Family hotels and homes in Sauðafell

The house is beautifully restored, tastefully decorated and extremely characterful with a lovely family history. It was great to be able to use the well-equipped kitchen to cook dinner and there was plenty of space in the beautiful living room to eat and relax in the evening, with stunning views over the valley below. Berglind and Finnbogi were very friendly and welcoming hosts.

Great host, they also run a diary farm, got to visit it, perfect with kids. The hot tub was also warm when we arrived, great way to relax after the drive.

This was my favourite stay across Iceland. The guesthouse and rooms are absolutely stunning - feels like a traditional B&B, and you can see family and local history throughout the house too. The location is quiet and peaceful, but still only 10-15min drive to shops, supermarkets, etc. Since it was the off-season, there were no other guests during my stay, so I had the entire guesthouse to myself. Only stayed one night, but saw the most amazing sunset and woke up to snow the next morning!

Saudafell Guesthouse has been in the same family for 4 generations. It has been renovated and finished in 2011. The living room is furnished with historic charm, with a great view over the property, and a porch. We had most of the guesthouse to ourselves in March and stayed in a nice spacious room on the ground floor with a desk, which was quite the luxury! The spaces are kept very clean, and Berglind comes over to prepare breakfast every morning. It was delightful! Highly recommended!

Super nice host and great house. Breakfast was superb too an knits you can buy from the family

- If you're looking to stay and share moments with a true icelandic family, don't hesitate to book here! We had some great discussions at the breakfast (which was pretty basic but enough). - The house is located on a farm full of sheep which was nice to look at, at all times - The bathroom was clean - The kitchen is very well equipped with everything u might need to heat meals or cook them - The shared space was good (although we were the only ones there that night, so we kind of enjoyed the whole house for ourserlves)

The best bed and blaket I’ve ever seen, slept like a baby there! And of course the hot tub in front is just awesome with nice view all over :)

Panoramic location, carefully refurbished historical building. Set within an operational farm, which makes the stay more authentic. Clean, comfortable, warm; fully equipped kitchen; 3 bathrooms. Wifi worked perfectly. Delicious breakfast. Amazing view. The owners made me feel at home and shared with me stories and info about their farming and family history.
