    “Such a cozy little home with 3 bedrooms and one large living room. There was a snowmobile outside too but unfortunately there was nobody we could reach out to ask if we could utilize it. Lovely views from the bedroom windows and there was so much...”

Located 1.9 mi from Egilsstaðir, Finnsstaðir horse ranch features accommodation with a patio and free WiFi. The house consists of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with a shower, a fully equipped kitchen, dining room, lounge and a laundry room. Horse riding tours and a petting zoo at the farm.
Sigurður Hlíðar Jakobsson and Helga Guðrún Sturlaugsdóttir, usually Helga and Siggi, are the farmers and your hosts at Finnsstadir. Helga is a pharmacy technician by trade, but a host and a horseman by passion. Siggi is a mechanic and a jack-of-all-trades. He speaks Icelandic and Horse interchangeably but is more about translating words into action. When you drive down to the farmyard, you will most likely be greeted with the warm and cheerful hostess. That would be Helga, all prepared to accommodate your wants and needs.
Finnsstaðir is located in the center of East Iceland which makes it an ideal station for day trips to the Eastfjords, the fishing villages by the coast, the waterfalls Hengifoss and Fardagafoss, Hallormsstadaskógur National Forest, Vök Baths etc. For hikers, there are plenty of interesting and diverse hiking paths in the vicinity at all difficulty levels.
