Quiet Cabin
My family of five stayed here in August and loved the clean, remote, and cozy cabin. It was nestled about 10 minutes off of 1 passing some cows and sheep to get to the location. About 15 minutes away was a kronan grocery store and gas. The kitchen at all we need to make a meal and we loved sleeping together in the bedroom it was very Sweet.

Simply perfect!
Thor has thought of everything with this cabin. It is so beautifully and comfortably appointed. Everything from the cozy and comfy beds to the outdoor grill. We enjoyed baking a cake in the oven and sitting on the beautiful deck watching the sunset colors over the mountain glaciers in the distance. The cabin is very comfortable for 4 and could easily hold a few more. Out in the country, away from the crowds - this is the perfect place to settle down and relax for a few days. Also the perfect launch point for an early trip to the Westmann Islands, just a 20 minute drive to the ferry.
