Comfortable Guest House tucked away
Very nice room, very comfortable bedding, and the host is so hospitable and friendly. Everything is very well organized, clean, and even slippers are provided so that guests leave their shoes at the door. The whole place is spotless and the kitchen is very well equipped. Be aware that there is nothing in the area (other than a restaurant that serves lunch & dinner but NOT breakfast), so if you get stuck there with no food, you will go hungry. There are no food options for many kilometers.

The home is perfectly situated with over a 180 degree view of the most gorgeous water and landscape. The owners were just grand, breakfast was lovely. We will definitely make that a must on our next trip back to Iceland.

Honeymoon
Great view of the fjord, easy enough to find. A reasonable drive from Bjordobin (if you have a DD!) Whale watching can be found at the pier right below, if the restaurant hadn't closed for the season would have been absolutely perfect.

10/10 Exceptional

Séjour très agréable avec un hôte très sympathique. Petit bémol, nous avions réservé une chambre pour 3, 2 adultes et notre fils de 13 ans, mais il n'y avait qu'un lit. L'hôte nous a rajouté un matelas au sol, il pensait que c'était un bébé...Salle de bain et wc partagés donc il faut s'organiser mais c'est gerable. Une cuisine commune permet de se faire à manger et permet surtout de rencontrer d'autres voyageurs, ce qui est sympa.

Maison très bien équipée. Lit confortable. Notre plus grand regret c’est d’avoir choisi une chambre avec vue sur mer et au final une fois toutes les voitures garées nous n’avions plus de vue sur mer !
