Our family of 5 had a large and comfortable upstairs room at the guest house. It had a nice view of the countryside off of a small balcony. It slept 5 comfortably. The staff were pleasant and the breakfast was included and had a small variety of options that was a good size for the number of guests. The goats next door on the farm were very cute. Thank you for a lovely stay!

We had a relaxing and pleasant stay here. The rooms were comfortable and of decent size to place our luggage. I like the spacious and cosy sitting area with kitchenette. Breakfast was good and the breakfast area was nice. We took a little walk around the area and it is so peaceful. We would be happy to stay here a few days if visiting the area longer in future.

Perfectly located for us being close the Skogar area hiking that we explored. Especially pleased that there was a restaurant for dining and did not have to go searching for any after a long day of hiking. Accommodations and amenities were top notch.

Easy to park, easy to check out. Front desk staff was super helpful as we arrived past their usual hours. She took the time to call me and make sure I had received the information for our independent check-in process. Beautiful property with a small garden and fresh breakfast.
