The two bedrooms also offer incredible views, but in addition, the bedroom windows face north, making them a perfect spot to see the Northern Lights. A private river runs through the backyard with little bridges that allow you to cross if exploring the property. The Glass House is located at the edge of Arnarsapi, a beautiful fishing village in the magical Snæfellsnes peninsula. The house is about two and a half hours drive from Reykjavík, and about three hours from Keflavík International Airport. This house is 95 square meters (1,000 sq ft) and features two bedrooms, an additional sleeping loft, a fully equipped kitchen, a spacious living room with a large smart TV, and a dining table. Each bedroom has a queen bed, and the loft is equipped with a double bed. The aurora borealis - northern lights- are visible (whenever they’re out) from both bedroom windows, the loft window, and all common areas. The house has a 270-degree deck with garden chairs. We highly recommend stargazing at night from the deck. Let your eyes adjust for a few minutes, and you’ll discover a vast night sky above you with many stars and the Milky Way Arm above the House. There is one full bathroom with a shower. The water is heated electrically. Shampoo, conditioner, and soap are provided. A hairdryer is also available. The kitchen is fully equipped with a refrigerator, freezer, a coffee machine for ground coffee (provided), an oven, and an induction cooktop. The living/dining room is large and features oversized windows to the east and west, providing magnificent views. The room features a dining table with chairs, three couches, and a coffee table. Large smart TV with options to log into your streaming accounts. Our home is heated by electricity. As a result, the hot water has NO sulfur scent, which is a bonus here in Iceland. Guest access Guests will have full access to the house and all the described amenities. Linens and towels are provided. All the necessary equipment is located in the house. Guests will have the house all to themselves, but we will be available to assist with any questions or requests you may have. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Dishwasher - Hob - Oven - Refrigerator ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 0.5 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Garden - Patio ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - No lift (single-level property) - Designated smoking areas ### Location highlights - In a village ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/106000000/105480000/105475700/105475653/w1130h1519x0y17-ac2c158f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Nonholl cabin, unique getaway in Iceland Arnarstapi - Washing machine [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-23&endDate=2026-02-24&selected=105475653&PinnedHotelID=105475653&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/42000000/41940000/41932100/41932096/097411d3.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Fell Holiday Home Arnarstapi - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Parking included [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-23&endDate=2026-02-24&selected=41932096&PinnedHotelID=41932096&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/78000000/77130000/77126900/77126828/5b652a8c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Beautiful home between glacier and sea, Iceland Hellnar - Kitchen - Free Wi-Fi - Outdoor space - Parking available 9.8 Exceptional 131 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-23&endDate=2026-02-24&selected=77126828&PinnedHotelID=77126828&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/21000000/20070000/20060800/20060717/2922f526.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lynghagi House - Lava Water Eyja- og Miklaholtshreppur - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Parking included 9.2 Wonderful 9 reviews £437 includes taxes & fees 10 Feb - 11 Feb [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-10&endDate=2026-02-11&selected=20060717&PinnedHotelID=20060717&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Mountain view](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/109000000/108490000/108484600/108484518/4534b239.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Day Dream Hellnar Hellnar - Kitchen - Parking included - Free Wi-Fi - Extra beds/cots 10 Exceptional 2 reviews £310 includes taxes & fees 8 Mar - 9 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-08&endDate=2026-03-09&selected=108484518&PinnedHotelID=108484518&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/73000000/72510000/72507700/72507604/c71b83b2.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Panoramic Views- Nature- Northern lights cottage- NO 1- in Iceland.
