The host was great in greeting in person. The staff was extremely helpful. Didn't know there was limited kitchenware so could not make food on own. The staff went beyond to help me sort out the problem :)

Not fancy but it works

We had the family room, which is in a basement, raw walls, nothing fancy but lots of space and beds for the whole family. Functional kitchen, wifi works well, shower as well, nothing to complain about. The stairs to go down are a very narrow spiral, not easy with large suitcases. Service is gruff but friendly, restaurant is OK, convenient since it's on site and you're far away from everything. It is pretty close to Husafell however, so if you need that kind of room for a reasonable price it's a good option. Very quiet surroundings, nice view of rolling fields.

Nice host, nice living room/ common area to sit. Did not get breakfast. The room we had was just too small. There is barely room for 2 people to unpack a suitcase or move around as there is only the space between the beds. But for 1 person, ok.

Two-night stay in late July. Very quiet location about 25 minutes from the center of Bogarnes. Despite several families with young children also staying in the house we had a very quiet stay. Dinner was excellent and, although options were more limited than other places we'd stayed, breakfast was good too. Biggest downside is the distance to Bogarnes and activities out on the peninsula. Not a deal breaker but something to keep in mind.
