Guest Reviews
- Manuel (7/5): Familiar stay in historical farm - The kind and very helpful staff
- Marco (9/5): Location usata come base di appoggio per visitare un’ampia zona dell’Islanda - Struttura fuori dal comune, si può dormire e mangiare in comune, cena tipica molto buona, staff attento e cordiale. La seconda notte offerto upgrade gratuito in stanza con bagno privato. Davvero un posto originale nella pace delle campagne Islandesi. Un po’ tanto distante dalla civiltà, i bagni in comune con temperatura non proprio confortevole e lontano dalla zona notte.
- Tina_Wonpur (9/5): Super zum Runterkommen und Abschalten - Super ruhige schöne Lage. Wir haben ein Upgrade mit eigenem Bad bekommen. Junges, hilfreiches Personal. Die Zimmer sind groß und die Betten sind sehr bequem. Wir haben im Tal von der Unterkunft aus eine schöne Wanderung gemacht. Der Hot Pool im Außenbereich ist mega schön. Super um runterzukommen. Das Abendessen dort ist sehr gut und traditionell. Die Dusche hatte so seine Herausforderungen. Das Bad war leider nach dem Duschen etwas überschwemmt.
- khalid (8/5): Très belle endroit pour passer nuit magique et authentique. - Guest house En plein milieu d'une vallee magnifique.
Chambre dans son jus, voyage à travers le temps, décor d'antan. Parquet origine.
On sent que les chambres sont chargés d'Histoire.
Petit déjeuner sympa.
Superbe piscine chaude extérieur et sauna.
Personnel très commercial 😉 et sympa.
- Alexandra (10/5): - Einzigartiges Erlebnis
Extrem freundliches und hilfbereites Personal
Das beste Abendessen das wir auf unserer Islandreise hatten
Tolles Spa
- Enrica (9/5): Antica Fattoria nella Valle tra gli altopiani - La cena vale il viaggio per arrivare, anche in inverno con la neve. Personale disponibile e accogliente, struttura originale e ricca di storia..Piccola Spa con hot tube e sauna, Può essere valorizzata di più ha grosso potenziale.
- Adson Henrique (10/5): A really warming welcome and got room upgraded for free; sauna and hot pool made everything even better. Really worth pl - Everything perfect, one of the best places I’ve ever been in Iceland
- HOSAM (7/5): - La nature et l’originalité Le jacuzzi introuvable
- Molyneux-Sandwith (10/5): - Great location in the valley, amazing food great staff. Really cozy and the little hot pool and sauna are amazing way to start the day!
- cyprien (10/5): -
- Andrea (10/5): -
- Michael (10/5): -
- Anja (10/5): Für all diejenigen, die etwas Besonderes und Urtümliches wünschen. - Sehr freundlich, familiäre Stimmung, Einrichtung wie bei Oma auf eine sehr charmante Art. Essen wurde sehr persönlich auf die Vorlieben abgestimmt. Vegan, vegetarisch,… alles möglich. Zahlreiche Wandermöglichkeiten in der näheren Umgebung. Schön gestalteter Hot Pot. Der Reitausflug war auf sehr niedrigem Niveau, sehr kurzer Ausritt auf ebener Strecke zu einem stolzen Preis im Verhältnis zu der Leistung.
- Denis (10/5): -
- Anna-Lisa (7/5): Sehr empfehlenswert für 2 bis max. 3 Tage! - Frühstück und Silvester-dinner waren sehr lecker, es war den Preis auf jeden Fall wert. Die Saunahütte mit Kneipanlage sind gemütlich eingerichtet, es gibt nur zwei Hängematten Stühle.
Personal sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich!
Das Museum ist modern gestaltet und bietet tiefe Einblicke in das frühere Privatleben der Familie, ein Muss für jeden Gast! Dank audioguides auch gut verständlich (englisch). Leider keine Kochmöglichkeiten/Mikrowelle, sodass man auf die Verpflegung vor Ort eher angewiesen ist, was bei mehreren Tagen doch recht teuer ist.
Kein Kaffee und nur eine Teesorte zur Auswahl.
- Manon (9/5): Staff Really Nice, place full of stories, Really nice guest house - Staff Really Nice, place full of stories, good stay
- CHRISTELLE (8/5): - Le personnel est adorable et fait tout pour que votre séjour se passe bien .
Le dîner du soir est gargantuesque et très très bon.
La chambre est grande et propre.
