    The guesthouse was charming and just what we needed. The hot pot was fantastic after a day of hiking. The location is perfect for day trips down the coast.

    A great place to stay when doing the Golden Circle. Grocery, pharmacy, gas stations etc nearby but you feel tucked away in the county side. The private hot tub is such a luxury to have! Sabine was a wonderful host, providing lots of helpful info...

    The unit was beautifully finished with everything you could need. The hottub was delightful and the host sent us so many brilliant recommendations for dining and activities in the surrounding areas. Couldn't have asked for anything else.
