This place was great. Quiet. Clean. Easy to use lights, fridge, etc. Dark at night. Great host checked in with us. Dog and cat went on a walk with us, but only were pet when we wanted to.
Remember to bring a flat sheet if you are used to that. We’d stay again!

A very fun stay in Southern Iceland!
The house was meticulously clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Our kids loved meeting the farm animals, especially their cats and horses. We had a wonderful stay at Klara's house.

Lara’s cottage is on a beautiful farm with sheep, horses, cats, dogs and chickens, all of whom we met and interacted with. Our kids’ highlight was feeding the lambs! Thank you, Harold!

We absolutely loved our stay at Klara's farm! The accommodations were perfect! We got to pet horses, dogs, cats, hold kittens and bottle feed baby sheep! The accommodations are clean and comfortable and extremely well stocked. We hope to return!

My kids keep saying their favorite part of Iceland was "owning a farm" - aka staying on Klara's farm! The guest house was perfectly set up for our family of 6, the hosts were incredibly friendly and offered to let my kids help with the animals (which they clearly LOVED - they even got to bottle feed a lamb!), and the location was perfect for our plan to explore both the city and the southern part of Iceland all the way over to Diamond Beach (cannot recommend highly enough!). Highly recommend and we're already dreaming of coming back!

This spot was perfect for our day trips, right in the middle of Hella and Selfoss we had plenty of spots to hop in for dinner when we were too tired from hiking and sightseeing to cook. This location was very well appointed and just the right side for our family tour! The weather wasn't cooperating for our little toddler to see the new lambs and horses but he had a blast puddle jumping! Thank you so much for the perfect spot and such a nice place!

Fabulous stay. Our hosts were friendly and helpful. The cottage was very clean and well organised. All we needed, for our 4 night stay, was there, which made it very easy for us to enjoy. Importantly, it was also very comfortable and easy access to the main road.

Klara’s cottage was impeccably clean and tidy. I loved that the animals were so friendly (outside!) and that Klara knocked to let us know that the Northern lights were very active! We had a little trouble with Apple Maps finding the location but after a little bit more review of the listing and the use of google maps, we arrived safe and sound!

We arrived late (after 9pm for sure) and the house was open for us. We met our host briefly (and the dog) but otherwise we were quickly making dinner and showering and we left early the next day. Everything was so clean and new. Kitchen very nice and stocked. Very nice place. I couldn’t quite figure out how to use the washer dryer combo and had to google that! If we were staying in one spot for several days, I would for sure choose here. We met the horses and that was just magical.

We spent 4 nights here. Although we barely saw them, the hosts were very kind. The home was very clean and comfortable. Perfect location! We would definitely stay here again. We are a family of 5, with 3 teenage boys. We fit comfortably in the bedrooms and pullout couch.

Perfect space for our family of six. Cozy and beautifully kept, feels brand new and had all the kitchen amenities we needed including coffee pot, filters, tea. And a friendly dog and cat to enjoy outdoors (not allowed in the house). We would stay here again.

Horse lovers dream
Such a great experience: as we drove up the 5 Icelandic ponies greeted us and my wife was instantly in heaven. Very new building is super clean, everything works perfectly and the location was easy to get to and convenient to our needs. As we learned is common this is a building on a farm and the hosts were 100 yards away: we never felt they invaded our privacy but they were perfectly friendly and ofte.n invited us to explore their farm, which my kids did frequently. Nice bathroom and kitchen and living space. Two private bedrooms , one with a queen bed and one with two individual beds. The couch in the living room was made as a fourth bed. There is a nice porch and deck and outdoor table as well, and a good combo washer and dryer, though these are the standard energy efficient models which coming from US take some recall on how to use. Loved the place and hope to return.

This was a great first stop on our Iceland trip for our family of four. Clean, comfortable and a great location for exploring the Westman Islands and South Coast. The hosts are so nice and the farm is beautiful!

We stayed here for the first three nights of our trip to Iceland, and the cottage and location were absolutely spectacular! Communication with the owner was very clear, and the kitchen was wonderfully appointed with spices, olive oil, cooking oil, coffee; and other food items. The owner also regularly invited us to feed the horses and lambs with him. We would love to visit again with our kids!

This was a lovely rental between Hella and Selfoss (closer to Hella), just off the ring road. It was immaculate and everything was new. It was decorated beautifully. It had everything we needed in the kitchen including a microwave, pots and pans, plates, etc. The owner has clearly given the place a lot of thought. The propery is situated on a farm, away from the main road. The owner had two adorable dogs, horses, and sheep, which we really enjoyed spending time with. So between the location, new everything, and friendly owner with super nice animals, I'd rate this an A plus!

Perfect Introduction to Iceland
This was our first visit to Iceland and we want to come back for more! Klara's Villa was the perfect base for our holiday in the South of Iceland. We enjoyed trips to Geysir & Gulfoss, Thingvellir, Heimaey (part of Vestmannaeyjar - Westman Islands), and Hveragerdi where we bathed in the hot springs. Thank you for having us in your lovely holiday house!

Loved Klara's cottage. Wish we had more time there. It's a great base camp to explore southern Iceland. Had everything we needed. Ring Road was 2-3 minutes away, but we felt like we were out in the middle of nowhere. It was quiet. Horses surprised us one evening when we returned... grazing not too far from the home. Kids loved it. Would highly recommend.

Country Stay
We were pleasantly surprised to be able to pet the horses, feed the chickens and collect a few eggs. Klara and her husband were very nice hosts and were available when we had a question. The location was near the Westman ferry dock and close to Hella, which has a grocery store. I would highly recommend this location and would consider staying again when we come back to Iceland.

The villa was beautiful, lots of space and cozy. It’s about 15 minutes from Hella and about an hour away from the golden circle attractions. Adorable pup and cat that greet you each day as well. The house had everything we needed- oven, stove, washer, dryer, microwave, and hair dryer. I highly recommend this rental!

Beautiful property & setting
The accomodation is fantastic, a modern property set on a lovely farm. We were two families (four adults and two toddlers) and the house was far more spacious than the photos appear. The house had everything you would need. Klara was very welcoming and took us all to see the animals which the children loved, they wouldnt stop talking about the horses.
I would definitely recommend staying here as a great self catering option and just to enjoy the peaceful surroundings. We wish we could have stayed longer!

This house was perfect for our first visit to Iceland and welcoming for three generations of our family. Its location along the south shore gave us a central spot to explore some of the beautiful Icelandic landscape, and the house was a warm respite during some cool and rainy weather. Klara was responsive during our inquiries, and the house is modern, well equipped, and very comfortable. Our 10-year-old granddaughter especially enjoyed feeding the young lambs and playing with the friendly dog and cat. The property is a good choice for families visiting Iceland.