L'accès au spa et sauna à toute heure est fort appréciable. Dans la chambre il manque :
- de quoi poser sa valise à hauteur d'homme
- une petite table de nuit
- une petite décoration plus chaleureuse
- Betty (10/5): - 環境、房價與設施都非常好,餐點也很優秀 常找不到員工但沒有大礙,總是會出現
- Irena (9/5): Nas enoletni otrok je bil prvi, ki je sedel v starinskem otroškem stolu - Domače vzdušje
- Levke (10/5): -
- jeniffer (10/5): -
- Kim (10/5): Fantastisch - Fantastische locatie, fantastisch ontbijt, de meest comfortabele bedden, super luxe wellnesruimte,....
Het hele hotel ademt sfeer. De gehele authentieke stijl komt overal terug.
Het was schoon en comfortabel. -
- Alexander (10/5): -
- Diogo (10/5): - Ambiente tradicional e acolhedor. Comida caseira e saborosa (tanto jantar como pequeno almoço). Hot Tub espetacular, com um estilo mais rústico.

- Mariah (2/5): unfortunately, I did not have a good stay. I had high hopes. - The location where I slept, the outside door had been messed up by the wind. I was told I would be fine, they propped it closed with the rock. honestly, I did not feel safe all night, anybody or anything could have entered throughout the night. The wind was strong, and the doors and shutters were banging all night that could not shut. Also, I arrived later and they had called previously asking what I want for dinner, never mentioning that it was an extra cost. After I ate dinner, they charged me for dinner, my one beer, and I asked for breakfast and I’m museum tour in the morning. In the morning I went down to the main cabin, and was told I missed breakfast and could not eat or drink any coffee. I did not see a time anywhere on the materials when it was breakfast ended, only the checkout time. I was really excited about using the hot springs, was unable to. I understand this was due to the wind.

- Alessandra (9/5): Das Wilderness Center hat uns super gefallen und wir werden es gerne wieder besuchen! :) - Das Personal im Wilderness Center war sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich. Wir erhielten viele Tipps für unseren Aufenthalt, die Reise und erhielten eine Tour durch die ganze Farm. Es gibt viele Schafe und Pferde, die man streicheln kann. Wir schliefen im Schlafsaal, waren jedoch die einzigen Gäste dort. Es gab eine Sauna mit Hotpot, welcher jedoch gerade in Wartung war, weshalb man uns Tickets für Hotsprings in der Nähe schenkte. Das fanden wir super. Wir meldeten uns für das traditionelle Abendessen im Restaurant an. Dieses wurde uns ausführlich erklärt und war wirklich sehr lecker! Der Schlafsaal ist wie ein Museum eingerichtet, da das Haus früher einer Bauernfamilie gehörte. Einerseits bietet es Charme andererseits ist es auch etwas gruslig.
- Jana (10/5): - Schöne Sauna & Hot Tube, leckeres Essen
- Annick (10/5): Un incontournable! Nous le recommandons chaudement! - Wow! Quel endroit merveilleux, un accueil extraordinaire et des repas délicieux! Ne manquez pas le musée, les excellents repas, ainsi que le bain sous les étoiles et le sauna!
- Jarilynne (10/5): Lovely location! Great staff! - The location was wonderful! I loved the hot pot on site and the sauna! The proximity to so many water falls and Laugarfell was great! We enjoyed the cute museum on site and appreciated the 50% discount! The staff was incredibly helpful. We forgot a suitcase and they quickly realized our mistake and called us before we had been gone more than a few minutes. It was a quick turnaround to be reunited with our belongings! So kind and thoughtful!
- Naomi (9/5): -
- Astrid (8/5): - Le cadre est superbe, le staff est très accueillant et chaleureux. On se sent dans une bulle. L'acoustique entre les chambres et les parties communes, on entend tout ce qu'il se passe.
- Catherine (8/5): -
- Karin (9/5): - De locatie en family-style diner
- Desperski (10/5): -
- Chiara (9/5): - Sehr freundliches Personal, familiäre Atmosphäre. Das wilderness Center liegt etwas abseits und ist nicht so touristisch wie die Südküste, aber dennoch sehr lebhaft.
Die Betten im Schlafsaal sind super gemütlich und es ist trotz der fehlenden Abtrennung erstaunlich ruhig. Zudem phänomenales Essen, sehr authentische Köchin. Super Empfehlung wenn man etwas mehr Ruhe abseits und viel Natur möchte, aber dennoch nicht ganz die Einsamkeit sucht.
- Linda (10/5): - Awesome location. We loved eating dinner and breakfast in the kitchen with other guests. Highly recommend.
