3 Bedroom Villa in Hjardarfell, Eyja og Miklaholtshreppur

We have three beadrooms and to bathrooms, one with a shower and the other with a bath tub. There are all facilities for cooking in the house, and our guests can have full acsess using all cooking oils and spices, coffe and a nice selection og tea´s. We also welcome our guests with a bottle of wine. The house is located on a fully operating horse breeding farm close to the magical Snæfellsjökull and the old town of Stykkishólmur where the film, The secret life of Walter Mitty was filmed.
There are so many things to do and see in Snæfellsnes national park. Driving to the little harbour in Arnarstapi, tasting the lovely seafood soup at the cafe down by the sea in Hellnar or hiking up the glacier. There is also a nice cave to visit, (URL HIDDEN) , or a hike through Rauðfelldsgjá (URL HIDDEN) Stykkishólmur is also a must visit, gourmet restaurant called Narfeyrarstofa, the black nordic house or the museum with water from all the glaciers in Iceland. Sæferðir has a nice 2.hour trip where they educate you about the Islands in Breiðafjörður and feed you fresh sushi. Best fich and chips in Iceland by the harbour and allso Narfeyrarstofa and the Nordic house is nice to visit :)
A horse riding trip on the beach is not to be missed :) A nice historic hike is up to a small mountain Helgafell close to Stykkishólmur. There is a guide there and they charge ISK 400 per person for the hike. It is an easy walk, takes no more than 15 minutes to go to the top, but the view from the mountain is amazing over the Breiðafjörður bay and the islands there. The area around Hótel Búðir is also a nice hike, white beach, lava and an old black church. Seals can also be spotted at the beach of farm Ytri Tunga, just on the way to Búðir, Arnarstapi and Hellnar (road 54).

Summary: We had a lovely stay for several days at this well-designed home located in a lush, beautiful environment—we were able to cook with the fully stocked kitchen, explore the peninsula, and enjoy time in the space and around the property. It was a perfect resting spot for our family after driving around the country.

Summary: Beautiful location lovely property. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. A great spot if you would like to tour the Peninsula while staying in Iceland! A couple of nice restaurants within a five minute drive. Really a beautiful spot and a wonderful location if you are looking for a more rural experience and access to the peninsula.

Summary: The house is absolutely perfect! We used it as our base to explore for a few days and couldn’t be happier. The views are amazing and the perfect backdrop to enjoy a coffee or read. The house is beautiful inside and out and the hosts are highly responsive. Can’t wait to return!

Summary: Easy arrival thanks to the instructions given by Nadine. We immediately felt at home. We greatly appreciated the book of hikes in the Snaefelness peninsula (even though in Icelandic) ! The view from the house is stunning, always changing with such a beautiful light.

Summary: Our stay at Nadia's house in Snæfellsnes was wonderful all around. The home is spacious and easily housed the 5 of us. The upstairs rooms are better suited for shorter people but our two 185cm+ teenagers managed fine. The kitchen is well-stocked with pans, cooking implements, dishware and cutlery. The place was spotlessly clean and felt very much like a tastefully and nicely modernized rustic ranch home. The location served as a great base for trips to the south coast of Snæfellsnes and to Stykkishólmur. It is a little remote from a supermarket, but there's petrol within 5km so no worries there. Nadia was super-repsonsive as a host, and generously provided a nice snack and free use of spices and cooking oils, as well as linens. We stayed 4 nights and were able to use the laundry machines which was a big help. Getting to watch horses gamboling outside the windows was heartwarming, and the setting is gorgeous. I would recommend Nadia's place to anyone seeking a quiet and lovely refuge while touring Snæfellsnes.

Summary: Our family of 2 adults and 2 teens thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Beautifully decorated home, with a unique location on a working horse farm (but still quite peaceful), well situated for hikes and sightseeing on the peninsula. The kitchen (and indeed the whole house) is very well outfitted; we felt super comfortable and at home here. Excellent communication throughout. We stayed 4 nights—could happily have stayed a week. Would love to come back someday!
