About this property

Great house on the Golden Circle. Amazing Hot Tub, SPA, BBQ and Northern Lights

The Space and the surroundings

The main house has three bedrooms for up to 6 people. One bedroom has two single beds and a closet, one has a double bed with no closet and one has a double bed which can be taken apart to make to single beds and a closet. This gives opportunity for different combinations of groups to choose this house.

The guest house has a double bed with private bathroom with shower. The guest house is completely separated from the main building. Please note if you want to rent the guest house as well you must select 8 guests.

The house is very well equipped. It has a spacious living room and a very good and fully furnished kitchen with a dishwasher and everything needed to make delicious meals made from fresh Icelandic products. A gas stove and an American double fridge. Washing machine and a dryer are in the main bathroom so this house is ideal for longer stays. There is a television in the living room and in 1 bedroom as well. To add to that there is free Wi-Fi so travelers can stay well connected throughout their stay.

On the patio is a large Weber propane barbecue. We offer SPA treatments on the patio with hot tub, Infrared sauna cabin and a cold tub where travelers can enjoy the midnight sun (during summer) or northern lights (during winter) and rest weary bones after sightseeing during the day.
On the lower deck is a fire place and a grate space to sit in the sun during the summer. There is also a trampoline.

This south Iceland holiday house is perfectly located to serve as a base for day tours around the southern and western part of Iceland. It is located within the Golden Circle so sights such as Thingvellir national park, Gullfoss waterfall, Geysir geothermal area and Kerið crater are all within an hours drive from the house.

Less than 20 minutes drive from the house is Route 1, better known as the Iceland Ringroad. From there you could venture further south along the southern shore to see sights such as Reynisdrangar, Reynisfjara or visit Vík village. Further south you'll find Skaftafell national part and the famous Vatnajokull glacial lagoon as well as many other magnificent landmarks.

Iceland's capital Reykjavik is under an hours drive from the holiday house so there is no reason not to take a trip there to enjoy a variety of restaurants, bars, cafe's, museums or just to take in the sights. I also recommend restaurants in the town Selfoss such as Kaffi Krús Tryggvaskáli and a food hall in the brand new and beautiful town center in Selfoss.

The western part of Iceland is also well within reach of this house. Iceland's highest waterfall Glymur is approximately 1 1/2 hours drive from the house. Snaefellsnes peninsula is 2 1/2 drive. There you can see Snafellsjokull glacier as it towers over the top of the peninsula. Also you can visit Djupalon and Hellnar as well as other interesting places.

All this makes this south Iceland Holiday House a great option for those who want to travel the country and have a comfortable stay.

Fantastisch huis, mooi centraal gelegen
Super mooi huisje met gastenverblijf. Ideaal voor 8 personen. Vooral mooie ruime woonkamer met open keuken is ideaal. De sauna en jacuzzi is na een dag hiken heerlijk. Echt een aanrader!

Super Location
Loved this house. The location couldn’t have been better for us as we explored the local area. Easy access to the volcano, hot springs, and Highway 1 South. The hot tub was so relaxing in the evenings. The owner was quick to respond if we had questions. Would have used the huge deck more in another season. It was well stocked. Thank you for sharing your house with us.
