Great stay in remote cottage!

Karl and his wife were very accommodating—there was a problem with the original property we booked with them, so they offered us a bigger and nicer cottage for the same price. It was in a very remote area, which we loved. Very cozy, and the hot tub was lovely. Communication was great as well. Thanks very much!!

Lovely Place

It was clean and quaint, with a great location to use for visiting the Golden Circle. It was quiet but did not feel too isolated and had all the little amenities that made the stay comfortable. The hot water has a smell of sulphur because it is coming from a natural hot spring, so if you can handle that you will love the place!

Quite comfortable!

The cottage is well equipped, comfortable, and clean. Check-in was a little cumbersome because we needed to stop at the owner’s home to pick up the key and bedding. But it was a pleasant stay and convenient location.

The cottage was the perfect home away from home! It was very clean and provided everything we needed for our visit. We even saw the northern lights from the hot tub! Karl had great communication and was the ideal host. If you are considering booking, we would highly recommend!

Sweet cottage

We had a lovely stay at this cottage. Very comfortable, in a great location to visit the Golden Circle and Southern Iceland. The cottage is very clean and organized and well equipped with thoughtful touches. Karl and Jona were very communicative hosts. We enjoyed having so much privacy with the location of the cottage, but we recommend picking up groceries before you head out here. We also recommend visiting the thermal baths at Fontana ( a 5 min drive). Much less crowded than the Blue Lagoon and a fraction of the price! We will definitely book this cottage again

Perfect cozy cabin in Golden Circle

We so enjoyed our stay at Karl’s place. It was a perfect size for our family of six and we loved how well constructed and maintained we found this private little cabin in the Woods. We found it was stocked with everything that we needed and Karl went out of his way to provide detailed instructions and plan ahead for everything. The slight sulfur smell from the water honestly just added to the experience and charm. We felt like we got the authentic Icelandic / Golden Circle experience while staying here.

Quiet stay on the Golden Circle

It was very quiet and beautiful there. It was close to a few of the things on the Golden Circle and far away from things in the Reykjavik area. It was a bit rustic, but it was very clean and comfortable. The stars at night were magnificent and it was peaceful there. The owners are very nice and gave us everything that we needed, including a gps to get around in our rental car. The kitchen was adequate for making meals whenever we wanted and the fridge was a good size for storing our food items and drinks. There are a few good restaurants in the area, and also a nice spa in Laugarvatn with the thermal pools.

Great location

My family of 4 enjoyed our stay. The cottage had everything we required. Location great for sight seeing. There is a sulfur smell to the water, but it didn’t bother us. We did have to pick up bedding at owners home, which we didn’t know beforehand. They were very informative however. Gave us a German to locate the cottage. We would recommend.

Very nice cottage

It was clean, warm and cozy. The setting had good views on a clear day and was a nice wooded area. It is close to everything in the Golden circle and has conveniences close by. We used it as a home base for day trips, which made some days a little long upon returning. It was well equipped for cooking and relaxing. Good WiFi. One suggestion would be for the owner to put a picture of the gate with driving instructions as we were unclear of which cottage it was initially. We couldn’t see the cottage number when driving. The owner was very responsive and kind. Overall it was a great trip.

Perfect clean cottage with a great location

We had such a fabulous time at this cottage. It was perfectly clean and comfortable. The owners even provided a pack an play for our son, which proved to be very helpful. They provided a GPS unit which was awesome for finding our way to the property. It is located in the Golden Circle area just outside Laugarvatn. There are great things to see in and around that area and it also provided a central location to travel outside the Golden Circle. The hot tub was a nightly favorite of ours. Just totally perfect - thank you Karl and Jona!
