About this cottage rental
Experience the Magic of Snæfellsnes
Nestled in the heart of Snæfellsjökull National Park, this cottage offers a front-row seat to some of Iceland's most breathtaking natural wonders. Wake up to panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean, dramatic lava fields, and the majestic Snæfellsjökull Glacier, one of Iceland's most iconic landmarks.
As darkness falls, step outside and look up. The area is recognized as one of the best places in Iceland to experience the Northern Lights, thanks to its remote location, minimal light pollution, and vast open skies. On clear winter nights, the Aurora Borealis may dance above the glacier and ocean, creating memories that last a lifetime.
Rising 1,446 meters above the peninsula, Snæfellsjökull is a glacier-capped volcano that has inspired travelers, artists, and explorers for centuries. Visible from Reykjavík on clear days across Faxaflói Bay, this magnificent peak gained worldwide fame as the entrance to the underground world in Jules Verne's classic novel Journey to the Center of the Earth.
Surrounded by black sand beaches, rugged sea cliffs, lava formations, charming fishing villages, and abundant wildlife, the Snæfellsnes Peninsula is often called "Iceland in Miniature" because it showcases so many of the country's most spectacular landscapes in one unforgettable region.
Whether you are seeking adventure, tranquility, breathtaking photography, or a chance to witness the Northern Lights from your doorstep, this is the perfect base for an unforgettable Icelandic escape.

The best place we stayed in Iceland!Beautiful property and excellent base for exploring the Snæfellsnes peninsula with our hire car. Incredible views from the window of a nearby church and very little light pollution. Able to hike to Arnarstapi via the lava fields straight out the front door. Property was comfortable, clean and cosy. Kitchen well equipped. Very helpful having a washer/dryer. Price was very fair for how wonderful it was!

Beautiful location with scenery that is absolutely glorious! This is the perfect home for two. It is small, but has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The stairs to the bedroom are challenging as they are very steep. We both just made sure we hung on to the railing to make certain we did not fall. Very clean property. Perfect as a jumping off point for the sites of the peninsula.
