    The most beautiful accommodation we had during our Iceland roundtrip! This cottage has everything you need and more, including a beautiful view! The interior is beautiful and makes you feel at home. Everything is very comfortable. The hosts are extremely kind and they have two very playful dogs, which made our short stay even better :) We would recommend everyone to stay here and we will surely come here again!

    Our stay here was among the very best of the whole trip. A small cottage for us. No noise of neighbours. Beside the montains. Just 15 minutes from Skogafoss. A small and wonderful little church nearby. 2 great dogs (from owner) my son could play with. We loved it so much !!

    Our kids liked the loft sleeping area. The cottage was so cute and comfortable on a quiet farm setting. There were places for storage and making breakfast - it was exactly what we needed! Oversized towels were extra soft, as were the sheets. We appreciated the small details to make the cottage inviting and pleasant.

    Nothing! It was great!

    Beautiful setting in a rural farming location. A lovely, self-contained chalet with all you need for a short stay - although I wanted to stay longer! Friendly hosts, who leave you to it - and their very friendly dogs cheered me after a long day's driving. Comfortable beds and cosy lighting, with a private outdoor seating area that was very welcome. Good information ahead of time to access the lock box.

    Although it has four beds, I'm not sure a family of 3/4 would stay for more than 1/2 nights.

    A lovely modern cottage or tiny house on surrounded by super friendly sheep farmer families. We felt at home immediately and were lucky to have booked the same location travelling back and forth the south coast. Very close to Seljalandsfoss, Skogafoss and Solheimasandur plane wreck. Arrive early and have a walk in the beautifull lush and desolate canyons right past the house. Ideal for couple or family with one or two kids. We'd now recommend to book few days in a row to roam the area.

    The hosts were incredibly friendly, and the house was well-equipped with everything we needed, as well as being spotless. The location was ideal and very peaceful.

    Great little cabin that was comfortable and quiet. Nestled on a working farm with two awesome dogs that were great hosts as well (friendly and playful). Recommend that you bring your own food as it’s a fair bit of a drive to the nearest restaurant.

    Property response:

    Thank you for your review. The nearest restaurant is just over the field 😉

    The location provides spectacular views. Kitchen was well equipped. Bedding was exceptionally comfortable.

    The chalet is small and felt a little cramped for 3 adults (specially in the loft area which has very low ceiling) but it is consistent w the small spaces typical of the area. But the lack of space was far outweighed by the comfort, cleanliness and outstanding location.

    Amma Jona is the coziest little cottage. Spotless clean and comfortable with a stunning view you can enjoy through the enormous window. Hosts went out of their way to make us feel comfortable.

    attractive property, well designed, in a lovely location with views across the fields. Everything that was advertised was there. The farmhouse/hotel next door (east) has a very nice restaurant. A 5 minute walk across the fields. Kitchen was also very useable and we appreciated oil and few essentials available. We never saw the owners but that wasn’t an issue. We were able to phone them. We liked the dogs even though they are interested in you only as long as you throw a stick for them.

    A washing machine would have been fantastic. We really struggled to find any self contained places in Iceland that had a washing machine.

    Property response:

    Hello, thank you for your review. We can definitely recommend for example laundromat in Hvolsvöllur, it is the closest public laundromat from us.
