Erpsstadir Cottage

The cottage was great and had an amazing view! Everything was comfortable and the location was great. We got to visit the creamery and store. We played with the dogs and cows. Overall amazing

Fantastic location in the hill with no other houses nearby. Perfect place for Northern lights. House is 100 meters beyond what the Google map suggests. Parking at door step. Nice hot tub with hot water. Kitchen is well equipped. Washing machine and Dish washer convenient. House is nice and warm. Can go for a round trip of West from here. Some of the lights were not working and slight air leak from windows may be an issue in winter and so will be the access road. There are 3 bedrooms but only one bathroom.

We were looking forward to this place our whole trip. We had quite high expectations for this place. Our expectations got far exceeded. We could have never expected how perfect this is going to be. The cottage is rustically designed which gives off such a nice and cosy vibe. It is so hard to describe this place. To really get what I mean you would have to stay there for a night. The host has a farm which is located around 800m away from the cottage. As we stayed there in winter everything was packed with snow, you really cant imagine how nice it looked almost like in a Disney movie. The host family is so extremely nice and kind hearted, the felling of being welcomed is overwhelming. You are even able to visit the barn with the owners or without them. There you can cuddle with some nearly born calfs and see how the farm life works. Such a great and authentic experience. When visiting the barn you are also able to visit the barn shop of the family which only opens for you. There you can get so nice things. We did some shopping for our dinner there. The quality of the food is out of this world. You can also get some traditionally Icelandic hoodies for such a great deal. They are locally made and stunning. And when visiting the shop even in winter time, you have to try the ice cream. There they sell the best ice cream you can imagine. I have eaten a lot of great ice cream all over the world already but nothing can come close to this one. Every flavor they offer is more than delicious, but the best ice cream in the world is the salted caramel one. When you try it you wont want any other ice-cream in your life. After dinner we checked out the hot tub in front of the cottage. Due to it being winter it was quite cold and completely dark outside, but the water had such a great temperature. When chilling in there you feel like a king especially with the view you get and due to the low light pollution there you can see the best night sky. Its breathtaking.

Perfect Location for northern lights to stay. Their dairy farm.

The toaster was not so clean. Sulphur smell in the bathrooms.

The cottage is wonderful

A perfect, easy-to-find cottage, large and cosy, with all the ammenities and even a hot tub. The beds are large and cosy with elegant linens. The host is very responsive and kind. Definitely the best accomodation in our 14-days road trip!

The cottage was very homey and had everything we needed. The hot tub was filled for our arrival with Geothermal water and was a nice way to relax after our flight and long day of travel!! They were also very kind to open their farm storefront for us to let us buy some of their yummy ice cream and goodies.

It's a bit dark and no lamp but the host gave us clear instructions. It's a very cozy cottage with laundry and dish washers. No light so can see clear northern light.
