I wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy sleeping in but the land was calling to us. Terrific house manual sent ahead of booked stay takes all the guess work out of using the property. There are adjacent properties but separated by heavy vegetation. We slept very comfortably. I could see a small family enjoying this space too.

The home was comfortable and there was plenty to do in the yard and area. I was able to do some trail running around the cottage and by the beautiful river. Our favorite part within driving distance was the Snæfellsness peninsula! Robert was great in helping us during our stay. I would recommend this place. Thank you! ##### A.J. R.

The kitchen was well stocked, and we used the grill both nights - it was great. The hot tub is well kept and out of the wind. The beds were smaller than we expected, and we did not care for the pillows at all, they were too flat. Be careful with the front steps - they are very small and slanted. We appreciated the extra towels and the comfortable couch with tv setup. We recieved a lot of really helpful information from our hosts for things to do in the area. Thank you! ##### Courtney L. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Steven W. Jul 29, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy cottage This property was just as pictured, and the birch forest has grown quite a bit since the photos were taken. Mountain views, birds and the sound of the wind through the trees were all very peaceful. If you are driving a small car you may be surprised that the road to reach the cottage is unpaved and a bit Rocky. It is approximately 5 km from a paved road but no problem at all if a small car drives slowly. Our family had a lovely time and enjoyed seeing a mink exploring it's way through the wildflowers. Delightful! ##### Steven W. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Erin S. Jun 21, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### So cozy…the perfect place for weary travelers We stayed here for two nights during our travels to the west part of Iceland. This was our base for our day trip to the snaefellsnes peninsula. Arrival was smooth, the cottage was immaculate, and the beds and furniture were all so comfortable for our family of four. The kitchen was well outfitted and we even cooked a quick meal there on our second night. The cooking basics were there (seasonings, oil, etc). We used the hot tub one night, which was lovely after a long day of travel. Directions to the cabin were very clear and specific, but I am still glad it was light out when we arrived (we were there during June). Might have been harder to find in the dark. Hosts were lovely and I appreciate them sharing their home with us while we were traveling. I highly recommend this spot! ##### Erin S. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Justine F. Aug 14, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### It was nice, but so small Pluses Clean, great hot tub, grill, washer with fast spin for drying clothes. Great views of the sunset. Feels safe and secure. Nice check-in directions. Bedrooms super small, but the beds were comfortable. We stayed at this location as a family of 4 adults - super small - would be fine for an adult couple with children. The loft had a very low ceiling. Even on knees, ceiling height not adequate at peak for headroom. Ok for only for sleeping - except for noise (open) and light as living room had blinds missing and no black-out curtains in the rental. Bring eye masks if light wakes you up. We got a flat - road coming in - it is long and very bumpy. Overall OK stay ##### Justine F. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Liza-Kathrin L., Würselen Dec 10, 2018 #### It was a very clean, cosy house with nothing missing. We immediately felt at home and enjoyed it. We have been as a couple (25 & 27 years old) 1 week in the house. We were there at the beginning of December and were really lucky with the weather. They found the house well and there was nothing missing. The heating worked well, the couch was very comfortable and the highlight was of course the Jacuzzi, which we used every evening. The bed was super comfortable and the house is perfect for 2 people of this size. In the village Borgarnes there is a super bakery, a delicious pizzeria and a nice restaurant. Even when we once had a problem, the landlords were immediately reachable by phone and took care of everything. Apart from that everything went off without a hitch! We will gladly come back!!! ##### Liza-Kathrin L. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Cynthia R. Jul 18, 2018 #### it worked Somehow we didn't fully read everything. The bedrooms are very small. We thought we had a queen bed, but it ended up being a double (we have a king bed at home so this was a struggle). The closet space was very limited. The showering situation had to be very organized and quick as the hot water runs out very quickly. The place was cute, and the owners are very nice. It was just hard with 4 people. The hot tub was good and the bbq grill came in handy once I called the owner for instructions. There were only 2 TV stations (we ended up playing cards most nights). We enjoyed Bargarnes and Iceland in general. ##### Cynthia R.
