About this cottage rental

Víðines is a perfect base for your Icelandic holiday. Have a memorable day at Snæfellsnes National Park, visit a natural hot spring like Deildartunguhver, or amazing waterfall like Hraunfossar. Other interesting places to visit are, the active volcano Grábrók, the crater Eldborg, historical viking landmark Reykholt, and the Ice tunnel in the glacier Langjökull. You can stroll through the nearby cozy town of Borgarnes and drop by the cafe’s, museums, shops and restaurants. Take a drive to the capital Reykjavík with all its glory, nightlife and culture. Make a day trip on the Golden Circle and see the exploding Geysir with all its natural power, and drop by the historic Thingvellir National Park, and view close up the beautiful Gullfoss waterfall.

In the evenings you will always come back home to this modern architecturally designed house in Víðines and the first thing you might do is, relax in the hot tub and enjoy the views or the Northern Lights in the peace and quietness after a memorable day. Did I mention that this house is in a fantastic Nature Hiking Paradise...

The house has an open kitchen-living room with a large kitchen island. It is very spacious and ideal for family and friends preparing a good meal together. The kitchen has all necessary tableware and high quality equipment for cooking and baking. The living room has floor to ceiling windows and an amazing view.

The design of the house is outstanding and well thought out.

The heating system is perfect and we can guarantee you a warm and cozy house in the winter time.

This house was absolutely perfect for our group of nine. The house was well stocked and the owners were wonderful with communication and information about the house and the surrounding area. It is located in the perfect place and we walked to the waterfall everyday and were able to climb the crater once. It was a good spot to feel relaxed, but close enough to Borganes to grab groceries etc. The house itself was lovely and the hot tub and scenery were perfect after a day of hiking.

We spent 3 nights here and really enjoyed our stay! It was the best accommodations of our trip. The house is welcoming and well equipped with everything we needed such as towels and kitchen supplies. The beds were very comfortable and everything was very clean. We enjoyed spending our evenings in the hot tub with the beautiful views of the mountains. There are a few other houses near by, but far enough away where the house still felt private and peaceful. We were able to walk to a nearby waterfall and enjoyed the many lupine flowers blooming in the area. We would highly recommend and hope to make our way back in the future!

Cannot say enough about this place. Owners really have made a beautiful and peaceful home away from home. Very clean, super comfortable beds, great kitchen space in open living area. Views of dramatic scenery at every turn. Appreciated the blackout curtains in bedrooms and the hot tub was awesome especially after a long day of hiking. Lots of towels and wash clothes and the outdoor shower was a bonus!! Great place to explore western Iceland. My family really enjoyed our stay and were sad to leave such a lovely place.
