This was our favourite stay while in Iceland. The cabins were well stocked and quiet, the right distance from town to feel removed. We were able to cook basic meals and we loved having access to a hot tub and sauna. Wouldn’t change a thing. It was lovely!

We had such a lovely stay in this cottage. It’s so cozy and welcoming, the view is absolutely breathtaking, and the owner’s cat and dogs are so friendly, reminds us of our dog back at home. We’ve stayed at a lot of places in the world, and kalda is definitely one for the books! Only wish we could stay a bit longer

This was a beautiful little cottage/cabin! The owner took great care to make us so comfortable and welcome. She personally prepared breakfast for us and left it in the fridge all ready for us. This was our favorite place we stayed in our 10 days in Iceland!

Would love to go back!

We had a lovely relaxing couple of days and were made to feel so welcome! We loved all the thoughtful little touches and attention to detail in the lodge. On a clear night we were able to stargaze and see the northern lights from the hot tub and our porch! Wish we could have stayed longer!

What more can be said about Kalda Lyngholt Holiday Homes that already hasn’t been said?! This was hands down the best accommodations in our weeklong stay in Iceland! Ásdís was an extremely warm host and accommodated us with the sauna, jacuzzi and even did our laundry! Did I mention the homemade biscuits and yougurts?! The cottages are very clean and beautifully decorated and had a very warm and inviting character. Plus, the view is absolutely amazing! Thank you Ásdís for an amazing experience...we will definitely be back! -Jason New Jersey, USA

This was my favorite stop on our 10 day Ring road tour. The host, the cabin and the property are all wonderful. Nestled in the woods with lots of hiking trails nearby, including the one to Dettifoss. Sauna and hot tub were private and welcome after several long days on the road. While there, I already started to plan when to come back and spend more time at that cottage!

Great place

This was by far the best place we stayed on our tour of Iceland. The hostess was very helpful and the little chalet perfect with everything we needed there’s even a waterfall in the grounds. We also had a very sunny stay, sunbathing on the deck in the early evening.

Cute little cottage

Kalda Lyngholt was an amazing place to stay. The cottage was really cute with alot of nice personal touches and it had everything that you would require. There were 3 of us each with a large luggage so it did feel abit small at times. But this was just a small issue as the positives far outweighed the negatives and I wouldn't hesitate to stay with them again when I'm back in the area.

Lovely little spot. Perfect base for Hengifoss

Our stay at Kalda was just what we needed. After a long couple of days driving the ring road it was so nice to arrive at such a relaxing, cosy place and have such a warm welcome. The cabin was really well equipped with all cooking facilities and nice furniture and we were able to reserve a private time slot for the hot tub and sauna which has incredible views over the valley and lake, with plenty of snow to make us appreciate the warmth. We hiked Hengifoss the next mornjng which is a short drive around the scenic lake from the cabin. The town is also nearby Wish we could have stayed longer than a night. Highly recommended
