comfortable and exceptionally clean place to stop over when visiting the south coast. Beds were very comfortable and despite the heavy winds, we felt very safe and protected from the weather outside. Good common facilities that were shared including a well equipped kitchen. Small sink in the room was very useful
