Family hotels and homes in Ásborgir

Big and comfortable house within the golden circle. We had a great stay

Fantastic facilities, hot tub was a plus! Rooms were spacious and the living area was lovely for group hang-outs. Breakfast was delicious - such a spread.

absolutely everything! hosts were wonderful

The cottage itself is quite big, with a total of 3 bedrooms it’s perfect for family leisure and or larger groups (pro tip: you can re-arrange the beds to make a bigger bed). The surroundings are stunning, mountains almost everywhere, when it’s rainy and foggy the tops of the mountains fade a bit which makes it feel more cozy. The floor heating is a great way to keep the entire house warm although we did turn it off approx. 3 hours before sleep as it also heats the bedrooms. The location when it comes to restaurants and shops is also quite good, there is a small shop + road restaurant on about 5 minutes away from the cabin although all of this and more is provided in the guest book. All with all we had a great stay and would probably come again if we decide to visit Iceland for a second time. (Ps. There is a former volcano-ish pit 1 minute away, it does cost around 800 ISK but is worth visiting (€5.50 at the time of writing))

Countryside was beautiful, cabin was very cute and well fitted out, and the hosts were so kind and accomodating- offered to let us meet the horses and their pets. Getting to watch the northern lights from bed was a highlight :)

Plenty of space for 4 people, no issue for 6, 2 more beds were available . Very clean and very good position to access to a lot of interesting sites without driving a lot. We really enjoy staying there, we made 3 stops during our iceland trip, this one was the best of those 3.

Its a very different space with very good facilities. The hot tub was amazing. You have good facilities to coock your own meals.

The property is about 15-20 minutes north of Selfoss where you can get most things you would need for a self catering holiday. The location also means that most of the Golden Circle spots are not far away and we even drove down to Diamond Beach and back in a day, which was a journey never to be forgotten for its superb scenery and iceberg boat trip. The house is easy to find even if down a track off the main road (Google maps will take to the the track that is now blocked, so you need the other one about 30m further north). There is ample parking for up to 3 cars. When we went into the house it looked far better than the photos, especially the deck out over the river which was superb (on a nice day!). The views from the kitchen window and the lounge were also wonderful. One reason I chose this house is that it seemed to be far more nicely furnished than many others I had looked at in the area and we were not let down by the reality. Even though the description said 5 bathrooms, there were only in fact 2 shower rooms (one en suite and the other a family bathroom - the other 3 were hand basins off each twin room), however this was never a problem and there were 6 adults in our family. The kitchen is well equipped and the huge lounge is great for relaxing after a long day's hiking, horse riding or whatever. The TV had Netflix. There are blinds on each window that are effective (you need them if it never gets dark). The sauna was a hit as was the hot tub outside, again with superb views. Communication from the owners (Vala) was quick and she was always very helpful. Our children (very fussy and frank in their views) thought this was the best place we have stayed in so far, which is saying something as I always try and find nice houses wherever we go as a family. Overall I would recommend this property highly to families coming to sample the true wonders of Iceland's scenery - the house is spacious and very cosy on colder days.

the owner was kind and super friendly with us. The house is beautiful, charming and has an amazing view for the sunset

Cozy dome in a fantastic location with endless view to a beautiful lake. It has everything you need for a relaxed stay. We even found a bottle of wine as a welcome gift. Everything was just perfect. Highly recommended.
