Our house is a magnificent old converted school house in the rural lowlands of south of Iceland.

We are close to the beach and the mountains, and all amenities are a 10 min drive away.
We are ideal for any kind of group travel or gatherings: family, friends, students, geologists, birdwatchers, horse lovers, walkers, cyclists, fishing enthusiasts, book-clubs, girls trips, boys trips, seminars, training and team building...
Or your group basically.
The house has an amazing spirit. Everyone feels good in it.
The air is so pure; stand outside and breath it in, inhale the vastness of the sky!
We love it and are sure that you will too!