- kamil (9/5): - Wspaniala obsluga, swietny kontakt, super mily i bardzo pomocny personel. Pyszne sniadania. „Hot tub” to tak naprawdę „warm tub”. :)
- Kirby (10/5): - The whole experience was stellar, from the location to the staff to the sauna to the incredible homecooked meals that were offered during dinner and breakfast! Thanks team!
- Joachim (10/5): - Das Frühstück war prima und die Lage der Unterkunft war großartig. Im HotPot sitzend die tolle Umgebung zu betrachten war wunderbar.
- Amanda P (9/5): Remote but beautiful - We had a lovely chat in the morning with the chef and the horseback riding guide - two very lovely staff members that made us feel welcome. The breakfast was very good and the dinner was delightful. We arrived too late to order the meat, but the vegetarian option was spectacular. The scenery around the lodge is wild and beautiful, with sheep grazing the property. The shower did not drain properly.
- clotilde (7/5): -
- Giuseppe (10/5): - Posizione top
- Marcus (9/5): - The remote location is stunning and the dinner was amazing. Best lamb we have eaten this journey.
- Pawel (10/5): - Very nice place to stay in remoteness. Common dinner with others was very nice experience.
- Hansjörg (10/5): Tolles Erlebnis - - Die freundliche und familiäre Azmosphäre
- Abseits vom grossen Tourissmusströmen
- Die Abgeschiedenheit Es kommt mir nichts in den Sinn
Dass wir nicht länger bleiben konnten!
- Erik Skov (10/5): En unik oplevelse, vi altid vil huske - Vi nød virkelig vores ophold! Fra den rekonstruerede historiske bygning til udendørs spabadet med en fantastisk udsigt over landskabet, til den lækre middag og dessert i en retro spisestue. En unik oplevelse, vi altid vil huske.
- Joanna (9/5): - Very friendly host, amazing room, beaufitul surroundings, tasty dinner (additional paid), sauna & hot tub included removing one star due to the hot tube that was actually not so hot
- Marc (10/5): - Séjour incroyable ! Le spa au milieu de montagnes était magique. Nous avons pris le dîner typiquement islandais. Nous avions le choix entre agneau et morue. C'était très bon et copieux. Nous aurions apprécié que les prix du dîner soient indiqués avant de commander.
- Guy (8/5): A quirky experience - A one night experience to stay in a traditional Icelandic farm house. Evening meal of traditional lamb was the best meal of our holiday. Nice walk to see the hand cart across the river. The geothermal pool water was cool, not hot. Not worth getting wet for. Would have been nice if museum was complimentary for guests. Breakfast seating was a little cramped.
- Valdas (10/5): Best authentic experience in Iceland - Authenticity
- Gerli (10/5): -
- Davide (9/5): Usciti dalla ring road per un soggiorno particolare - Un bellissimo posto nella valle, con possibilità di passeggiate e corse. Ottima cena e colazione. Vasca calda e sauna disponibili gratuitamente. Consigliamo vivamente di fare l’esperienza di cena condivisa, che per un giusto prezzo offre un’esperienza unica. La vasca calda sarebbe potuta essere leggermente più calda.
- Jorge (6/5): - The staff were nice, but the property is a little dated. And the breakfast is well overpriced (around 20 EUR) for what they offered. I asked to have fried eggs, and the lady told me they don't have a kitchen to fry the eggs, so we ate bread and butter!
- Luca (9/5): - Amazing breakfast with gluten free options.
The staff was super forthcoming and helpful.
We loved the ncluded spa No space to store the luggage in the room
- Breanna (10/5): - AMAZING. The staff were super accommodating and welcoming. I was technically late for supper, but they still provided me with THE BEST lamb dinner (sooo much food was provided, and every bite had my mouth watering). The property was beautiful, and the hot tub/sauna were perfect after a long day of traveling. Met some wonderful people who quickly became friends. Would 100% recommend to anyone passing by this area.
- Marietta (8/5): Very special place! - The hot tub and the food! Not so much public inside area to read or play a game or so.
- A (10/5): - Very special place!
- Michaela (8/5): Možnost výborné lokální snídaně a večeře, ubytování a prostředí bylo dobové a působilo příjemným dojmem. Milý personál. - Jídlo, prostředí
- Kevin (7/5): Gemütlicher Aufenthalt und ideal für Erholung zwischen abenteuerlichen Reisen. - Sauna und Whirlpool.
Freundliches Personal und sehr leckeres Essen. Schwierig am Anfang einen Überblick zu haben wo sich die verschiedenen Räumlichkeiten befinden.
