    Finding reception was a little confusing but we figured it out quickly

    We stayed in a cottage house and it was very cozy. It was spaced far enough from the other cottages to have privacy but the toilets and showers were still close enough.

    We had a wonderful stay in this very cozy house., Despite the small size it has everything you need. The hosts are very hospitable, everything is clean, and the beds are very comfortable.

    N/A

    We loved everything about the place, the cottage itself (with shared bathroom) was a jewel - cosy, warm, enlighted during the day and sufficiently dark for a good sleep. A fully equipped small kitchen within the cottages with a table, chairs, fantastic raised up beds, a small heating radiator, fridge, kettle, cups, plates, curlery and also apossibilty of sitting on the patio where was another set of chairs and a table. The scared bathroom and lavatory was also very warm and clean, owners have thought of every detail needed during these private time :) For us Stora Sandfell place offers a full comfort one needs when travelling through Iceland. Gladly will return, thank you !

    If anything, the bathroom was pretty cold.

    The cottages are in the woods, making the atmosphere really magic! Our cottage was tiny but it included everything we could possibly need: the bed was comfy, the kitchen simple but well equipped. The temperature was great!

    Johanna greeted us on the driveway and showed us the way to our cottage. In a few square meters of a privately located cottage, there was everything we needed for our two-night stay (and we would have liked to stay longer!). A double bed in the living area (plus a third bed that we didn't use), a table and a small kitchenette with the necessary equipment, a bathroom with a toilet and shower. Although it is clear that not all the equipment is brand new, everything was clean and cozy, carefully prepared for our arrival. A small terrace overlooking the horse paddock - we were lucky with the weather, so we used it for coffee and an evening drink. Our stay was also greatly enhanced by the opportunity to go on a horse ride with Johanna through the most beautiful Icelandic landscape you can imagine... thank you again!! We will be happy to come back. We wish all the people and animals on the farm good health... In the area, we recommend a trip to Hengifoss, walks in the Guttormslundur forest and the Vök spa.

    Nothing important. The door to the bath needs a bit of adjustment.

    Great location, friendly host and comfortable bed. Our cottage had everything we needed. It was cozy, clean and quiet. The outside seating and sofa were nice to relax on.
