    Amazing location! The stars and Northern Lights at night were amazing. Right by the seal beach. Great breakfast, lovely owners, peaceful place.

    Great location. Nestled against the mountains on the south coast of Snafelsness Peninsula looking out at the Atlantic. Very comfortable room with heated floor and extremely quiet. Good breakfast.

    SImple, good value for the money, easy to reach from the main road. The rooms are a bit older, but well maintained and clean. Parking lot is big enough, no problem to find a place. Restaurant is cozy, reasonably priced.

Our Guesthouse is perfectly located between mountains and sea. Our family's goal is to share our culture and folklore with travelers from all around the world staying at our guesthouse, with comfort, cleanliness and a smile.
We are a family of horse riders. Our guesthouse is close to our farm which has many horses and foals, which you´re more than welcome to come and cuddle. We offer horseback riding tours with private guide.
A natural swimming pool with a fantastic view on the mountains is just 2 minutes walking distance from the guesthouse. Ytritunga, the famous beach where you can see seals is only 5 minutes driving, the Snæfellsjoküll glacier is 20 minutes driving and is visible from our guesthouse when the sky is clear. Hiking trails are in the mountain behind the guesthouse and the beach is only 2 minutes driving. In the middle of Snæfellsnes peninsula, our guesthouse is perfectly located between mountains, sea, black beaches, volcano and glacier.