- Francesco (8/5): -
- Karen Margrethe (8/5): - Et godt sted, men vær opmærksom på at når der skrives traditionelt sovesal, så menes der en egentlig sovesal med plads til 16. Der er også andre muligheder med normale værelser. Personalet er mega søde og maden smager godt.
- olivier (9/5): - Mooie, stijlvolle kamer. De hottub was top. Heerlijk gegeten in het restaurant! Erg vriendelijk personeel. Er ontbrak een plek om buiten te zitten. Volgens mij was dat wel bij de andere verblijven.
- MARTINA (9/5): - Struttura incredibile, nel mezzo della natura, con arredamento in stile. Raggiungibile tramite strada sterrata (potrebbe sembrare un punto negativo ma lo scenario in cui la struttura è collocata contribuisce a renderla così affascinante).
Camerata comune molto suggestiva, calda e accogliente in stile “casa comune di Hogwarts” con letti comodi, puliti e con ampio spazio sovrastante: non percepirete il senso di claustrofobia che si sente in alcuni ostelli, ma vi dovrete adattare all’idea di essere visibili agli altri ospiti (le tende sono soltanto per chi sceglie il letto a baldacchino presente nella camerata).
SPA dotata di hot tub e sauna inclusa nel prezzo.
Colazione inclusa nel prezzo INCREDIBILE: tutti prodotti fatti in casa, di ottima qualità (pane e marmellate fatte in casa, Nutella, pancake, frutta fresca e di stagione, uova e affettati e bevande di ogni tipo). La colazione si svolge in alcune stanze comuni arredate con stile in un contesto molto accogliente vicino alla cucina.
Staff molto cordiale e disponibile
Servizi aggiuntivi disponili consultabili sul sito Internet. Noi in particolare abbiamo usufruito di:
- cena;
- horse riding.
Entrambe esperienze consigliatissime! Pulizia e cura delle parti comuni migliorabile (in particolare sauna).
Nella struttura in cui è ubicata l’intera camerata comune (8 letti matrimoniali, corrispondenti a 16 posti letto) previsti solo due bagni (con wc e doccia).
- Daniela (7/5): - Molto pulito e personale gentile e disponibile
- vincenzo (10/5): -
- Samuel (6/5): - Kitchen and shower nice, but no toilet in the pod is not convenient
- Einar (8/5): -
- Helgi (9/5): -
- Joachim (9/5): -
- Ján (10/5): - It was perfect. Amazing place. Something what you can find just in Iceland .
- Javier (9/5): Idílico - La cena excepcional en un entorno maravilloso. El baño termal, un plus. El museo muy interesante y recomrndable. La decoración ideal. El único pero, el colchón. Demasiado blando.
- Emiliano (10/5): - Fantastica esperienza in dormitorio comune. Stupenda l'esperienza della cena con ottimo cibo e colazione genuina. Consigliatissimo. Un pò di pulizia in più
- Yoo (10/5): -
- MA (1/5): La glace de l'accueil, le feu du prix, le bruit des ronflements du dortoir en prime - Le sauna et le hot tub, ainsi que le charme du dortoir à l'islandaise. L'accueil froid, où le sourire mercantile disparaît dès que vous déclinez les nombreuses propositions d'activités hors de prix. Aucun accès à une cuisine, on fait tout pour que vous renonciez à votre popotte et que vous preniez le dîner servi au restaurant pour un prix parisien, alors que nous sommes dans une ferme reculée du bout de l'Islande. Comble de la mesquinerie, on vous fait volontairement attendre 2h30 pour obtenir une bouilloire d'eau chaude, après plusieurs rappels polis de notre part. Soudainement, le service se démène lorsqu'il s'agit de nous "servir" (pardon, jeter) une bière sans verre (à 12€ la canette, plus chère que sur les Champs-Elysées). Sous couvert d'authenticité, l'objectif à peine dissimulé est de vous soulager au maximum de vos couronnes islandaises. A éviter, c'est le seul accueil détestable dans nos 15 jours d'Islande. Il y a eu bien d'autres fermes avec des gens sympas ! (Vallanes, par exemple).
- Viktória (6/5): -
- Bozo (7/5): -
- Cheung (9/5): Excellent cuisine and super relaxing warm bath - the kindness of the staff and the homemade cuisine, the lamb was exceptionally tasty and soft, and all the dishes preparee and served with care and attention. It has been a memorable dinner, the best we had during our holiday. We also appreciate the hot pool, the temperature of the pool was perfect and the facilities well arranged Almost nothing, even if we are not used to sleep in shared rooms, all the guests were quiet and educated and the room was very quiet at night
- Francesca (10/5): Lugar con encanto y pintorescos. - Nos gustó todo: comida, servicio, lugar.... Las estancias comunes un poco pequeñas. Però se entiende porque es una casa pequeña.
