We loved it here! Right off of the Ring Road. Host was very easy to communicate with. Beautiful scenery and horses everywhere. Super quiet and peaceful. Comfortable beds. Nice kitchen for cooking. Host left food for breakfast so there were plenty of snacks available. Washer but no dryer. Definitely visit Reykjafoss if you stay here which is a gorgeous waterfall with a natural hot spring tub (about 12 min from the property in Varmahlio).

Simply Fabulous!
It was our favourite stay during the entire 10 day Icelandic family roadtrip! Super comfortable and the location is just stunning! We all enjoyed the hot tub and the owner generously stacked the fridge for breakfast. It truly felt like home away from home! The kids have already asked if we could go back and stay for longer! We all loved it!

This is a great little spot. What set it apart for us was the kindness of our host. My son forgot his boots in the shoe bench and our amazing host found them a ride to Reykjavik, so they were available to us before our flight home. Super, super grateful! The refrigerator stocked with wonderful items for breakfast (including eggs, yogurt, milk and dries cereals). The hot tub is nice, there is a great view of the mountains and horses from it. It was lovely to wake up to horses in the fields. We had a family room with a double and a bunk. Our restroom was shared with 2 other rooms in our suite. Towels were provided. Fabulous experience. Thank you!

We had a great stay here in June 2022! Everything was clean and easy to find. There were also horses and a very lovable dog on the property. The fridge was incredibly well stocked with eggs, juices, yogurt, fruit, milk, meats and cheeses etc. We had such a wonderful and filling breakfast, so thank you for that!!! The only bummer was that the hot tub was the type that has to be filled and you had to wait for it to warm up, which after an hour we kind of gave up on. Such a bummer bc we were looking forward to the hot tub!
