    Best hot pot so far. Well equipped kitchen, nice hosts. Outstanding scenery. We had part of the guesthouse for ourselves. There was a friendly dog on site.

    Amazing guest house in a quiet area. Kitchen and bathroom are shared and the kitchen is well equipped. Great ocean view and hot tub!

    Such a wonderful spot to watch the northern lights, either from the jacuzzi or the upstairs reading room. Awesome hosts and an incredible, remote location.

Company information

We love hiking, golf, cycling and just exploring nature in any way possible. We play bridge and love to listen to good music. Sjöfn has background in arts and psychology and works as school master in the neighborhood and Jón has background in social sciences.

Property information

Beautiful nature, hot tub, very well equipped kitchen, large living room with 360° view, hiking, bird watching, beds are comfortable and we have black covers for windows (important in summer!).

Neighbourhood information

We are by the Arctic facing the ocean. In summer we have sunlight 24/7 for 2 weeks and in winter we do not see the sun for 3 months! We have no "light disturbance" from other farms, so we can enjoy the Northern lights 100% in winter - perhaps the best place in Iceland to experience the Aurora Borealis!
