A lovely cabin.
Delightful cabins in a lovely location. Unfortunately the weather was terrible while we stayed at Austurey but our cabin was a great place to hunker down and let the storm pass. The cabin had everything we needed with good cooking facilities, which was essential given the weather. Lots of sheep wandering around on the sheep farm.

This was one of 3 cottages we stayed at during our visit to Iceland and this was by far our favorite! Very big compared to most others. The place was cute and comfortable with great black out curtains. The bed was very comfortable and the only whole style bed (instead of two twins pushed together) we found in all of our Iceland accommodations. The only comment for improvement was that I personally found the blanket and pillow covering had a pretty look, but an odd texture that made me feel a bit itchy when sleeping. But we still enjoyed the cottage and the atmosphere of the surrounding farm.

We had a great stay at the cottages. The sheep just outside our door were very cool. The cottage was small but made good use of the space and was very comfortable. Blackout blinds on every window made it easy to sleep despite the 24-hr daylight. The only (minor) concern I had was the bedding... The pillowcases and quilt cover had a rough textured decorative pattern which was a bit uncomfortable. I had to remove the pillowcase. Still, 2 thumbs up and highly recommended.

It was a great place to have a cup of tea and soak on the view after a day of hiking.

You have to stay here!!
Had the most amazing stay here. Beautifully appointed cottages with panoramic views surrounding. The cottages are amazing inside, warm, cozy and the most incredible bed. Shower is rainfall, bathroom was well equipt and the communication throughout was amazing! Willl recommend for sure - plus we saw the northern lights which is why we picked this location (along with accessibility to things nearby)

Nice cottage all to ourselves!
We loved this location! We stayed here our first two nights in Iceland. Best decision ever. Easy to find, centrally located to what we wanted to do, and a very inviting home. We met the owner as he was working on the property and you can tell he attends to his property. I would stay here again and my friends are visiting next month and they booked here too. It was great to share with them how nice this place was and how happy we were. And, we could watch sheep come and go.

One of my best ever stays!
The cottage is dreamy! Overlooking the lake, the sunrises and sunsets are GORGEOUS. It’s situated close to many of the golden circle attractions but feels very remote and intimate. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to stay in south east Iceland.

Perfect Cottage
Loved our cottage. Beautiful view out windows to lush green pasture and mountains in the distance. Had everything we needed and was a perfect home-base for our tour of the Golden Circle.

This was the third time visiting this property and it won’t be the last either; it never disappoints. If you’re looking for solitude, beautiful scenery, and a place that’s centrally located in the Golden Circle, this is it! Cannot wait to come back and visit this property again.

Cool Cabins!
Very cool cabins that seem in the middle of nowhere, but give you good access to Gullfoss and other attractions in the Golden Circle. We stayed there for 2 days and it was very comfortable, very nice. Definitely check out Fridheimar - a restaurant in a greenhouse that specializes in amazing tomatoes.

A rare treasure of simple perfection
This place is one of those very rare gems you find that is - simply perfect. Cozy, immaculately clean, beautifully designed as a tiny Romantic home, (or solo retreat), perfectly peaceful, private... We had an exquisite sunrise over sparking snow covered fields & frozen lake for New Years Day 2021! And the owner went way above & beyond and left us a bottle of champagne for New Years! Amazing. This is a rare treasure, in every way

I love the seclusion. I love that they had Netflix because I binged watched Outlander while waiting for the Aurora to appear and it did faintly. I love that the Geysir and other points of interest weren't to far away. I love that the store was 5 min away. I love that the owners were distant but yet there when I had questions. I stayed for 9 nights and I miss it already. It felt like a home away from home. I highly recommend these cottages if you like seclusion and to have time for introspection and comfort.
