Cute cottage up on a hill
Fabulous cottage with everything we needed but had to call the owners to ask for the information to be emailed to us so we could get in when we arrived.

8/10 Very good

If you want to add to your adventure and are willing to not just be in hotels, don't over-look this option. After a long drive and poor conditions we arrived later to the cabin. The communication to get in spot on, the conditions were really good and it had everything a person needed. The evening had crazy high winds and I thought the cabin may blow over with the campers outside but it was warm and comfy. Wi fi and TV worked great, kitchen set up was good enough if you're staying more than one night. It's not for everone but it was great and a conversation piece for afterwards. Great experience.

Good cottage, but a bit small
Cottage is in very good condition, but just a bit small, particularly for the bathroom. The size of cottage is also a bit tight if you have 3 people when you have large luggges.

Cozy cabin with everything necessary to cook dinner. Nice living room area, kitchen, and comfortable bed. Close to canyon waterfall, rock formations, and seal beach.

Very cute stay. The room was nice and private with everything we needed. The curtains did not really do much to prevent the midnight sun from coming directly into the sleeping area but we made do by hanging some extra coats, towels and sheets to block the direct sun.

Overnight stay
Cottage was as shown on booking site. Compact with suitable amenities. Very warm overnight and could not turn heating down. Booked as part of a circle drive. Did book incorrect date and discovered this soon after. Email to cottages to request a change went unanswered. I respect that no cancellation but to change to a next day date should not have been a problem. This meant I had to reorganise my trip. Wifi good. A little out of town.

2/10 Poor

Terrible stay in cottage with bed bugs
There was a huge problem with our stay that was BED BUGS! All three beds were full of bed bugs that did not allow all of us to sleep. We all got many bites all over our bodies. The host did not respond to our complaint. I have one more point to note: the Barbecue grill is specified in property amenities, but there were no any Barbecue grill.

2/10 Poor

*** Worst place we stayed during our 10-day trip in Iceland *** The cottage smelled very strongly of fish as soon as we walked in. I like to eat fish, but this was overwhelming and, frankly, disgusting. We couldn't find the source of the smell, so we couldn't try to clean it up ourselves. The smell was so bad that some of my clothes that were in my suitcase still smelled of fish 10 days later EVEN AFTER WE LEFT ICELAND! I texted the contact for the property, and they just told us too bad because there was no other cottage available to which they could move us. I understand if they don't have an available cottage, they don't have an available cottage. However, they didn't even offer us a discount on the cost of our stay. The fact that someone went into the cottage and changed the sheets (I assume) and cleaned it (presumably) and didn't bother to clean up a smell that bad and didn't even open windows to air the place out makes me wonder how thoroughly the entire cottage was actually cleaned. Stay anywhere else if you have the choice!

The check in did not go well. We did not recieve the email with the code to get in. We had to call expedia who reached out to the property manager and gave us lock box code. The cottages are very neat and well equipped.
