Cosy small summer houses

Cosy small summer houses at a farm. The houses have everything you need, small kitchen nice bathroom with a shower and a nice sofa (sleeping sofa) and a bedroom with comfy beds. I could picture spending some quality time there and just connect to nature and enjoy the moment. The atmosphere inside these houses is nice and calming. Beautiful location and lovely people who run the place.

Wow! The best experience in Iceland!

Everything you expect from a pastoral stay in Iceland. Super clean, super cute a warm cottage with all facilities in it. Unbelievable view, huge land around, country atmosphere. Very friendly owner (we had some special requests and we arrived late, he was super professional, flexible and kind). Try to order the cottage that is in front of the land.

We enjoyed our morning, walking around with the cutest most social dog that showed us around (and only because we wanted to. Otherwise, he’s not disturbing at all).
You can also see some ships around but not reach them.

Out of this world!

We had a last minute change of plans for vacation and were thankfully able to book a cottage of Airbnb. Wonderful cottage with absolutely beautiful farm and land…along with pups that are more than willing to play fetch.

Minimal contact with host but none needed. They sent check-in info immediately after we made reservation and book in the cabin provided all history/information you would need about the land, hiking trails, restaurants, etc.

Lovely stay!

After a harrowing trip through a 29 mph rainstorm, it was wonderful to find such a nice cabin awaiting us for the night. Clean sheets, comfy bed and hot shower were the order of the day. The cabin was comfy…but could have benefited from a few more knives, a better wine opener, can opener, etc but was fine for the night.

Beautiful little cottage

Beautiful little cottage in the middle of nowhere. This place is 13 km from the Djupivogur town and is surrounded by hills and lagoon. There are 6 cottages on the property all facing North East. Perfect to view Northern Lights from the comfort of the room. We stayed in the one bedroom unit with kitchen, dining room and living room. The Kitchen is well equipped with dishes, microwave, toaster and fridge. Bring your own food.

Check-in is easy even if you arrive late.
