Lake Þingvallavatn is within walking distance. Nearby is the beautiful National Park Þingvellir (Thingvellir). Its historic site is known for the Alþing (Althing), the site of Iceland's first parliament from the 10th to 18th century. The park sits in a rift valley caused by the separation of 2 tectonic plates, with rocky cliffs and fissures like the huge Almannagjá fault. There are a lot of hiking trails in the area.

The village of Laugarvatn is ca 30 km drive away. Laugarvatn is situated in the area Árnessýsla, along the shore of the shallow lake Laugarvatn. The small community with ca 200 inhabitants was originally formed around the boarding school there. Nowadays it is now best known for being a detour on the Golden Circle. Here you can find all basic services like a small grocery store, restaurant, gas station, swimming pool, sauna, horse rental and a golf course. The shores of the lake have several geothermal hot springs. You can also hire a boat and go on the lake. All in all, an excellent location for day tours to Iceland's top attractions like Þingvellir national park, Geysir, Gullfoss and Skálholt bishop seat.

»Nice house and area. Kitchenette could use an update.«

»We stayed there with two persons for one week. From there we have done many trips to waterfalls and also we visited the Raufarholshelir and Reykjavik. When we came back in the evening- there was a warm and comfortable house. So we used the hot pot to relax after an exciting day. Now we are back in Germany.«
