Finnstaðir guest house is 3 km from the town of Egilsstadir. Egilsstaðir Airport is 7 km from the property.

The house is right outside the town of Egilsstadir, very easy to find. We were met by a very friendly owner and his two lovely dogs. He was extremely helpful and the house was truly a gem! Decorated with old-style furniture, but very cosy, clean and it has a hot tub outside with an amazing view! We wish we could have stayed longer and can definitely recommend it for anyone wanting to spend time at East Iceland!

Set on an organic farm, Móðir Jörð Organic Farm Guesthouse in Vallanes offers accommodation in Vallanes. Free private parking is available on site.

You can engage in various activities, such as fishing and hiking. The nearest airport is Egilsstaðir Airport, 11 km from Móðir Jörð Organic Farm Guesthouse in Vallanes.

We booked for two nights and wished we could have stayed much longer. This place is a true gem! The host was very kind, professional and gave us plenty of local tips, wonderful! The cabin was incredibly cosy, surrounded by beautiful woods and incredible organic food from the farm. The location is perfectly situated to visit East Fjords of Iceland. We were on a road trip for our honeymoon and stayed across multiple accommodations, this was by far our favourite.

    Pleasant guesthouse in a quiet, nice location near the lake. It has 4 bedrooms and 2 shared bathrooms and it can get quite busy. The kitchen has everything you need but the common area is quite small, so hard to have more than 1 group in there.

    The guesthouse was our favourite in Iceland (out of 10 accomodations). The room was large and quiet, and the kitchen was very well furnished. Everything was extremely clean. The guesthouse is situated just outside of Egillstadir, and it was a very convenient place to sleep while travelling towards Höfn. I can recommend this place to anyone, and I would surely rebook it.
