Cozy cottage surrounded by nice nature. You have almost everything you need in this cottage. It's just like a studio apartment. Well-equipped kitchen with a small fridge, 2 elements ceramic cooktop, microwave, toaster, coffee machine, and all the kitchenware that's needed. You can use all the coffee and tea you need.

Everything worked out perfectly, from the reservation, to directions, to the owner’s tips as to what to see and do nearby, and our three-night stay. The waterfall a walking distance from the cottage is wonderful. The cottage has a great, spacious design, and is well appointed—it had all the amenities we needed. Our only regret was that we didn’t book a fourth night!

This cottage was spotlessly clean and very well kitted out. It was so quiet, right off the beaten path but along a decent tarmac and gravel road from the circular highway 1 near Hella. The only disappointment was that Hekla (volcano) didnt erupt for me (I am a geologist on geoloday!) but it was fascinating to walk along the road and see where the lava flows from 10 years ago ran across the road and have just been bulldozed out of the way to allow cars through! The landscape varies from rough lava flows to smooth basalt pavements to lush glacial outwash streams to sparkling rivers, with Hekla looking resplendent in her snow-capped peak overlooking the scene. We loved it and will definitely stay again when (not if) we return to Iceland. Also, Elvar, the owner, was very helpful (by email - answering very promptly) and also has a good sense of humour! Thanks Elvar for a lovely stay! Well be back for longer next time!
