Wat een ontzettend leuk vakantiehuis. Een perfecte ligging op een mooie locatie en het mooie uitzicht voor de deur. Het huis had alles wat je nodig hebt inclusief een hottub en bbq. Vanuit deze locatie hebben we verschillende uitstapjes gedaan en alles was redelijk in de buurt.

Great accommodation experience. The host was very kind and always reminded us of the weather conditions and schedule. The rooms are clean and well-equipped, and it is the best place I have stayed in Iceland. I recommend it.
