Valey Countryside Escape is now open for bookings from May first 2026\. Valey Countryside Escape is a private countryside accommodation located on a working farm in Hvammstangi, northern Iceland. The house is thoughtfully designed for comfort and privacy, offering a calm and welcoming space where guests can truly unwind. Large windows bring the surrounding landscape indoors, filling the space with natural light and open views. The property is surrounded by open fields, fresh air, and the quiet rhythm of rural life. Icelandic horses often graze nearby, adding to the authentic farm atmosphere. The location offers a rare sense of space and stillness, while remaining conveniently close to local services. The town of Hvammstangi is just a short drive away, with restaurants, cafés, shops, and essential amenities. Valey is an ideal base for exploring the region. Nearby attractions include the Icelandic Seal Center, coastal walking trails, black sand beaches, and scenic viewpoints along the Vatnsnes peninsula. In winter, the area is well suited for northern lights viewing thanks to minimal light pollution and wide, open skies. Valey Countryside Escape is owned and operated by Valey ehf., a small, family-run Icelandic company focused on quality, care, and a personal approach to hosting. As hosts, we value clear communication, attention to detail, and creating a stay that feels both comfortable and genuine. Guests can expect a well-prepared home, thoughtful touches, and local knowledge if needed — while always respecting privacy.
