There were five people in our group (including kids aged 9 and 7). It’s fairly secluded, but also about 10 mins to a grocery store, which really helped us control our food budget.The house was very clean, with all the amenities we needed for our stay. The washer and dryer worked very well and the beds were comfortable. The kids really enjoyed exploring the various flowers and trees located around the property. There is access to some of the traditional streaming platforms and they even have DVDs with entertainment for kids and adults alike.

There was no coffee so make sure to bring your own. We also lost all hot water after two showers and didn't get any back for 36 hours. That was rather unfortunate and uncomfortable as some of us ended up taking cold showers until the problem was resolved. ##### Lesli H.

We had such a delightful stay in this adorable cottage! ~ Erla was a wonderful host, even meeting us when we arrived and checking in on us via e-mail during our stay. ~ The location was perfect for seeing the Northern Lights (which we saw twice during our week there) - and for accessing all the major sights in West Iceland. ~ The cottage, itself, was simply adorable! The beds were very comfortable - and the living room, kitchen, and dining area provided just the right space we needed to relax and make ourselves "at home." ~ We also loved the many artistic touches throughout the house, giving it an artsy-feel. ~ The cottage is well-insulated and very soundly-built, which is ideal for those strong Icelandic winds! ~ Thank you, Erla, for a delightful and magical experience! We truly enjoyed our winter stay in your lovely cabin - and hope to return soon for a summer visit! ##### Tina G. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jiwon Mar 27, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication This place was amazing. Was a great place to stay while we wanted to explore the west coast while also trying to make it back to Reykjavik on our last day. The host was extremely communicative and timely with her responses. Easy to access and find - although it’s worth trying to find the location before it gets completely dark since it’s off in a remote area without lamp posts. Note: Google maps will put the pin in the wrong location so following the host’s specific instructions is the way to go. The property was well equipped with kitchen and living essentials. It was cozy, well decorated, and comfortable. We loved the hot tub. We loved how it felt like we were in our own paradise. It felt like there was a lot of privacy as well. No fuss check in and check out process too. We came to Iceland purposely in March to experience the northern lights. This property is situated in a remote area where IF there’s aurora borealis activity AND good visibility, there’s no reason why you can’t see it. Sure enough we did the first night we checked in. We had panoramic views due to the nature of the cottage’s architecture where it’s easy to walk around the property. We had a great time - thank you! ##### Jiwon Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laurel A.

Erla was quick to the rescue meeting us in town, and guiding us there. The lovely 3-bedroom home had everything my family (3 kids) needed. The washing machine as a bonus, and the clothesline on the deck made everything smell fresh! Highly recommend. ##### Jennifer B.

Jun 29, 2017 #### What a great place to stay!!! We all loved this house and would go back again anytime. It had everything that we could have possibly needed for our stay but unfortunately for us it was only 2 days. Erla Einarsdóttir and HomeAway could not have been any easier to work with. Thanks again. ##### Joe C.

We found it very clean and just as it was described in the listing. Erla was delightful and very helpful both before we travelled as well as when we arrived. We considered this to be the best of any of our accommodations while on our vacation in Iceland. Our family of 5 adults had plenty of room and we would definitely recommend it to anyone considering staying in this area of Iceland. We had a.great evening watching the Notthern Lights directly over the cottage ##### Ward T.

