We stayed in one of the cabins bc it could accommodate our family of five. It was very helpful to have a kitchen (made breakfast in the morning) and the set up of the cabin was convenient for our family. Staff was very friendly and helpful, too!

The eco pods are cute but not as comfortable as a hotel room. Little things like no trash can in the bathroom or toilet paper holder, tissues, a shelf for your things, a sink that is big enough to fill the coffee pot they provide in the room, faucets that are loose, or even a window that doesn’t fog over between the double panes of glass, or a proper walkway to the pods that are under construction added up to small annoyances. This is awesome for a step up from camping, but falls short on standard hotel practices. The staff was friendly, and the farm is quaint. The pod itself was clean. But the lack of signage or directions on where and when the reception is open and where to park added to the frustration of the long journey around the complex looking for both where to check in and how to get back to the pods.

We were only here for a quick stay after hiking on Sólheimajökull, but the staff were very pleasant and helpful and the chalet was clean and warm. We’re contemplating a return to ride the horses.

We were expecting more of a farm experience but we just got a little lodge on the farm. There wasn't really anyone around or anyone to contact about any potential farm activities. It was a nice stay but if you're looking for any type of farm activity, you might want to stay somewhere else.

Comfortable and clean cabin

The cottage was beautiful with an open layout. Beds were comfortable, and with a fully equipped kitchen. Their WiFi didn’t work for us. Wish they include amenities like coffee and creamer. Bathroom is so small, there is no trash can, they ran out of hand soap, and the microwave is oddly located, so far up a cabinet that it’s hard to reach. Overall we still had a comfortable stay.

Really Lovely

Good points- Diana who seems to do absolutely everything, is AMAZING. She is so attentive and engaging, a real asset to this place and full of knowledge. Wifi in cottages is RAPID. Beds are super comfortable. Showers, although on a limited supply of hot water, are very hot! Restaurant for evening meals-delicious! Room for improvement- We felt that breakfast was limited. Coffee was like Diesel LOL. A booklet on the runnings of the cottage would have been useful, wifi is located here, water in shower works like this (and the limited supply, etc) and perhaps some incidentals, like milk, tea etc, or the option to buy them ready for our arrival would have been a useful add on. Overall we would stay again!

Once we got to our cabin and fully unloaded and set ourselves up for the night, we used our bathroom and couldn't flush the toilet. We hiked over to report this. Forty minutes later someone showed up and said they are unable to fix it. They said we could move, but it was after 8:00 pm. We went with no toilet. We left before anyone was at the reception. We feel very short-changed. We deserve a big discount. I hope they decide to reimburse my credit card.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Upon checking in, we were told that we could only order beer or wine, since no one there is a “bartender”. We were not told anything regarding the Restaurant, however a couple that checked in after us were asked if they would be having super. When entering the cottage, the disappointment was overwhelming. The cottage had “spider webs” all throughout, the couch was extremely stained, the linens (using this term loosely) were extremely old and very dingy. Moving onto the bathroom, the toilet handle had to be held down for at least 10-15 seconds to flush, sink would not drain, mirror is the size of a small plate and we would have felt cleaner using a bucket instead of that ridiculous shower. Everything from the reception area to rooms were extremely outdated, dingy and not clean. We do not complain often, however for the price we paid, it was most definitely NOT worth it.

Could do with some tlc.

Cabin was in poor condition on the outside, could do with a clean and new paint. Bedding was worn with broken fasteners. No black out on door window. Shower area dirty with hair and grime. Definitely not worth what is charged. On a positive in a lovely quiet spot of the countryside. Has the potential to be a lovely little cabin with some tlc.

The little cottages were nice and cozy. Dinner was limited, but we had two types of soup which were just what we needed and the homemade bread was to die for. Service was very friendly.

Cabin was spacious, clean, comfortable in a quiet secluded location. Views out of the cabin of surrounding mountains were beautiful. Definitely a peaceful, rejuvenating place to spend a couple of nights. Our only complaint were the houseflies. Being from a farm area in the US, we know that with farms come flies. But by the end of the two days the number of flies became a bit annoying -- the staff need to do something to reduce this problem.

The property is located in a very picturesque setting. The cabin was OK, the sheets were not cleaned well, locally there were other clean beds to use. The staff at the front desk was very nice and helpful. Size of the cabin was spacious for 2 people, however it lacked a canopy over the front door to take advantage of the long day, as it was raining. Overall it was a nice stay, close proximity to off-roading and other sites.
