Klettur Mountain View Cottage with Private Hot Tub in Peaceful West Iceland

Mountain views from the terrace. A private hot tub after a day exploring. A warm Icelandic cottage to come home to.

Welcome to Klettur, a cosy retreat for up to seven guests in the countryside of West Iceland. With three bedrooms, an inviting living area and a large terrace, it is a place for families and friends to enjoy both the adventures and the quieter moments of an Icelandic holiday.

Discover waterfalls in Borgarfjörður, make a day of the Snæfellsnes peninsula or simply stay home and enjoy the view. At Klettur, there is room in your holiday for all three.

THE WARMTH OF AN ICELANDIC SUMMERHOUSE

Built in the traditional Icelandic summerhouse style, Klettur is well insulated and comfortable throughout the year.

The open kitchen and living area keep everyone connected. Prepare breakfast while the day’s plans take shape, settle into the generous corner sofa or gather for a film after dinner.

Three cosy bedrooms offer space to rest, while Wi-Fi makes it easy to stay connected and plan your next outing. The cottage has one shared bathroom.

It is a welcoming place to take off your walking boots, unpack and feel at home.

YOUR PRIVATE HOT TUB AND TERRACE

The large terrace gives you another place to enjoy the surroundings.

Start with coffee in the fresh air, prepare dinner on the barbecue or relax in the outdoor seating with the landscape around you. A lawn beside the cottage provides room for children to play nearby.

Your private hot tub seats up to six people at a time. After a day on the road, sink into the warm water and take your time enjoying the mountain views.

In summer, linger outside in Iceland’s long evening light. During the darker months, clear skies and the right aurora conditions may bring the northern lights into view.

MEALS TOGETHER, AT YOUR OWN PACE

The kitchen is equipped for cooking and baking, with cookware and tableware for meals at home.

Enjoy a leisurely breakfast before heading out, pack lunch for a day exploring or pick up ingredients for dinner on the way back. With the kitchen open to the living area, preparing a meal keeps you part of the conversation.

Having your own cottage gives you the freedom to shape each day around your group, whether that means an early start or a slow morning together.

BORGARFJÖRÐUR: WATERFALLS, HOT SPRINGS AND HISTORY

Klettur is a countryside base for exploring the varied landscapes of Borgarfjörður.

Visit Hraunfossar, where streams emerge from the lava field, and nearby Barnafoss. See the steaming geothermal waters at Deildartunguhver, explore historic Reykholt or discover the volcanic scenery around Grábrók.

Choose a few stops for a relaxed day out, with time to enjoy the countryside along the way. Returning to the same cottage each evening lets you explore without packing up every morning.

SNÆFELLSNES: A DAY OF COASTAL DISCOVERIES

Set aside a full day for the Snæfellsnes peninsula, with its fishing villages, rugged coastline and volcanic landscapes.

Plan your route around the places that interest you most, from coastal stops to the scenery of Snæfellsjökull National Park. Give yourself time to stop along the way and choose an itinerary that suits the season and the weather.

Afterwards, return to Klettur for a meal together and a relaxing soak in your private hot tub.

BORGARNES FOR CAFÉS, DINING AND SUPPLIES

Borgarnes offers groceries, shops, cafés, restaurants and museums. Stop for lunch, explore the town or pick up something for the barbecue before returning to the countryside.

It is a useful part of staying at Klettur: access to town services, varied day trips and a peaceful place to spend your evenings.

LEAVE TIME FOR THE COTTAGE

Not every day needs a full itinerary.

Share breakfast, watch the changing light from the terrace or curl up on the sofa with a book. Let the children play on the lawn and take your time over dinner.

Between the waterfalls and coastal drives, leave room for the simple pleasure of being here together.

Beautiful home in a beautiful location. The house is not large, but is very open and comfortable and our party of six enjoyed our stay very much. The beds and linens are very comfortable. We very much appreciated the detailed and thoughtful binder with recommendations for what to do nearby. The location allowed us easy access to both Reykjavík and Snæfellsnes Penninsula, and Borgarnes itself was charming and has many amenities.

Beautiful West Iceland Vacation Rental

This was the best place we stayed during our recent trip to Iceland with 2 adults and 3 children. The location was very convenient to a variety of nearby attractions including Snaefellsness & Husafell, as well as to Borgarnes, the local town where we shopped for groceries at Netto. The kitchen was well-equipped for cooking meals during our stay and the house had everything we needed. We enjoyed the hot tub in the evenings after long days of sightseeing. Definietely would return to stay here again!

This property is really nice. The location is great for exploring Snaefelsness Peninsula. Borgarnes is the nearest town and has a few nice restaurants, a museum, and a walkable community. The home itself was clean with comfortable beds. Check in/out was easy. There is a gate going in that is worked by calling a number. The home has a lockbox and security system, though the area felt very rural and secure.

This host was extremely well prepared and communicative weeks before check-in. They were very accommodating of any needs we had and even provided a convenient packet of information about the local area. The home is beautiful, clean, and private. The hot tub was also very clean always hot. The bed gave possibly the most comfortable night's sleep I've had since I was a baby. We will keep this host in the front of our minds for the next time we travel to Iceland.

This was a great little cabin to stay in. The hot tub was very welcome after a long day of traveling and appreciated that there was coffee provided so we had that in the morning. Was nice that adult and two kids could each have their own sleeping facilities. Shampoo and conditioner were provided which was appreciated. Felt pretty isolated so if you want to be able to cook anything there make sure you stop in advance of settling in. We were there less than twelve hours because we got in very late and got going early but it was a great stay!

Quiet cabin!

Enjoyed our Klettur cabin stay. Had everything we needed for our 2 night stay. Had a little bit of trouble with the gate, but as another guest had mentioned, we had someone from the states call the provided number and it worked to open the gate. I was able to call the owners and others within Iceland without issue. But, for some reason, the number we needed to call for the gate would not work. That was our only issue. Property was as described and the area is beautiful. Would stay here again if we ever get the chance to come back!
