Cottage holiday rentals in Iceland

It is the great place for family, you can see the aurora at night and enjoy the day with hot stub outside the cabin. Highly recommend this place.

We had an amazing stay at this cozy cabin. Host was very responsive and easy to get into the cabin. It is remote but not too far away from town, which was lovely to get a very quiet and private experience, and quite comfortable. Nice to have space to cook some meals in combination with eating out. We were able to see the northern lights since only other small cabin lights around, and no major light pollution. Very convenient to get to many attractions on the south island. Highly recommend!

The place was our last stop before going to Reykjavik. Great equipped with everything you need. It is also perfect as a base camp for explorations in the corner, as Holmavik is easily accessible with a supermarket and a liquor store. We were even lucky enough to see the northern lights with a glass of wine in the hot tub. Highly recommended

It was incredible to have so much space on our trip. The kitchen was well appointed and we were able to cook our own meals without issue. The hot tub was a great bonus! My only gripes were the tight bathroom, non functioning TV, and no ice cube tray (minor, I know). Overall would highly recommend!

Amazing stay! The location was unbeatable and the house was absolutely perfect, comfortable, clean, and had everything we needed. One of the highlights was relaxing in the hot tub at night, looking up at the sky hoping to catch a glimpse of the northern lights, and we did! Seeing them for the first time from the hot tub made the whole experience unforgettable. Everything combined made our stay truly special. Highly recommend this place!

Checkin was a breeze and Alfa was extremely helpful throughout our entire stay. Truly a beautiful home with everything you need, especially if you’re traveling with kids. Views from the home are absolutely stunning and the interior is very warm and welcoming. My family and I enjoyed our stay and would absolutely love to visit again.

An amazing peaceful retreat, yet close enough for all the sightseeing we wanted to do.. dark skies provided an amazing opportunity to see the Northern lights!

Absolutely loved our stay! The host was 5-star—thoughtful, responsive, and made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing visit. The place was spotless and so well-equipped. The mattress was incredibly comfortable and the hot tub was an amazing touch that made the stay feel extra special. Highly recommend!

Cabin was great. Clean, nice, well stocked. We enjoyed our stay. The only real improvement would be exterior lighting. There are no exterior lights, so it was hard to find after dark.

We had a magical stay at Sjornohall! The unique setting amongst the moss covered pseudo-craters feels like it’s from a movie and the views of the Northern Lights were breathtaking. The locations makes a great base for visiting Vik, as well as visiting the National Park with ice cave tours. Audur is thoughtful, kind, and very responsive. She even let my kids meet her chickens, horses, and dogs which was a highlight of our stay for them. The house had every amenity we could have needed, as well as many unique extra touches. We hope to return again some day!

Stinas cottage was exactly as advertised. Not far from town but a nice quiet secluded place to see the northern lights. Our host was super helpful and friendly. Great jumping off point for the southern coast

I have such happy memories of our time in Kristján’s cabin. It feels more like staying at a friend's place as there is such character throughout the home. It's ideal for 'hunkering down' amid stunning scenery. We loaded up on duty free wine and plenty of food at Bonus and spent our evenings cooking, chatting and playing games. There are plenty of cooking ingredients K is happy to share. The cabin is ideal for a digital detox and cutting yourself off from the world - although it also has excellent wi-fi. It's worth noting there aren't many restaurants locally - this is truly the wilderness. There are plenty of amazing things to see locally by car. Highlights include: Eiríksstaðir - Viking Longhouse - Sofie is an amazing storyteller and host Daytrip around Snæfellsjökull National Park Guðrúnarlaug Hot-tub Café Riis Hólmavík - Restaurant - Pizzeria & Bar & also Museum of Icelandic Sorcery and Witchcraft Kristján's cabin is a truly one-of-a-kind and memorable stay.

A quiet and peaceful location. Great view overseeing Akureyri town.

We had a lovely 2 days at this place. It was all still very new and clean and looked exactly like the pictures. In addition, the kitchen was superbly equipped. We explored the Golden Circle from there.

We came to Iceland for Northern Lights. This is a rustic cabin on the farm perfect for seeing Northern Lights at night…at the comfort of the cabin. Sveinn is hospitable and a responsive communicator. The cabin is remote, away from city light pollution, but a few restaurants and a grocery store are about a 5 minute drive in this small town. For 3 consecutive nights, we saw Northern Lights on the back porch with wine, dessert and hot chocolate without having driving to somewhere else. It is cold and windy in south Iceland. But staying at this cabin, you can get inside to warm up…then go back outside to enjoy Northern Lights in the sky. Would return again.

Very satisfied with a trip, the scenery around the house is good, the heating system of the house is a little noisy, but the heater is very full, the host is very responsive, recommended!

Wishlist for this large accommodation, cozy, both traditional and modern decoration, a top-notch crib, a great place to shine in snaefelsness halfway between Stykkishólmur and Grundafjordur. Our son loved feeding the beautiful sheep with Gudlaug. We recommend to families (suitable equipment, toys, everything is there!).

This place is a slice of Goth Heaven. Isolated, dramatic and beautiful! You will need a 4x4 to get here in winter - the ice on the road is no joke - but it's completely worth it. If you're considering it, just do it!!

Cozy little spot with everything we needed. Directions to the cabin from the host were very useful. Thanks!

Had a fantastic stay at Gunnar's cottage. Everything we needed was at hand in the cottage. It was warm and cozy and and perfect for relaxing in the evening. We used the hot tub a couple of times and it was great. Managed to see the northern lights during our stay and it's a perfect location for seeing them and travelling around the Golden circle. Would definitely stay again.

We had a wonderful stay at this pristine cottage with beautiful surroundings. The cottage was cozy and comfortable. Kitchen had everything we needed and we enjoyed our stay. Host was responsive and friendly. Would love to be back here.

My husband and I wanted to get away from the city and out in the country. This was the perfect place for us. The scenery around the cabin is breathtaking. We enjoyed the hottub and we're also able to view the Northern Lights on a few nights. The amenities inside were perfect and just what we needed. I was a little apprehensive about the shower being outside in a separate building, at first, but the water was hot and the pressure was excellent. Our stay was perfect and the communication with Vidar was top notch. Such a beautiful place.

Enjoy your stay in this cabin in the snow

Brus Guesthouse is very quiet with stunning views. We felt very comfortable.
