Ein sehr schönes Apartment, mit allem, was das Herz begehrt (inkl Bücher und Musik). Direkt auf der anderen Seite vom Supermarkt, sowie nur wenige Minuten zu Fuß zu zwei sehr netten Cafés (beide sehr zu empfehlen). Besitzer waren sehr sehr nett...

The Cat's Cradle is a family run business that offers a brightly decorated studio apartment which is located in central Grundarfjördur. It offers free parking, free Wi-Fi and TV. The apartment has a view towards Kirkjufell, the famous mountain. The swimming pool, restaurants and the grocery store are located nearby and the Golf Club just 8 minutes away. We, the family, live in the main house, and we have a cat called Annabelle. Sometimes she likes to say hello to the guests and could maybe stop by for a visit, but Annabelle is a lady and very well-trained. We are re-decorating the apartment and pictures of it will come in May. We and Annabelle look forward to hosting you.
