8/10 Good
"Studio room with limited, but adequate kitchen facilities for our needs. Bathroom was down stairs, which wasn't what my wife would prefer. There is a sky light that opens for ventilation -- but no other window to look out (like to see what the weather is like). Sloped ceiling, so I hit my head a few times trying to get down to the location of the bed. Some traffic noise, especially as we had the skylight window open through the night.We still enjoyed our stay here. Convenient location on Vagar island - by airport, for part of our trip to the Faroe Islands!"

"This is my second trip to the Faroe Islands and I’ve stayed in the same area both times. This property was stunning! Very easy to get around from this location. The hosts were very communicative and easy to deal with. We had no troubles at all. I highly recommend this house. It was beautiful!We were able to easily get in to Torsvan for dinners and lunches when we wanted, and we also went to the grocery store and cooked wonderful meals at home.The views and proximity to the ocean was perfect."

10/10 Excellent
"It was a beautiful stay. We loved staying in the smaller town, great easy hikes all around, super walkable. The bus stop is right down the hill and easy to reach from all the surrounding cities. I recommend renting a car, as the bus schedule can be limited and taxis can be very pricey. The house was so amazing, I would recommend caution as the stairs are quite steep and could be hazardous for anyone with mobility issues. All in all, amazing. Thank you!"

10/10 Excellent
"We had a fantastic stay at Osla's cottage. The location is absolutely amazing....the scenery from every windows is just a postcard. Kitchen has everything you need to cook your meals...plus the owners were kind enough to leave us coffee, tea and all the essentials for the first few days. Beds are so comfortable but the serenity of the area/village is what it makes the place so magical. Plus you have hikes right across the road! I can think of just one thing...coming back soon!!! Thank you again for sharing your beautiful place with us. Lili&Adrian "

Tranquil Village Retreat | Tjørnuvík

8/10 Good
"On the day I checked in, there were a few issues—the hairdryer was broken, the lights didn’t work, and the Wi-Fi was down. However, after I contacted the host, everything was fixed by the next day. The room was smaller than I expected, but the kitchen was fully equipped with all the utensils and even seasonings, so I didn’t need to buy anything. Just make sure to bring your own cooking oil! There were cafés and a beach nearby, and the views were beautiful. The drive to get there was fun, and I even got to hike to a waterfall close by."
