There are a few other houses near by, but far enough away where the house still felt private and peaceful.

The house is amazing overall, with everything you might need, including lots of towels, card games, and a wood burning stove. The view off the back porch of the nearby river and mountains was incredible, and with Gianni Falls just a short walk away. It could use a second indoor shower, but otherwise we loved it and would stay again. ##### Robert P.

We were off the beaten path by design to view Northern Lights without light conjestion. We had incredible sightings!! Heidrun was wonderful. Would recommend without hesitation! Family had the best holiday!! Plan to come back in the summer months for a full prospective of the incredible ICELAND!!!! ##### Cheryl B.

Owners really have made a beautiful and peaceful home away from home. Very clean, super comfortable beds, great kitchen space in open living area. Views of dramatic scenery at every turn. Appreciated the blackout curtains in bedrooms and the hot tub was awesome especially after a long day of hiking. Lots of towels and wash clothes and the outdoor shower was a bonus!! Great place to explore western Iceland. My family really enjoyed our stay and were sad to leave such a lovely place. ##### mary a.

My family and I spent a week in Iceland and absolutely loved it. The house was extremely clean, modern and had ample space to relax after a long day of sightseeing. My kids especially liked all of the "tech" hookups...iHome, Bose speakers, etc. Our hosts provided us with a great list of attractions near by...these gorgeous waterfalls are within walking distance! We truly enjoyed staying at this house and wish we could have stayed in Iceland longer. Thank you to our wonderful hosts...your home is beautiful! ##### John H.

My wife and I (76 and 77) stayed here for 7 nights, The accommodation was lovely, bed comfortable, kitchen provisions excellent, nice hot tub (though we only used it twice), DVDs easy to watch on large screen. It has one bathroom but a small guesthouse with another bath. Only one mile from Glanni Falls. This facility is in the center of West Iceland and enabled us to make day trips in several different directions to see things like the Golden Circle, Reykjavik, and the Snaefellsnes Peninsula. In all, it helped make our trip outstanding. We highly recommend this facility! ##### Dr. Art D. Stayed 7 nights in May 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amy L. 9 May 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### All we wanted and more This was an excellent location for our adult family of 8 (4 couples) to relax and enjoy each other’s company between amazing excursions. The location provides convenient access to Reykjavik, parts of the Golden Circle and Western Iceland. We had plenty of space and the amenities were great! Lots of towels, a well stocked kitchen, fireplace, big windows everywhere, and fantastic outdoor living space including a hot tub that was used daily. Communication with the hosts was excellent and the surroundings were amazing. There is a beautiful waterfall just minutes walk away, springs burbling up out of the ground, a volcanic crater and more. Highly recommend. ##### Amy L.

It is beautiful, modern, clean and cozy. My husband and I stayed here in January. The kitchen is well stocked and comfortable. The open floor plan with a wood burning stove adds to the modern charm. The floor heat kept the temperature in the house very comfortable. We loved the outdoor hot tub where we were able to see the northern lights. The washer and dryer allowed us to pack more lightly. The owners were the most gracious hosts we have encountered through VRBO and responded to questions very quickly. You won’t regret booking this home. ##### David W.
