The stay at the cottages was extremely comfortable, with a stream running by and moutains you can relax at this place. They had good wifi connection and when reached out for help, the person on-line was helpful. We enjoyed our stay.

Pleasant cabin.

Nice cabin in a fairly secluded location. It was clean, well-kept and nicely equipped. Four sharing was acceptable, but a little tight on space although the beds were very comfortable.

Excellent property. Great views and you can walk to town. Excellent restaurant in town- Sjavarborg. Perfect for 3 people. The only negative is no shampoo/ soap in shower because container was empty. Otherwise highly recommend.

The check in did not go well. We did not recieve the email with the code to get in. We had to call expedia who reached out to the property manager and gave us lock box code. The cottages are very neat and well equipped.

Overnight stay

Cottage was as shown on booking site. Compact with suitable amenities. Very warm overnight and could not turn heating down. Booked as part of a circle drive. Did book incorrect date and discovered this soon after. Email to cottages to request a change went unanswered. I respect that no cancellation but to change to a next day date should not have been a problem. This meant I had to reorganise my trip. Wifi good. A little out of town.

Lovable cottages in a remote lookinh although accessible area. In my case, some linen eas missing. I guess we all make mistakes. Nothing serious.

Really nice cottages. The cottage was well stocked, with kettle, microwave and things for making a quick meal. Bedding was nice and warm, and it's walking distance to the pool :)

Container à touristes comme il en existe des dizaines en Islande. Pour celui-ci : sol sale, vaisselle sale, distributeur de savon vide... lit minuscule (lit double qui serait considéré comme un lit simple dans un autre pays). Réfrigérateur très bruyant toute la nuit, aucun moyen de couper la lumière du jour en été. Village pauvre et peu accueillant. Pas de vrai douche, le sol est vite trempé devant les toilettes. Environnement calme.
