“This is a once off in its simplicity and authenticity and the host, Johanna, makes it even more special. In a busy, over stimulated world this is a rare opportunity to really step away and just breath. Highly recommended.”

Company information

I really like to welcome and host you and inform you about my beautiful country and what to see and do in this area that is located out of the beaten track. I am a professional guide and I do like hiking and skiing and enjoying good food and the wild nature.

Property information

This is an old house by the seaside right outside of the village Bakkafjorður in the North-East of Iceland. The house is located on a privat land of five acres so you will experience unique peace and quietness at this property. You will be able to enjoy the beautiful sunrise and the sunset when we have our bright nights in June, July and early August. If the luck is with you might see some reindeer up close and the Northern Lights in late August when the days become shorter and the nights longer and darker. This is an ideal place for all nature lovers, birdwatchers a hikers. We will offer some refreshments upon your arrival and inform you about the area and the nearby attractions and activities, such as hiking possibilities. Please notice that Bakkafjordur is the first/last place of the Arctic Coast Way in the North of Iceland.
