Super nice cabin in a great area, convenient to a lot of great sights. Only a few minutes outside of Egilsstaðir, but feels like you’re in the middle of nowhere.

This was a true highlight. Not fancy but clean, cozy, and completely everything you need for a quiet night. Read a book on the porch and watched the light change, made a little dinner, had a great sleep, etc. just lovely.

Super cute cedar cabins. Well laid out with little kitchenette. The bathroom is nice as well. Love how the house was integrated into the surrounds of the trees and the farmland around the area with a little stream in back of the cabin. The supermarket is about 20 minute drive back into town and nice areas to explore too Loved every moment and would recommend others to come and experience e the friendly hospitality of the host and the horses 🐎 👍

We loved our cabins (traveling with another couple). The whole set up is attractive and comfortable and we wanted to stay for longer than the two nights we were there. The staff were lovely and helpful.

We loved our little cabin at Stora Sandfell! The cabins are nextled amongst fir trees, so felt very private. The kitchenette had everything we needed. The bathroom was larger than expected. This was an excellent location for us as it was located within a 2 hour radius of several sites we wanted to see. The cabin even had a little porch. We very much enjoyed our stay here.

Great stay
The cottages were great. Very quiet as your in your own little space. Stayed in six different places in Iceland and it was definitely the most peaceful. Only stayed one night, wish we had stayed another. Cute front porch to relax on. Shower reminded me of a cruise ship, tight but did the job. A couple bugs and spiders but kinda expected out in country, not scary or dangerous, little bitty guys. Dining table inside made for good luggage rack. The host was super sweet, friendly woman. Highly recommend staying here, we enjoyed our short visit.

It’s a lovely wood chalet house in the nature. Sleeping in the farm, river is flowing next to you and seeing the waterfalls and beautiful horses. Chalet has a decently equipped kitchen for daily needs. Owner and team are very friendly and helpful. Strongly recommended to stay.

Nice and peaceful. Very relaxing. While it said there was no front desk, we were greeted upon our arrival. And bring something to grill as they have gas grills to cook out.
