Five of us were so comfortable in this lovely cottage.  There was everything we needed.  Parking was right at the door.  The setting was so beautiful.  Highly recommend. We came here after arriving at the airport in the morning.  It was the perfect diatance for the start of the ring road. 

Gorgeous place

The previous reviews nail all the shortcomeings pretty well. But none of it mattered to us. After a long day hiking the glacier, this chjarming cottage was perfect. Yes, the rooms are cramped. But it didn't matter. We were there to sleep. We used the hot tub, which definitely needs you to add cold water when filling. The family dog adopted us for our stay. The hike behid the cottage is a trat, and if you are adventurous, you will find the waterfall back there too! Highly recommended with a large group.

Idyllic spot for abg group

The owner stays on the farm and has invited us to view the feeding in the morning but we were too tired after a long road trip from the diamond beach the day before. Cozy and sufficient for a family of 7. Did not try the hot tub as it was too cold that night. Friendly owner.

A good night sleep

We loved this private cottage on a family dairy farm, after a long day of touring the Golden Circle.  The location was outstanding -- nestled at the mouth of a gorge where you could hike across a bridge and up a small climb (maybe 10 minutes) for glorious views of the ocean, the Westman Islands, and surrounding mountains.  The private hot tub was a wonderful treat, and the owner was very responsive to emails -- offered to fill the tub for us so it would be warm when we arrived, and gave my husband tips on where to go running in the morning.

The beds were comfortable but basic -- the double bed is wedged against the wall so if you share, one person has to climb over the other to get out, and the bunk room has a double bed below and a single above.  We had a small miscommunication in that we were traveling with our teen children (boy and girl), but only the bottom (double) bed of the bunk was made up and there were no sheets in the house to make another bed ourselves.  We asked the host for sheets and she gave us a single flat sheet.  My daughter crashed in the loft with the sheet, the mattresses on the floor, and a blanket she'd brought, and was perfectly happy to have her own room, but if you want something different be sure to specify how many beds need to be made up for your arrival.  This was a very minor issue that ended up being no problem because of my daughter's flexibility, but if you're traveling with adults just let them know by email what you want.  Overall, we really recommend this place.

Charming hideaway

We very much enjoyed our stay.

The hostess was really friendly! The cottage was located in a farm with cowshed so we went to her in the morning and wondering if we could buy some fresh milk. She invited us to her house and gave us cups of milk and also pie to try for free. We were told that the cottages was built by her father who lives in another house in this farm. Both of her dogs are really friendly, especially the older one who was always asking as to pet him. We were also told that the farm next door belongs to her brother and they do have horses for ride. We did end up going there and had lots of fun there too.

The cottage itself is very cool looking and have space for at least 6 people. The kitchen was fulled equipped so we did cook our own dinner. It was raining out side so we didn't end up using the hot tub but there was a instruction in the cottage clearly stating how to use it. They are also doing milking in the morning from around 6:30 to 8 and open for visit, we went a bit late but it was still a very cool experience for us.

There was also a small white church with red roof on site, like the ones you could always see in the picture. Very interesting to look at and good for pictures.

Couple things that made me reduce 1 star from the review:

- The shower water temperature is very unstable, It would move from "very hot" to "freezing cold" in a 10 sec period and never stays there no matter how you adjust it, which made it very hard to take a good shower.

- The twin bed in one of rooms on the first floor was very soft with no back support at all. Two of my friends chose to sleep on the floor of the attic in stead. I chose not to, but my back did hurts after one night sleep.
