Enjoyable stay out of town

Out of town, but the restaraunt is great for a meal & the breakfast quite satisfying. You can walk around the cemetery & there is a little cute church there as well.

What a lovely guesthouse! Right on the lake, spacious rooms with comfortable beds and decent bathrooms, a kitchen for cooking or warming food, comfy sofas in the lounge area and a great breakfast. The owner was very friendly on check in and at breakfast. 5 out of 5!

This is a family-run guesthouse, situated on their farm that is on a lovely lake. The guesthouse was clean and safe, albeit a bit spartan. Nonetheless, it had everything we needed. There is a shared kitchen for the guests to use and we made our own dinner, as there are no restaurants we found close by. Breakfast is provided. While a bit off the beaten path, the location was lovely and a great place for hikers and those exploring off the main highway. The check in/out process was very easy and the young lady who greeted us was very kind and helpful.

Room, bathroom, and shared areas (kitchen, living space) very clean. Check in was easy, somehow check in person knew when we arrived and met us at the outside door. However, the description incorrectly indicated breakfast was available, and there are no places nearby to get breakfast.

It is slightly remote but there is staff living next door so you can just go knock on their door. Serene surroundings. No breakfast. Expedia site said breakfast available for fee, which is not correct. There is a big kitchen if you want to bring food and cook.

A nice quest house that was bit off the beaten track. It was nice and clean and quiet. I had thought breakfast was included but it was not. We had food with us so it wasn't a big deal. The shared kitchen was very nice.

It’s by a small lake, very quiet, with beautiful lake views. Our group of 8 people shared kitchen and dinning area among ourselves. Each room has own bathroom. Breakfast is provided with no charge. Check in and out are very easy. Thanks for a very nice stay.

The guesthouse was lovely, well laid out with the shared kitchen, dinning area and entertainment area. Heaps of space, rooms are clean and very impressed with the cleanliness of the rooms and shared areas! There is a huge area on the accommodation location to explore to see sheep and Icelandic horses next to a lake! Me and my husband had a good afternoon doing that once we settled into our rooms. Would recommend to others 👍

Rolig, rent og hyggelig

Meget rent og koselig sted, der man kan bestille frokost, eller ete medbrakt mat. Det er en stol på nobelt rom, skulle gjerne vært to stoler der, ellers er alt faktisk perfekt👍

peaceful lake

Beautiful location on a quiet lake with horses nearby (and sheep farther away). Room and bathroom were spartan and clean. Large kitchen and supplies to prepare your own meals (which you may want to do since this is fairly isolated).
