Wished we had read the directions for the hot tub before it had gotten too late for us. We were able to enjoy the northern lights from just outside the back door. This location would be perfect for a small group of families.

When travelling through on the ring road, just stay here. Rooms are nice, and the shared bathrooms well kept. Very nice kitchen, well stocked for breakfast! Rural setting with Icelandic horses nearby.

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!
