A friendly old farmhouse built in 1926, that has been renovated. There are no animals anymore, but a horse rental is only a 2 minutes walk.
A peaceful surrounding with a crystal clear salmon river (a fishing license needed) right by the house.
Located in the countryside
close only a 2-3 minutes drive from Hólmavík village, which has several attractions, an excellent geothermal pool, a supermarket and a couple of good restaurants.

The space
The room is on the 2nd floor. You enter through the main door and enter the hallway. To the right are the kitchen and dining room and the toilet and shower. The bedroom is upstairs, in the middle. It has two beds, both of them are 105 x 200 cm.
The room has a big bright window with a fantastic view. There are shades in case you have problems sleeping in the midnight sun.
The whole house is being renovated and is in good condition. There may still be work going on when you get here but we try our best not to disturb our guests.
Guest access
You can use the kitchen on the main floor for making small meals. Guests can share the refrigerator.
In the end of the hall is a small laundry room. You can use the washing machine and dryer outside cleaning hours (9:00-16:00) upon request.
We like to recycle as much as possible. We have 8 different clearly marked bins for waste plus the general waste. It’s our goal that nothing goes in the general waste!
Iceland has the best water in the world and we claim to have the best water in Iceland, right from the tap. Just try it if you don’t believe us!
Other things to note
Larger groups traveling together please note: We have two other rooms in the same house so we can accommodate up to 6 persons

Location
Hólmavík, Iceland
We are located near In the countryside close to Hólmavík village. A beautiful salmon river runs by the house, but a fishing license must be obtained.
We have great opportunities for hiking and a horse-rental is only 2-3 minutes walk from the house.
Hólmavík has two great restaurants and a hamburger stand, an excellent warm swimming pool and a hospital.
The unique Museum of Sorcery and Witchcraft is a must-visit
and Hólmavík is probably the best place in Iceland to go whale-watching.
We are pretty centrally located for doing day-tours in different directions. We have several interesting places to visit. Reykhólar, a 40 min drive to the south, with its algae-baths, an exhibition of open boats and Either-down, which is used in the best duvets in the world.
Djúpavík, an hour's drive to the north, is a fascinating old herring factory with an amazing history. A little further north is Kört, a small but interesting museum of local handicrafts and a wonderful museum shop.
Bjarnarfjörður is only a half hours drive with a natural geothermal pools, one of them is from around 1200. The Sorcerer's hut is a turf house newly built to give an idea of how people lived right until the 20th century.
In late August, the berries are ripe. Taking a walk in our hills and picking berries is a fun experience.

An open minded and friendly guy who loves diversity. I love theater and music, motorcycles and flying, travelling and reading. I really like trying food from different countries and learning about different cultures.
During your stay
I work in Hólmavík and can be reached by phone, text or email. I'm sometimes pretty busy, but I when I have time I would gladly help by pointing out interesting things to do.
