Nice location and cozy cottage, but sleeping arrangements were not ideal for a family. Two rooms with double lower bunk and single upper bunk. Had expected two rooms with double beds and a bunk bed in another area. Also, sofa had a pair of underwear under the cushions from previous guest

The cottages were outdated and strongly recommend at least upgrading beds/mattresses and getting screens in windows. we roasted in the room because we were advised not to open window due to the bugs. Would have been a bit more manageable if we could have opened windows. Staff was nice, check in was easy. Did not eat the breakfast but didn’t look impressive when checking out! 1 of the 3 hot tubs were open but due to bugs, we opted not to use.

Pleasant stay in Iceland

We enjoyed our stay here. It was centrally located for the various sites we wanted to see during our brief stopover in Iceland. The cabins were charming. We would have liked to have had blackout curtains in the living room and not just the bedroom, but everything was clean and comfortable. The workers were friendly; we'd recommend staying here.

Fantastic place to stay.

A fantastic place to stay, and a brilliant base for the sights of south Iceland. Friendly staff and the room itself had everything you could need for the price, plus a little bit more. Had to use the spare duvet as a pillow, as I like a firm pillow, but that's more personal preference.

Comfortable cottage in the Golden Circle

We stayed there two nights during road trip around Iceland. We were there in the first week of February, so very off season. The attached restaurant was closed for the season, but we knew that going in. Our room was nicely heated and the hot tub was filled and ready to go, which was nice. The cottage was comfortable with enough room for four adults and a decently equipped kitchen. It is located in the Golden Circle so it was easy to get to all the sites we wanted to see in the area. We would definitely stay there again

Comfortable cottage

We spent 3 nights at this cottage for exploring parts of the Golden Circle. The cottage was a perfect home away from home. It had the necessary amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The dining and living room areas were a decent size for a family of 4-6 people. The bunk bed and pillows weren’t the most comfortable. There were no housekeeping as this is a stand alone cottage which we were fine with. The main restaurant was closed during our stay. The location was nice as it was off the main highway yet there were plenty of privacy. The hot tub was the cherry on top! Overall, I would recommend this place.
