What guests are saying

Thanks for the nice stay. Lisa & Anne from Berlin, Germany
» We had wonderful days in this lovingly decorated house. «

Takk, Martin & Birgitta & Isabel from Bavaria
»We stayed in your house for one great week. It was our harbour for discovering the area from Sandanes to Dettifoss. The north of Iceland showed us the midnight sun, the waterfall, the volcanos, the whales and your lovely house. We enjoyed your stay here a lot and looking forward to our second week in the south. «

Steffi, Erich and Anna from Germany
»Dear hosts, we had a wonderful week with many impressions, many kilometres driven and what felt like 1000 photos. We felt very comfortable in your house. Our personal highlights were the volcanic area around Lake Mývatn, Dettifoss and Godafoss. Whales and dolphins and the wonderful fjords in the north. «
