We rented the cottage for one night. It was a short stay. It really is a cottage out in the middle of nowhere. But the cottage is fully equipped with kitchen, and we were able to see some northern lights. Enjoyed the stay.

The property was great! It was nice and cozy and had everything we needed. We even had a great view of the Northern Lights! The owner was fantastic too, despite us arriving late for check in due to unforeseen circumstances, the owner was very accommodating and even led us to our cottage with her car

This cabin is truly and Iceland experience. It is set off in a quiet location with amazing views. Checking in was simple and the cabin had everything we needed to shower, cook and relax. It was spacious with a large living area and a large deck. There were two bedrooms and we comfortably fit as a couple with two teenagers. It was minutes away Myvatn Nature baths and other great sites. There was a couple of places to eat and grab snack nearby.

Horrible management. If you have any issues, they will never compromise. Once they got your money they won't communicate. Don't ever stay there

Nice wooden cottage in nice surroundings with a beautiful view. Kitchen has everything you need besides a spatula. It was very clean. Check in and out was easy. Towels got changed the next day, which is a plus. The cottage was warm and comfortable during our stay in November. Only con we have is that the beds were too soft and that the laminate in the bathroom is a bit swollen. Moreover the bedrooms could have been a bit more spacious. All in all we enjoyed our stay and would recommend it.

Virkelig en dejlig stor hytte/sommerhus. Flot indrettet. Fint nemt at tjekke ind. Den bedste udsigt ud over søen og bjergene i baggrunden.

Our cottage was very spacious and clean. We were able to cook a nice meal using the oven and enjoyed the beautiful view of the mountains. The beds were comfortable and the shower was hot (smelled a little like sulphur). Would definitely recommend to anyone traveling the ring road.

Encantadora cabaña

Cabaña de madera, espaciosa. Habitaciones pequeñas, pero cómodas (el colchón bueno para descansar). Limpieza OK. Baño pequeño pero limpio. Cocina amplía y bien equipada (aunque la tostadora necesita un cambio ya). Vistas al lago Myvatn, se ven los pseudocráteres en la lejanía. A mis pequeñas les encantó la zona abuhardillada que tiene la cabaña. Enchufes en gran número para recargar los dispositivos de toda la familia. Personal de recepción amable y atento. En una palabra, encantadora. Repetiríamos sin duda.
