    Had everything you would need for a cottage retreat! You could also see the northern lights from the cottages as there is barely any light pollution!

    Well equipped cabin - we stayed in several like it, and this was the best equipped. Nice and quiet part of town, and very convenient stop on the Ring Road on the way towards Akureyri. Great spot for viewing the northern lights, which put on a...

    Cute, warm log cabin. We arrived during a storm and it was very windy up on the hill so were very grateful for shelter! The kitchenette was small and basic, with most things you need to cook a meal. Not a lot of room to move inside with 4 people...

This very cosy cottage is located in a beautiful secluded spot (7km from #1) where, in winter, the chances to experience the wild dance of the northern lights are excellent and in the summertime you’ll experience the serene atmosphere of Icelandic nature as it vibrates with life. Come and enjoy the surroundings which include a beautiful valley with a creek trickling through it, smallest forrest on earth, beautiful old church and hiking paths or keep warm and cosy inside while you relax. In the cottage you’ll find a small kitchenette equipped with all essentials to make a simple meal. There is a fridge, two plate stove top, coffee maker, toaster and a kettle. Beds are made, linen is included. The cottage sleeps up to 4 adults. In the cottage is a bunk-bed that consists of 1 1/2 sized lower bed and a single sized top bed, and a sleeping sofa that can be folded out to double size. This cottage has a private bathroom and shower, towels and shower-soap are included.
For the cottage's closest surroundings, there is a very small forrest, a beautiful valley and an old church and cemetery which are well worth taking a walk for. While it is dark in Iceland you have excellent chances to experience the northern lights. Since the cottages are in a secluded spot, there aren't many street lamps which gives you the best view to the stars.
