One enters the entrance hall with cloakroom and a small but functional kitchenette. From the vestibule, go straight to the shower room with WC. Links goes into it the living room and bedroom. There is a comfortable sofa bed (mattress width 1.60), a table with two chairs and a dresser. The room is bright and friendly and we look Trough the window into nature. The terrace has windbreak to the north and in the summer you can sit nicely with wide views to the southwest and west; down to the river, over the vast plain and the surrounding mountains. Sometimes here grazing horses in the pasture.

You are welcome to decide and pay for the end-cleaning during your stay. If end-cleaning is not paid for, the cottage should be left clean and tidy for the next guests.

    Fantastic place, quiet, great views, and close to Selfoss with shops and activities. Just a few kilometers from the famous Golden Circle. The accommodation is very clean and tidy. Petra is an exceptional host, very kind and helpful. We needed help with the car, and she was available immediately. We've been traveling around Iceland for a while now, and this is the best accommodation. A 5, but I'd rate it 10. Highly recommended.

    Me and my partner stayed here for 7 days, the property was absolutely perfect. The location is great it’s easy to find and tucked away but also 10 minutes from town (Selfoss) and 50 minutes from the south coast sites. The cabin was very cosy and had all the amenities we needed, the bed was comfy and perfect. We woke up and were greeted by chickens and a dog outside which was a lovely surprise. The best part was we saw the northern lights from the cabin on the last night, Petra was easy to communicate with and welcoming. Would highly recommend!

    I stayed here for a few days in March 2025, Petra made the stay very home-like. The property is in the country and is a short drive from Selfoss. It has an amazing view of the countryside as well.

    While space is limited it is efficiently used and made for a great week. The location was quiet and had great views.

    This cozy apartment was the perfect home base for exploring Iceland! It was warm and inviting after long days exploring the stunning landscapes. The well-equipped kitchen made it easy to prepare simple meals, and the comfortable bed ensured a restful sleep. I would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay in Iceland.

    We have really enjoyed our week just outside Selfoss. The cabin was cosy and equipped with all the essentials, and an excellent base to explore southern Iceland from. We even got to see the Northern Lights from just outside the cabin! Petra was an accessible, friendly and super helpful host, she kindly went above and beyond to help us when our flight was cancelled due to a bad storm. We would highly recommend!

    This was such a great little spot to relax in at the end of every day of adventure. Cozy, homey environment. Water pressure in shower was great. Everything was lovely. Views outside by the river were amazing.

    The location is great - just outside Selfoss so it was easy to access Selfoss for gas, restaurants and groceries, etc. but it was in a quiet, country-like location. The house was a great size with a well stocked kitchen. Best thing - we got to see the northern lights while standing on the driveway!

    Our stay in Selfoss was great, everything is as shown. This was a great home base for all the sites on the south coast. We did stay one night in Jökulsárlón beings it was about a 4 hour drive to do our glacier hike and boat tour. Worked out great.

    our stay was very nice and we have been lucky without TV but with a radio. The cottage was full equiped with all things we needed. It was very clean. It was a pitty we havn`t seen and talked to the owner.

    We enjoyed our stay. The location was central for us to use as a hub to take day trips out and back from. It was just the right size for two. The guesthouse was clean and bright and we were greeted by chickens and a rooster upon arrival.
