    Great location, incredibly bad road there, but that enhances the exclusiveness. Met two returning customers, they love the place as we did. Really nice staff. Passive but "there" and chatted when we wanted to.

    The room is beautiful and the view is incredible. The kitchen is fully equipped and have a lot of spices to use. This place is very close to Husavik if you want to stay just one night but if you want to relax and enjoy the view i would recommend...

    The location is absolutely amazing. The guesthouse has everything you need. Enough bathrooms and toilets. It's the first guesthouse with proper pillows. When we were sleeping you could hear the sea.

Property information

The house called Tungulending was first used to process lumpfish caviar. It was build in the 1950s and was in operation until the year 2000. It has a long history in icelandic fishing culture and still today it is possible to feel the former importance of this place. In 2013 Martin Varga from Germany had decided to rebuild the house, but keep the original atmosphere. Tungulending is located in a very special surrounding. With the pier and old harbor area it still reminds the old days and past use of the building. In 2024, we, Thessa and Chris - also from Germany - decided to take over the guesthouse. We are happy to take on this task and to reopen this special place for many people.

Neighbourhood information

Amazing surrounding. Pure nature. It is very special to find a place for a holiday house so close to the North Atlantic Ocean. Tungulending is in a remote area, it feels like being in an untouched bubble. Unique, peaceful and friendly.