- cavallaro (10/5): - Tutto
- Padmanava (8/5): Nice location - The old feel, the location and the friendliness of staff No access to kettle, too soft mattress
- Ruben Christian (8/5): - Authentiek verblijf op prachtige locatie, goede uitvalsbasis voor verkenningstochten in de omgeving, behulpzaam en kundig personeel. Bijzonder bedankt medewerker Jelmer.
- VIEU (7/5): - Acceuil. Lieux. Personnel Le bruit. Impossible de dormir avec le salon en dessous.
- Darius (7/5): Lovely, but also misleading without being told of the cost of the museum tour. - We really enjoyed the delicious family style dinner (additional cost). The food was traditional Icelandic cooking and one of the best meals of our trip. The sleeping arrangements were very tidy and clean. The property staff were all very kind and friendly. We didn’t like that we weren’t told that the museum tour cost money. We were encouraged to go for it because they knew we had some time before dinner. It felt like a scam. We were told that there were accommodations for a sauna, hot pool, and cold pool. However, the hot pool was not hot at all and the cold pool was covered with a wooden board and filled with moss/algae. Our experience was wonderful otherwise but that top incident really soured things.
- Wojciech (8/5): - Nice place. A bit on the older side. Breakfast and food, not to my liking. Setup as a shared communal event, which some may like some not. You share a table with random people. Food was average.
- Esméralda (8/5): -
- Susanne Dimpl (8/5): - Das Abendessen wird mit anderen Gästen an mehreren Tischen eingenommen. Das Essen ist gute Hausmannskost, die Portionen sind reichlich. Teile des Anwesens wirken noch renovierungsbedürftig und haben den Charme einer abgelebten Schihütte. Das Abendessen empfanden wir selbst für Island als zu teuer, die Nachspeise (kleiner Kuchen) wurde nochmals mit €12 verrechnet.
- Clint (8/5): -
- Ma (10/5): - A gem in a remote location, but surprisingly the hotel is well managed and maintained, room is very clean. Dinner was unforgettable, well organized, delicious and homey food. Thumbs up!
It is a good value for our stay.
Keep on your good work!
- Martina (10/5): Unique and memorable place :) - The accommodation is situated at the end of the valley, surrounded by beautiful nature. Unfortunately, because we arrived late, we weren't able to take advantage of the amenities offered. However, this did not diminish our overall experience. The bed was suitable for the two of us, and clean bed linen and towels were provided. Additionally, the shared sanitary facilities were kept clean.
- MARIA TERESA (6/5): - Entorno Instalaciones
- Toma (8/5): -
- Marco (10/5): - Posto molto accogliente! Su prenotazione offrono una cena con piatti tipici Islandesi con opzione di carne, pesce e vegetariano.
Anche la colazione è molto molto buona e ricca. Consigliato per rilassarsi nella piccola struttura termale annessa alla casa.
- Valentina (10/5): - Sehr abgelegen, liebevoll eingerichtet und das Abendessen zusammen mit den anderen Gästen ist ein tolles Erlebnis!
- Sarah (9/5): - Le prix des repas est exorbitant et il n'y a aucune transparence sur les prix. Étant donné qu'il n'y a pas la possibilité de se faire la cuisine ou de stocker votre nourriture, vous êtes obligés de consommer sur place et ils en profitent. C'est regrettable
- Andrei (9/5): - Un lugar fantástico, naturaleza, caballos Un habitación compartido
- Gerald (10/5): - Best ever farm stay and experience. Outstanding staff, food and chef that are well worth the cost. Unexpectedly good dormitory sleeping. Great hot showers are everywhere. Many activities that are well guided and some that are totally sublime that you can do on your own which cost nothing extra. Great Canyonside exploring and waterfalls to chase. Personal transportation to and from the Egilsstadirr airport was a great experience in itself.
Will return because the place is magical.
- Hannah (10/5): - Man fühlt sich sofort wie zu Hause. Es ist sehr gemütlich eingerichtet, das Personal ist sehr bemüht, dass jeder einen perfekten Aufenthalt hat, ohne dabei aufdringlich zu sein. Das Essen war super lecker und authentisch, der Spa Bereich war bei jedem Wetter einfach herrlich. Würden es jedem wärmstens empfehlen hier länger zu bleiben.
