Company information

All of the staff are welcoming and excited to meet the guests.

Property information

Our property is the center in Bárðardalur valley. All year round we have events, festivities and host parties. Built in the 1960s as a boarding school for local kids, it has only recently retired as the kindergarten. Now Kiðagil serves as a guesthouse in the summer, and a sort of community-center all year round.

Neighbourhood information

The valley is a lovely place to take a long Sunday-drive any day of the week. The hills/mountains are excellent for a light hike, and the two waterfalls at each end of the valley are both sights to be seen.
