About this cottage rental

At lodge Brekka you sure have a warm welcome, independent of weather. You'll feel comfortable in the nice open space of the house and the big terrace around, enjoying the privacy of this pristine site. The inviting geothermal tub is discretely placed in the bushes of the birch midst in the pure nature. The location is superb with a great view with ever changing shades of light on the Hvalfjord-bay and the Atlantic Ocean, and the mountain group Sulur in the other direction. A little creek makes the border of the property as it flows by in the gully. The lodge Brekka (means slope) is a beautiful house, finished in 2013. It is sitting nicely in the hillside, hence the name. For 6 people you have a lot of space, additionally there is a double sleeping couch in the open space upstairs, ideal for kids. That way Brekka can accommodate 8 people on request. Please notice, if booked for more than 6 guests a surcharge pr. person, will apply.
Brekka is a gorgeous place to stay, a real retreat from Reykjavik, "Fairly close but far enough". The house is approximately 45 minutes drive from Reykjavík and only about 1,5 hours from the KEF airport. Brekka has a free glass fibre connection for Internet and TV.
Are you heading North, West, South or East? We also run the quality cottages "Hamragil" by the town Akureyri up North (Booking Numbrer 3925011), "Tvera" at the south coast of the Westfjords (4084081), "Stekkar" south of the great sights Geysir and Gullfoss (2903253) and Borgarbrekka 35 km east of town Höfn, in South East Iceland (9408171).

Jon is very helpful, always available and gives very good advice. The comfortable house offers breathtaking views of the mountains, fjord and ocean. The tub experience at night and in the snow is a real discovery. An excellent family stay.

My wife and I stayed at Brekka during early-mid September and had an amazing time exploring many things Iceland has to offer. The cabin is in a fantastic location with terrific views. We saw the northern lights three nights in a row! The lodge was very comfortable and very well stocked. Jon left great instructions and food recommendations. Hotel Glymur dinner is a must! Jon is a wonderful host with excellent, quick communication the few times we had questions. Best of the best! Thank you, Jon! Eric & Hayley

Brekka lodge is a perfect place to stay if you're looking for some rest and relaxation. The lodges in this area all have quite a bit of space and privacy to them. The area it is in is a beautiful place, with convenient proximity to various places to explore in Iceland. Experienced hikers can go to Glymur waterfall at the eastern end of Hvalfjordur. Nearby Hvammvik springs on the south side of the bay gives you a place to swim in the ocean, and then warm up in a thermal pool. Reykjavik is less than an hour away by car, and to the north and west, you have the beautiful Snaefellsnes and other historic places, such as Reykholt. The geothermal tub was very relaxing, and I believe it helped me correct a skin condition on my hand (dermatitis / eczema); after the trip my hand has never looked this good in over 6 years. I would definitely come back to Iceland and stay at another Nordic Lodge in the future!

We were looking for a place that is in the middle of the area we wanted to be. From this place we could go North, South, up to the peninsula, the Gullfoss Waterfall, or to the airport all within a daytrip. What a great treasure we found in Brekka! It was the perfect location, the view was amazing, and it was a great place to relax after our day out.The kitchen had everything we needed for our dinners, and it was wonderful to do small loads of laundry while we were there. Brekka was the perfect place for us!
