Also we try to be in the neighborhood as much as we can, and love meeting up with our guests if they want. Otherwise we respect your privacy and won't bother you with any unnecessary interruptions.

Neighborhood overview
We are about 15min drive from a small town called Borganes, wich has most of the thing you might need when vacationing in Iceland. Grocery store, wine store, petrol station, restaurants, swimming pool, bank, hospital and more. All around us the beautiful nature ready for you to explore!

Getting around
You will need a car to get to the cabin. In the late fall, summer time and early autumn, a small car will suffice, but your better off with a 4x4 rest of the year.

Idyllic with great communication

The cabin was a lovely getaway and very private. We were glad to have a 4x4 because of the bad weather we faced, but any concern we could have had was evident in the information provided by our host. Additionally, they were incredibly attentive and communicative on the couple of instances we needed some help!

Lovely cottage

The cabin was described accurately in the listing, though it's a bit more rustic than the photos appear. It was very clean and well-kept. The hosts provided good communication during booking and clear instructions to arrive. The views are majestic. There's a little babbling brook nearby, and lots of birds and vegetation. Really lovely. One thing to be aware of if you visit in summer: the upper windows do not have shades. The lower main windows all have shades to pull down to block the midnight sun, but the upper windows are open and there is some sunlight in the cabin at all hours. I recommend bringing an eyemask. This cabin is comfortable for 1-2 persons. I would not recommend for more than two.

A little slice of heaven!

The cabin was absolutely amazing. Nestled in the foothills of a local mountain with spectacular views as far as the eye can see. Our only regret is that we were only there for one night, I could see myself reading a good book on the deck, or viewing the northern lights at night. The cabin was clean and well appointed and very comfortable. The owners were the best communicators we've ever had the pleasure to interact with. They had plenty of local recommendations and things to do. We drove about 40 minutes away to a small hot spring in the middle of nowhere. It was amazing to say the least!

Fantastic Stay

We enjoyed our stay in this lovely little cabin. It was very warm and clean and had everything we needed for our time in Iceland. The location was great and the view from the front deck was beautiful. The owners were very easy to work with and provided fantastic directions and information about the area which made planning our trip much easier. The cabin is not far from the nice little town of Borgarnes. We had dinner out one night and were easily able to get any groceries we needed. We also used the community center in Borgarnes, which has a great outdoor warm pool with hot tubs and a sauna. Overall a great cabin and a fantastic location.

Cosy cabin

The cabin was spotlessly clean and the bed so very comfortable. The location is great for exploring the Snæfellsnes peninsula-a must do! It’s a little bit of a bumpy drive off the ring road, but worth it for the privacy and views. I highly recommend this rental.

Charming, cozy cabin just far enough away from Reykjavík

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful stay at this cabin. Despite some challenges with snow on the gravel drive, we loved the location and will definitely be coming back! If you are visiting in winter, be sure to rent an SUV!

This was a great cabin to stay in, very spacious and cosy. It’s a bit out of the way with a long gravel road but that’s what makes it so peaceful. You can see forever from the front porch. The hosts were very good about responding to questions quickly.

Beautiful, secluded and very rustic and cozy cabin.

We loved staying here. It was a perfect, cozy get away in Iceland. The internet was reliable, had movies for our kids and provided a great base to explore the Western peninsula. The hosts were easy to connect with and also quick to reply. Thank you!
