    Can't really say anything about it, I arrived in the dark, and left the next day, so I didn't get to meet the owners, didn't really see the place, basically slept and showered there and left again.

    We couldn't lock the door, and later we found out that we had to turn the handle up first to lock it, and because the check-in time was a bit short, we arrived late, but we couldn't contact the landlord immediately. Later, we directly asked the person living next door and he told us which room it was.

    The room was quite comfortable and the nearby environment is also very good. We love those sheep and animals

    The garbage system is extremely confusing! Water goes everywhere in the shower due to no cubicle. Noise from upstairs is noticeable.

    Lovely staff who were responsive via the app and one of the workers, Kristin, gave us a tour of the farm when we left, so nice! Good location for exploring the south coast and further East. I enjoyed seeing the horses when I drove in and out of the property. Netflix on the TV is always fantastic. Sufficiently equipped kitchen. Coffee and tea provided.

    The shower was a bit older but quite sufficient. Nothing else bothered us

    The fact that it was in such a quiet environment where we could see the horses and occasionally 2 little dogs came to see us. This place is absolutely excellent for aurora viewing as there are only a few lights to disturb you

    A farm house

    The house has no lock. Hence, when the farm hand came to help us with the shower, he just got in into the living room. When we got out from the room, we were startled to see him standing there! uffff... The location is quite far from the main road.

    This is the first farm house that we ever stayed, and we were so excited. The bed was comfortable. Kitchen was fully equipped. Owner was prompt in responding to our request.

    The best stay of our Iceland trip. I came back here after 8 years yet again. I love the farm life around this property, which has a super friendly dog as well. You get to enjoy the sheep and the horses around and can even buy farm products like milk and meat The place is away from any major city and slightly off the ring road but still very well connected by a well-maintained road. This is not very far from Reykjavik, so makes for a perfect stay on your first or the last day of a roadtrip. Just rent a car in Reykjavik and head here in 2 hours. This is also located very close to Seljalandsfoss. Also, a perfect place to enjoy northern lights. Don’t even need to go out anywhere, just enjoy from the property without any light pollution. We got the best view

    The waste segregation buckets could have been more (couldn't find all the colours). We used our own bags.

    Everything was great - the location (offbeat/ rural), the homely setup, the facilities, their 🐕 ( 😃) P s , the sustainable waste segregation was a good step

    Trash separation instructions were a little confusing and the bins were not labeled on the outside so we had to lift a heavy stone paver multiple times to find the right one. Not a huge deal but recommend labeling the outside of the larger bins as well.

    Great location, comfortable apartment.

    The kitchen was poorly equipped. The water pressure was very low and the curtain claustrophobic but nonetheless using the shower always got water all over the bathroom. The beds were uncomfortable. There was also quite a bit of ADA equipment cluttering the apartment.

    Nice location in the middle of Icelandic farm country, close to the Vestmannaeyjar terminal. A fair amount of space inside and very private feeling.

    Nothing. As above, if the expectations are for a working farm, then this place provides as such.

    The location was perfect for me because I was heading to the Westman Islands for a day trip. I so appreciated that Oliver, one of the farmhands, was able to tell me more about the farm and the cows, even showing me the milking area. I did not ask to partake in milking, and my travels didn't allow for the milk/meat that's for sale), but those are apparently options too. My expectations were for a working farm, and with a washer/dryer available, it had everything I wanted/needed. If you set your expectations as Four Seasons, with nary a bug, only then would you be disappointed. I can't think of anything better than watching the midnight sun with horses and sheep out back.

    The coffee pot had no filters, and the kettle was broken. I know it sounds trivial, but when you've driven many hours and you're very tired, these are very important things!

    It was very spacious and light filled, and we met a very cute dog! It was also cool to be so close to a horse farm, where we got to see them rounding up the horses as they galloped away.

    Location was central for south coast towns of Vik, Hvolsvöllur and Selfoss. Apartment was invitingly warm, which was most welcome in the middle of winter. Lovely and peaceful area, ideally located for exploring the nearby beach, which we had to ourselves. Owners were very helpful and easily contactable. They gave us an alert when the aurora happened to be visible too! The ground floor apartment has been setup for wheelchair use, with everything in reach. We were invited to to visit the horses and other farm animals which was lovely. Would certainly stay here again.
