Great guest house on a farm. Good breakfast in the AM to start the day. Room was dorm like in size but bed was comfortable and the staff was good.

Great place with everything you need. Very clean and very good food. We had 4 bathroom (2 with showers) for 6 room wich is more than enough. We were staying in the old building and it was great so I can only imagine how nice the new one is...

Please note that there is not kichen just a microwave and a mini fridge for 16 rooms. We bought groceries before getting there and we couldn't use them. The picture on the accomodation shows an old kitchen which they not longer have.
Nice breakfast and 20 min away from Vik.

Great stay! Very cute and clean, friendly staff. The only thing we would have preferred is if there were three separate beds instead of one double but we’re just being picky. Shared washrooms and showers were very nice and clean. Complimentary breakfast was awesome, nice variety of food! Would highly recommend and stay again.

We enjoyed our stay at the guesthouse! Everything was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed dinner in the restaurant the night of our arrival and highly recommend it, breakfast was great too! Lastly, we were able to see the northern lights on property and enjoyed not needing to travel to see them.

This guesthouse was adorable. It was lit up with holiday lights which made it very welcoming after a long day of driving. It was conveniently located to sights we wanted to visit. The family room was perfect for our family of 4.
