    This was one of the best places we stayed at during our round trip of Iceland. Sadly we only stayed a single night. The view in this house is indescribable beautiful. You are directly by the sea and can watch the port activities. The amenities at this place are also quite appealing. We even got some breakfast in the fridge we didn’t even expected. This was the perfect place to spend Christmas. When visiting consider traveling up north to the polar circle. We were able to sea quite a few seals and some other amazing wild life. The host is extremely nice as well and checking in is as easy as possible. Definitely worth booking this place.

    Everything was excellent, we really enjoyed the stay. The kitchen might get a bit crowded during breakfast/dinner time, but we were always lucky to be almost the only ones there.

    The guesthouse is truly beautiful, modern, clean, cosy, well-equipped and in a nice and quiet place in the very north of Iceland. There is a well-equipped kitchen with a coffee machine and a terrace and self-service breakfast in the morning.

    Unfortunately someone had poured salt in the sugar container by mistake. We couldn’t find any sugar in the kitchen. Otherwise the rest of breakfast was good!

    We had a great time at the guesthouse Lyndhoft. The room was specious and the bathrooms were modern. We were even able to wash our clothes as the owner let us use her washing machine and dryer in the basement! Everything was great. We recommend the guesthouse Lyndhoft!

    The living container stands directly on the car park, with tables and benches in front of it. Fortunately, this was not used, because otherwise the small terrace with barbecue could hardly be enjoyed in a relaxed way. To prevent anyone from peeping into the living space through the 'shop windows', the large windows must also be darkened. The apartment is also called 'The Cave' at the petrol station. We did not found out why ....

    We had our own living container, right next to the guesthouse. Breakfast was served at the petrol station, which also belongs to the guesthouse operators. The fishing village is located directly on the 85 and thus a good starting point for excursions on the north coast of Iceland, e.g. to Dettifoss, etc.
