We had a great stay even though the floor hadn't been swept at all. I found a broom and swept it. When getting ready to leave (after two nights) looked under the bed and hadn't been swept there either.
But, on the positive side - nice place to stay - the Northern Lights were great, amenities (fridge, washer and dryer and location) were great.
The beds in Iceland aren't the normal US twin, a little skinnier, but we got used to that. Know that they in Iceland they just give you a duvet, no top sheet. Not a big deal (we brought one), but weird.
Shower worked great (mat would have been nice) and again the location and northern lights were fabulous.

Excellent location, cosy home and well equipped, only challenge was the sat nav routing us via a water crossing to get to the property.

We had a great experience at this beautiful home. The owner’s property description is spot on - the house had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay (including a high chair and crib for our 9 month old). Great location for exploring Iceland!

Gezellige woning met prachtig uitzicht
Vier vrouwen en ieder een eigen kamer.
Helaas geen foto van de 4e kamer. Had wel fijn geweest aangezien deze op zolder is. Wel prima geslapen. Bij plotselinge uitval van elektriciteit en water de eigenaresse gebeld en zij was er binnen 10 min. en alles (incl. loodgieter) was binnen een half uur verholpen. Top!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this cabin outside of Borgarnes. The home was comfortable for our family. The kids loved the loft, and we loved hanging out in the living room and the deck looking at the stunning landscape. The kitchen had the basic things needed, and there is a grill available. It was a great place to stay while exploring the west coast.

Views for days
We loved staying here. The property was so cute and comfortable. The view was incredible. It was easy to explore the area, there was so much to do and see. The grocery was easy to get to and we ended up cooking every night because we were so relaxed at the cabin.

We enjoyed your home so much! We had hiked Glymur in the afternoon and were so thankful for this amazing place to end our day. Everything was clean and ready for us. Thankful for the washer & dryer half way through our trip. Well equipped kitchen allowed us to make a great family dinner. Appreciated how close it was to Borgarnes and the mountains are spectacular!

A great stay in the middle of the landscape.
This was a fantastic place at a perfect spot as starting point for different activities, like bathing, hiking, riding and excursions! Close to Borganes, a fully "equipped" small town with a splendid bath, cafés, shops and restaurants.
The house was spacious with good facilities, fresh and clean. Ony thing missing to become perfect was the possibility to make laundry and to hang wet things (like swimming clothes and towels to dry).
Placed in the middle of nature, fantastic views over the open land, water and mountains.
I can to 100% reccomend this stay.

Excellent Property
Very high standard, magnificent views, great location for visiting places.
The property is very well heated - important when you visit out of the summer season!
Great decked area, where you can sit, in the sun, looking out over the snow-capped mountains (did that even when air temperature was below freezing). Shops in Borgarnes only about 5 minutes drive down main road. Good location to travel out from around West Iceland, e.g. around the Snaefells Peninsula. Access to property via a short gravel roadway, from main route north ( highway 1) from Borgarnes, so access good even with a lot of snow about.
Layout of property very good, spacious and light, with large windows for views. Upstairs bedroom accessed by steep, but safe stairway, and although large in floor area, limited headroom, but not really a problem as a bedroom and again great views.
