Hrafn was an excellent host.
His responses were quick. He was very accommodating.
The cottage is perfect. Comfy beds, pillows and sofa. We love the kitchen. It is very well stocked.
The magic was the hot tub amd sauna, which were so relaxing.
We listened to the birds and watched them with delight.
We would highly recommend this cottage and we would definitely stay here again.
Great location and host ( Hrafn ). Lodge was very comfortable, clean and warm. Nice outlook with no one behind the property when sitting in the hot tub or sauna. Cooking and washing facilities were also great with induction hob, microwave, oven, laundry room etc. Good big dining table that could sit 10 people for dinner. The beds were all comfortable and we had very good WiFi. Large wall mounted TV with Netflix etc. This location is quite central for the golden circle tourist locations and is close enough to the local town of Selfoss to get some food shopping and fuel for the hire car.
This newly constructed home was a perfect location and lay out for our two families vacationing. Everything was clean and modern. The kitchen was equipped with the necessary essentials for cooking with plenty of dinner plates, glasses and appliances. The two private entrance rooms with their own bathrooms were great for our family. Host supplied toilet paper and paper.The location was right off of the Golden Circle which was great. It also made for a very central location for us to visit Reykjavík, and the southern peninsula as well.We enjoyed the trampoline, relaxing at night to the nice view, the sauna and the hot tub.The host was quick to respond to any questions we had. They would definitely recommend this home to anyone visiting the area. He helped to visit again one day.