We (4 girls) stayed for 2 nights in order to explore the Snaefellsnes peninsula and the location was perfect! It is about an hour south of the peninsula, 10 minutes north of Bogarnes, and an hour or so north of Reykjavik. The house is extremely easy to find and on top of a mountain surrounded by several other summer homes although we did not see anyone around. The best part are the insanely beautiful mountain views outside the kitchen Windows. You feel like you are in the cozier cabin in the middle of nowhere surrounded by mountains. The house, beds, and linens were all very clean. It was the perfect place for us and can fit up to 6-7 comfortably. Beds were very comfy (best out of all 3 places I stayed in all of Iceland). Rooms spacious. The hot tub looked great with great views although we did not get a chance to use it. Overall it was a fantastic stay and I would stay here again 100% and recommend it to anyone looking for a central location on the western side of Iceland! ##### solveig Bry ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hótel Kría](https://www.expedia.ca/Vik-I-Myrdal-Hotels-Hotel-Kria.h22847314.Hotel-Information) > > [Blue Mountain Apartments by Heimaleiga](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Blue-Mountain-Apartments.h10632146.Hotel-Information) > > [Hótel Dyrhólaey](https://www.expedia.ca/Vik-I-Myrdal-Hotels-Hotel-Dyrholaey.h21081951.Hotel-Information) > > [The Greenhouse Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Hveragerdi-Hotels-The-Greenhouse-Hotel.h63857923.Hotel-Information) > > [Reykjavik Natura - Berjaya Iceland Hotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Icelandair-Hotel-Reykjavik-Natura.h12750.Hotel-Information) > > [Black Beach Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Vik-I-Myrdal-Hotels-Black-Beach-Suites.h21959953.Hotel-Information) > > [Fosshotel Vatnajokull](https://www.expedia.ca/Hofn-Hotels-Fosshotel-Vatnajokull.h7998536.Hotel-Information) > > [Aurora Lodge Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Rangaring-Eystra-Hotels-Aurora-Lodge-Hotel.h23696101.Hotel-Information) > > [Fosshotel Reykholt](https://www.expedia.ca/Borgarnes-Hotels-Fosshotel-Reykholt.h1158353.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Mexico](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Mexico-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d117-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Hotel Smyrlabjorg](https://www.expedia.ca/Hofn-Hotels-Hotel-Smyrlabjorg.h27052423.Hotel-Information) > > [Höfn - Berjaya Iceland Hotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Hofn-Hotels-Hotel-Edda-Hofn.h6416443.Hotel-Information) > > [The Retreat at Blue Lagoon Iceland](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-The-Retreat-At-Blue-Lagoon-Iceland.h33987034.Hotel-Information) > > [ION Adventure Hotel, Nesjavellir, a Member of Design Hotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Selfoss-Hotels-ION-Adventure-Hotel.h8393015.Hotel-Information) > > [Eleven Deplar Farm](https://www.expedia.ca/Skagafjorour-Hotels-Eleven-Experience-Deplar-Farm.h35065041.Hotel-Information) > > [Fosshotel Núpar](https://www.expedia.ca/Kalfafell-Hotels-Fosshotel-Nupar.h7999374.Hotel-Information) > > [The Barn - Hostel](https://www.expedia.ca/Vik-I-Myrdal-Hotels-The-Barn.h32596142.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Vík í Mýrdal](https://www.expedia.ca/Vik-I-Myrdal-Hotels-Hotel-Vik.h35767873.Hotel-Information) > > [Konvin Hotel by Reykjavik Keflavik Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-BB-Hotel-By-Keflavik-Airport.h3474914.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Höfn](https://www.expedia.ca/Hofn-Hotels-Hotel-Hofn.h19291791.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Calgary](https://www.expedia.ca/Calgary-Hotels.d178245.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Fosshotel Glacier Lagoon](https://www.expedia.ca/Fagurholsmyri-Hotels-Fosshotel-Glacier-Lagoon.h12794262.Hotel-Information) > > [Northern Light Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Northern-Light-Inn.h12320638.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Delhi (DEL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/del/toronto-to-delhi) > > [Flights from Lincoln (YFC) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yfc/yyz/fredericton-to-toronto) > > [Air Canada](https://www.expedia.ca/Air-Canada-Flights.cAC.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Air India](https://www.expedia.ca/Air-India-Flights.cAI.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Sydney (SYD)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/syd/edmonton-to-sydney) > > [Flights from Buffalo (BUF) to Orlando (MCO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/buf/mco/buffalo-to-orlando)
