Beutiful house with breath taking views Room was small, and had a off putting smell, fake flowers or prefume with poor ventilation. Showers had very hot water. Would stay there again but would choose a bigger room

We had a great stay. We booked one night to be able to do an ice cave tour. Great location! My son enjoyed hiking to an old barn and waterfall. This place was super clean and the linens smelled nice and appeared to be freshly laundered. The cute little grass roof houses is nice and you can even go inside them.

Lovely location in the middle of no where, with their own small waterfall. Quiet, clean. No problem sharing the bathroom with other guests. Great facilities - vacuum/dryer type thing for wet shoes, good amenities in the kitchen. Definitely recommend for a quiet stay in the country.

Little gem

Out of expectation! The place is very clean and tidy. The kitchen is well equipped. The room is cozy. If you stay here, spend some time walking around the place, it is tranquil and lovely.

This stay was a highlight of our trip. When you turn off route 1, you have to drive 5km over a dirt road, through an absolutely beautiful moss covered lava field. As the dirt road nears the cliffs, I recommend that you stop the car and get out to experience the absolute solitude and stark beauty of this location. You are surrounded by untrammeled lava field and cliffs and waterfalls and nothing but a few water birds. You can’t hear or see route 1, nor do you see any guest house. As you turn to the left, you see the beautiful property set against another cliff. The room was large, modern, warm and clean. The place is newly renovated. The hosts left us some home made waffles for a nice surprise. As dinner was cooking on the outdoor grill, we walked to an amazing private waterfall. The host also pointed out their own private canyon and hill with trails. We could not wait to get up early the next morning to go hiking behind the house to see some amazing views. This is an experience of a lifetime.

This place exceeded my expectations for cleanliness. I am overly picky about where I stay and this stay was one of the few times I have been pleasantly pleased and satisfied. I did not realize when booking how far it was off the main road and this made me nervous as we were arriving but it ended up being a lovely surprise because of the beautiful property we got to enjoy, including the drive back to the house. The host is thoughtful in preparing for your arrival with the waffles and our family loved the bedside lamps with wireless charging and usb ports as we didn’t have to use our adapters for charging. I highly recommend this stay.

Clean and spacious accommodation.

Comfortable, spacious and clean accommodation but could be improved with a few minor changes. For example, the kettle provided was very small for an apartment sleeping 5 and there was only one mirror in the property. Also inadequate provision for drying towels and no instructions provided for the disposal of rubbish and recycling.

Farm house converted into guest-house which has a waterfall / creek in their backyard - fantastic view ! Living room was spacious. Fully equipted kitchen with stovetop, oven, freezer/ refrigerator and new pots and utensils. Do the grocery and wine shopping in town and go to this guest house, as we did, because store , restaurant are far away. Owners were super kind and their fluffy waffles were much better than bakery-bought. Their TV is installed with Netflix where you can put in your ID. Three of us stayed here two nights and were very happy there.

Très bel endroit, facilement accessible malgré une route graveleuse, qui permet de découvrir un site plein de magie. La cuisine commune est très bien équipée, les instructions concernant le comportement à avoir sont claires, tri des déchets est bien organisé. Les gaufres offertes sont délicieuses. Seul bémol: aucun contact avec les propriétaires. Pascale

Le logement est très bien, il y a tout ce qu’il faut pour cuisiner. L’endroit est très joli. Si je dois ajouter un petit bémol, il s’agirait de la qualité du matelas du canapé lit, un peu raide. Mais ça convient pour une nuit.
