Lovely rooms in a serene setting. The Host took into our request to have our two family rooms together. The breakfast was amazing and the Chef was able to accommodate my daughter’s vegetarian diet. As well as being able to see the horses, we had access to a lovely lounge with telescope.

There are no shops or restaurants nearby - so you need to eat dinner before arriving. However, the remoteness does make it very quiet and removes light pollution!

Even greater than expected, everything was of very high construction quality, very spacious room, also a spacious shower in the private bathroom, giant bed, very practical arrangement of all the things. Felt like a 4 star hotel, except that this place is in the middle of nowhere (which is a very positive thing, everything super quiet and you're close to nature). Good variety of breakfast, flexible check in and check out. Good self adjustable heating.

Literally can't name a thing that would be a problem.

Lovely, modern, well-equipped cottage - the dishwasher and washing machine were a bonus! Beautiful, quiet location, with horses in the surrounding fields. The cottage was spotlessly clean. Beds were very comfortable too. Very easy self check in. Would definitely stay here again

Nothing really, although would recommend taking the 266 road (to Oddi) from the ring road as the other road is mainly gravel and can be a bit slow

Communication before our arrival was excellent. We were checking out early the next morning, before breakfast was served so they prepared a breakfast for us to go, which was very thoughtful and much appreciated! The self check in very useful because it doesnt put a time pressure on when you have to arrive. The communal lounge area is rustic and tasteful. Loved that they provide a proper coffee machine! The shared bathroom was perfectly clean.

Just an observation, they provide bathrobes but no towels. It was fine because we had our own, but just something for other travellers to be aware of. Beautiful rural location but just again for awareness, access is via a grit road. If I was going to make a suggestion, I'd ask for a heated towel rail in the bathroom :)

We booked the 2 cottages which are basically containers. However, once inside you forget about it as it seems cozy and modern. It was very cleaned and there was a lot of heaters so it quickly became warm. Kitchen has basic equipment enough to prepare simple things, I particularly appreciated that there was a dishwasher. The stables were the best part of the experience, so many horses, some of them let you get close to them, loved it!

Some small maintenance is maybe needed in cottage 2, nothing major. Mattresses could be improved. Although it is written that stables can be visited anytime, it is really hard to find the entrance. I would have appreciated more instructions and also maybe some guidelines on how to behave with the horses as some people might be bothering the animals. Feels a bit hard to reach out to someone as we didn't see any of the staff. They still quickly get back to you via message though.

We stayed in the junior suite and absolutely loved it. The property was conveniently situated with beautiful views all around. It was exceptionally clean with comfortable bed. Breakfast had a good selection to fit all tastes and staff were very friendly and helpful. Being able to visit horses at the stables was an additional charm to the place.

Cannot think of anything

The host (Stella) was very friendly, informative, approachable The room was a good size. The facilities were very well appointed./ decorated. The upstairs lounge room was huge, with very comfortable lounges and a lovely outlook. Breakfast was good, a great way to start the day.. The facility is on a working horse stud, a fantastic bonus to see the horses.

It is a distance from restaurants, when there are no cooking facilities available. The bathroom, while spacious and lovely, could do with more light.

This was a little gem -slightly off the beaten track but worth it for all horse lovers. We had the garden apartment which was very comfortable and everything we needed for 1 night stay. In the morning we were allowed - as are all guests - to go and explore their Icelandic horse stables. Such a highlight for horse/animal lovers as we were able to pat and get to know their gorgeous Icelandic horses - you can also do horse rides which I would have loved to have done but we didn't have time. We cooked our own breakfast and dinner. Recommend this amazing place.

Location was central for us to visit sights in area. Both guesthouse and farm manager were informative, friendly, and helpful. Guesthouse property was wonderful to walk around, not to mention all the sights in the Southern Region of Iceland that we visited.

Had to get silverware from manager - a very minor rub.

The guesthouse is situated on an attractive horse farm. Our room and bathroom were spacious and comfortable.

There was no mini fridge to keep personal drinks cool/or ice available. The breakfast was rather limited for the money. There are two ways to approach the guesthouse. One way is on a short gravel road. The other way is at least 6km. A useful piece of information when in a small rental car. Unfortunately we took the long way to get there.
