I stayed here for a few days in March 2025, Petra made the stay very home-like. The property is in the country and is a short drive from Selfoss. It has an amazing view of the countryside as well.
This cozy apartment was the perfect home base for exploring Iceland! It was warm and inviting after long days exploring the stunning landscapes. The well-equipped kitchen made it easy to prepare simple meals, and the comfortable bed ensured a restful sleep. I would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay in Iceland.
We have really enjoyed our week just outside Selfoss. The cabin was cosy and equipped with all the essentials, and an excellent base to explore southern Iceland from. We even got to see the Northern Lights from just outside the cabin! Petra was an accessible, friendly and super helpful host, she kindly went above and beyond to help us when our flight was cancelled due to a bad storm. We would highly recommend!
Perfect location for exploring the south coast of Iceland, very clean property and has all the amenities required!
Property very well looked after, very warm even when itâs blowing a hoolie outside!
Would definitely stay again!
We enjoyed our stay. The location was central for us to use as a hub to take day trips out and back from. It was just the right size for two. The guesthouse was clean and bright and we were greeted by chickens and a rooster upon arrival.
Our stay in Selfoss was great, everything is as shown. This was a great home base for all the sites on the south coast. We did stay one night in Jökulsårlón beings it was about a 4 hour drive to do our glacier hike and boat tour. Worked out great.
The location is great - just outside Selfoss so it was easy to access Selfoss for gas, restaurants and groceries, etc. but it was in a quiet, country-like location.
The house was a great size with a well stocked kitchen.
Best thing - we got to see the northern lights while standing on the driveway!
Me and my partner stayed here for 7 days, the property was absolutely perfect. The location is great itâs easy to find and tucked away but also 10 minutes from town (Selfoss) and 50 minutes from the south coast sites.
The cabin was very cosy and had all the amenities we needed, the bed was comfy and perfect. We woke up and were greeted by chickens and a dog outside which was a lovely surprise.
The best part was we saw the northern lights from the cabin on the last night, Petra was easy to communicate with and welcoming.
Would highly recommend!
Beautiful property located just east of Selfoss with easy access to the southern region. 10 minutes outside of Selfoss where there are grocery stores, restaurants etc. Secluded with a beautiful river running through front of the property. You might even get to say hi to some chickens!
Phenomenal stay- we saw the aurora from the porch!
As stated, we managed to get a glimpse of the aurora from the porch, which was so nice at the end of our week long stay. When we first arrived, we had a minor issue with the WiFi and shower drain- Petra was responsive and fixed these issues immediately and even checked in with us later in the week. The cabin was a lovely place to come home to after long cold days in Iceland, and we would love to stay here again!
This place was clean, cozy and had everything I needed including wifi and a small kitchen. Everything that I wanted to visit was within a one hour distance in every direction. The price is fair. The place is quiet and beautiful surrounded by horses and nature. The views are breathtaking and at night if you are lucky you'll see every star in the sky and the northern lights like I did. Thanks Petra.
Petra is a fantastic host and even lent us an appliance! She offers great recommendations to travel as well. The place itself was exactly as expected and had everything needed for a week stay for 2 people. The location gave us the feeling of being secluded in nature while still being close to town, charging/gas, and most importantly, easy access to the golden circle, black sand beach, waterfalls, hot springs and many other beautiful things Iceland has to offer with only a short drive! Hope to be back soon. Thanks!
We had one issue. The adres wasnât on Google maps. And Apple Maps give me a wrong adres. But lucky we had some direction from the owner. So we can locate the adres. But after we found the house it was very comfortable and was a great stay. The shower wasnât capable of standing on his own. But personally not a issue. We recommend to others who want to stay in Iceland. This is the locatie Apple Maps: 63,93205° N, 20,84315° W
Youâre welcome.
This was such a great little spot to relax in at the end of every day of adventure. Cozy, homey environment. Water pressure in shower was great. Everything was lovely. Views outside by the river were amazing.
our stay was very nice and we have been lucky without TV but with a radio. The cottage was full equiped with all things we needed. It was very clean.
It was a pitty we havn`t seen and talked to the owner.
