Birthday getaway
The house was a good size for the 5 of us, kitchen/ dining area was a lovely space to hang out at. However, there was no-where (besides someone's bedroom) to hang out and watch a movie together, although the blueprint of the second floor shows a movie room type space, but in reality there are multiple beds in there and a small couch. The house really needed a thorough clean, fixing of blinds, pocket doors and shower doors, as only one person could shower at a time with privacy although the house advertises as having 2 showers. There was also no-where to hang/ store clothes in the main bedroom, which meant living out of the suitcase for the week. The wardrobe was filled top to bottom with spare linen. If anyone books the house with a baby, please note there is no bathtub, although a cot is provided.

Perfect home base!
We stayed here six nights while exploring Iceland in March. It was just the four of us, so we could have gone with a smaller place, but this house was just perfect for us. We loved the cozy living room in the evenings and the kitchen had everything we needed to have breakfast and a few dinners at home. The beds were comfortable and we LOVED that the floors were so warm. We made use of the hot tub most evenings. Thor was great to communicate with and the perfect host. Would love to come back again!

Awesome place, just a little complicated to operate
The house is beautiful and just as described. The owner was very communicative and overall it was a great experience. The only gripe I have is with the hot tub. You have to heat it up with a hose that runs hour water from a sink in a nearby shed. In cold weather, this doesn't bring in enough hot water to actually heat it. The hot tub was the main reason we rented the house, so this was disappointing, but the rest of the house is beautiful, the location was great, and the sauna was fantastic. If they can figure out the hot tub, I'd stay again. If that's not important to you, or having a sauna use good enough, definitely stay here.

Fantastic Stay
The owners are so helpful and responded to any queries before and during the stay very promptly. The property is beautiful, clean and made a wonderful base to enjoy the beauty of Iceland for my wife's 50th birthday.

Very well comfortable home with a great location near the golden circle
The home has everything you need to easily cook meals in. The beds were very comfortable. We loved the living room with large windows and a fireplace. Great location for visiting the golden circle and an easy day trip to Vik. Perfect way to relax after busy days hiking. When we return we will definitely stay at this home again.

Week long stay in Nov 2023
Nine of stayed here for 8 nights and it was awesome. Nine people fit perfectly; could have had another teen or small children. We had an amazing time and felt very comfortable. We were fortunate enough to see the Northern Lights one night!! The home had everything we needed in terms of the kitchen being stocked, towels, bedding, etc. I would highly recommend. We also didn't realize the great proximity to so many sights so we were pleasantly surprised how close things were. We loved going into Selfoss to shop and eat on a few occasions.

Great Location for day trips
Very comfortable for our family. Thorsteinn was a great host, very responsive and answered all of the quesions we had. The house is perfect for day trips along the south. 45 min to Reykavik, 1 hour to Blue Lagoon, 2 hours to Vik and the Black Sand Beach. (Waterfalls along the way) Saw the Northern Lights on most clear nights, simply amazing. Selfoss is about a 15 minute ride where you can get everything you need. Can't recommend Iceland or this property enough!

Nice accommodating house - convenient to many attractions
It is a very nice property- a little attention to a few details might be in order soon - overall a good place for a larger group - we would stay there again!

Great Golden Circle spot for viewing Northern Lights
We enjoyed the large, clean, modern, space away from the city lights. Our party of nine adults fit well with the size of the property. We stayed four nights, taking advantage of the location for daytrips toward Vik, to the Westman Islands, and Geysir/Gulfoss/Secret Lagoon. Being close to Selfoss provided us with restaurant options. Host Thorsteinn made checkin and checkout easy. He also quickly replied to our questions. We would happily stay again with a similar group.
