Tolle Unterkunft mit gutem Frühstück

Sehr gemütliche Unterkunft, schön warm, ruhige Lage mitten im Lavafeld, tolles reichhaltiges Frühstück war schon bei unserer Ankunft im Kühlschrank und für den nächsten Tag wurde wieder aufgefüllt. Es gab 3 Brotsorten, Käse, Schinken, Salami, Wurst, 2 Marmeladen, Butter, Milch, Filterkaffee, Tee, Cerealien, Orangensaft, Apfelsaft, Tomaten, Gurke, Obst, Skyr. Echt toll. Haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Für den Hot Tub waren wir leider immer zu müde von unseren Tagesausflügen. Hat aber auch sehr einladend ausgesehen :)

Das Schlafsofa war leider etwas unbequem und die Abdunkelung war im Wohnzimmer nicht so gut möglich, es war trotz Plissee sehr hell in der Nacht. Für uns trotzdem ein schöner Aufenthalt :)

Eldhraun Holiday Home is a clean, comfortable, and inviting place!

Private hot tub Living area had good seating and a TV Shower had shelves for toiletries (This was the only place we stayed on the Ring Road that had a private hot tub and just a couple have had shower shelves and/or a TV)

It would have been nice to have a freezer section in the fridge to keep our bag of ice for our cooler frozen.

Exceptional

Beautiful and well-designed wooden cabin with a hot tub. Everything was clean and a lot of thought had been put into the cabin design. It was really helpful to have washing up liquid, tea towel, oil and salt and pepper in the kitchenette.

This cabin would be perfect for 2 people for a few nights. It was fine for 4 people for 1 night but we would have struggled for longer due to the small space and paper blinds which let the light in in the lounge with the sofa bed.

Very comfortable, quiet, remote, and stylish lodging.

We stayed at cabin number 2 (there are a total of three cabins as of this writing on the property), which is a beautiful cabin built by the owners themselves. It was clean, airy (despite its small footprint), tastefully decorated and well furnished. All cabins are equipped with a jacuzzi. We did not have the chance to enjoy ours, but according to the guest book in our cabin, it is a big hit with other guests. All amenities functioned as expected (e.g., wifi, kitchen appliances, etc.). We understand that during the right season, this property would be a good spot to view aurora borealis, but we were there during summer. Owners are a couple with several children and live on the property. We did not need to have have any lengthy interactions with them. Everything was organized for guests to get to their cabin smoothly without having to interact with the owners, which was perfectly fine for us. Recognizing the relatively remoteness of the property, the owners do offer some basic conveniences and basic grocery options for purchase. Indeed, guests wishing to make pasta or their own basic meals can purchase the necessary ingredients from the owners (there is a menu of sort available listing what could be purchased). We did not partake in this offering. Definitely consider bringing your own groceries if you want to cook so you'll have more options, because the kitchen is well equipped and the dining table in our unit was large. Breakfast is offered but as expected must be requested in advance. It seemed pricy to us but based on the description and photos available in the cabin it is substantial. We opted to skip the breakfast... so we cannot comment on how tasty/filling it would have been!

The property is fairly remote and located to the south of Eldhraun Lava fields. We could only locate one restaurant in the general vicinity (30 min drive). While the cabin was great, we were hoping for more pleasing/unique sceneries. The scenery, at least from the cabin we stayed at, and I suspect all the other ones, is that of a flat farmland/grazing ground/owner's house. It would be a good place to catch the northern lights due to the flatness of the terrain. As a side note, for reasons not totally clear to me, we encountered the highest concentration of flies in this area of Iceland.

Superb

The cabin is located a bit outside (20min from Kirkjubæjarklaustur), but this makes it very quiet and you have a great view of the night sky and eventually the northern lights. Otherwise, the cabin is clean, the kitchen extremely well equipped and the beds super comfortable. The hot tub is awesome!

The floor was a bit cold barefoot/with socks (end of November), so felt slippers would be a nice addition.

Pleasant

Charming cottage, very comfy beds, and we enjoyed the hot tub.

The space is very compact, especially the kitchenette (you have to stand on a chair to access the microwave) and bathroom. The floors and the bathroom door are also very creaky, so if someone gets up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, everyone is disturbed.

Comfortable cottage in the Eldhraun lava fields and a bit of luxury (private hot tub)

Very nice cottage on a farm, located in the Eldhraun area, a stunning lava field. The surroundings are very quiet and the cottage offers and individual hot tub to relax :). Cottage is fully equipped for having smooth and pleasant stay from the start! In addition, there is a top notch gas grill available! From the cottage you could take some walks into the (lava) fields (e.g. following a pony trail).

Perfect getaway family place

Remote location is absolutely a deal breaker. Sorroundings look like the end of the world or place from the Death Stranding gameplay. House equipped with almost all you can imagine.Theres large common space with open kitchen, and eight bedrooms. The only drawback is a shared bathroom, as with bedrooms come only ensuite toilets. So it is more a place for a family than group of friends.

Bedrooms only with ensuite toilets.

the hot pot

spent three nights there, every evening, when we returned from our day trips, we noticed that someone has been inside - a bundle of laundry placed on the floor, next night a blanket was replaced. that was a bit strange for us.

A relaxing atmosphere in a very nice location

The hosting family was very nice so everytime we need help they were there. Nice and warm pool outside. A pro barbecue outside. Hi speed wifi (if you need!) Very good location if you’re lucky enough to see the northern lights (no light pollution around)

Nothing, everything was perfect. If you are coming from the capital and following Google Maps, just follow the main road and take the next turn. Because the first right turn ends up with a higly bouncy road for 20-25 km.
