Summary: We are parents and 2 adult children. The accommodation was extremely comfortable and well thought out with all necessary needs. It is very quiet and lovely for those who are not city folks. We enjoyed many road trips from this spot on our short stay. We would certainly recommend it for exploring the west country, which is fascinating. Many thanks to our hosts for this little piece of heaven.

Summary: Skuli was a superb host. He communicated with us several days before our stay and walked us through every step of check-in. His daughter, Christelle, met us in Reykjavik and drove out, leading the way to their home. She was available to answer any questions about how to work the appliances, etc. She was very helpful. The beds were comfortable, the home was pleasant with a well-stocked kitchen, including spices. A big perk was having a washing machine/dryer in the home. Skuli even supplied laundry detergent. We enjoyed the hot tub and best of all, they are in a quiet community with little lights at night so we could see a wonderful display of northern lights. Skuli was the best host we've had in a long time. If you want to be away from town, and closer to the Snaefelsness Penninsula then this is the ideal location. We were only an hour from the city and could use Skuli's home as a great base to see the peninsula, Arkranes, and the city. Thanks for an amazing stay. You were the best. SH

Summary: From the booking process to planning questions, check-in and check-out, the host was superb and very timely. The house was perfect for three adults. The kitchen was great for cooking and had lots of staples and equipment. We did not use the hot tub but that and the outdoor shower are great amenities. The view from the house is spectacular and I highly recommend staying here. We'd love to go back!

Summary: This was the PERFECT place for our few days of rest after an epic adventure that my better half embarked upon in the highlands of Iceland. Skuli the landlord is an absolute gem, and now someone I truly consider a friend! The place is beautiful, very well kept, clean, extremely well outfitted, quiet, and has everything you could ever want in a mountain getaway. I just know we will be back to stay here. We are in love with iceland, and definitely in love with this place!!! Such an amazing trip, and this house and it's landlord were definitely a big part of that! Thank you Skuli!
