This was a great place to stay. We had our family, 10 of us, and we all enjoyed ourselves. Out of 5 places we stayed this was the kids favorite. Plenty of room and great hot tub. We found everything that we needed for our stay from all kitchen items to fans. I am a very picky sleeper. Normally on vacation I don't sleep well and usually can't wait to get in my own bed. Not here. I slept like a baby. I even pulled up the bedding to see if I could see the mattress brand incase it is possible to get in the states. To top it off we had a fantastic lights display. You won't be dissapointed.

Great space

The house was clean and had everything that we needed for the kitchen and bathroom. It was perfect for our big group and the views from the house were beautiful. The location of the house was also great because we were close to many of the popular things to see in Iceland but also far enough away from the more populated areas which meant we got to see the northern lights.

Wonderful Golden Circle location

We loved our stay here, we brought our 3 married children and their spouses and there was plenty of room for all 8 of us. Rooms had gorgeous views. The house’s location is idyllic, rural, but not far from Selfoss and easy to get to lots of fantastic natural wonders. All the amenities we needed, light and airy. Would definitely stay again.
