Wake up to a panoramic view of Hekla volcano from your own private Icelandic cabin!

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 3 Dec 2019
I cannot give a high enough recommendation. The cabin is lovely, modern, and sparkling clean, with kitchenette and panoramic view as well as a patio to take it all in! Close to Hella. Hostess Ragnhildur is fabulous and prepared a wonderful breakfast for us to make our stay even more special. We dined by candlelight in sheepskin-covered chairs. She shared pictures from books on Iceland and gave us tips for our various destinations. Would definitely return for a longer stay.

My husband and I spent one night here recently We loved this place and wished we could have stayed longer! Firstly, the host Ragnhildur, was in contact with me way before our arrival. She gave us directions and was concerned when I told her that our driver will drop us off and pick us up the next morning, which means we do not have a car to go out for dinner! She suggested we eat in the town first and even made arrangements for a taxi to come get us later! In the end, we packed some food and checked in, so it was not a problem.
There are 4 cabins and we were in the first one. What a lovely cabin it was, as you enter, the bathroom is on the left and on the right a kitchenette (note; there is no mocrowave but it has a stovetop). The sitting area faces the kitchenette with the bed next to it There is a sliding door to walk out to the balcony which overlooks the river. there are chairs to sit too but it was too cold!
Still we enjoyed our packed meal with a bottle of wine, sitting inside but looking out to the wilderness!
Ragnhildur lives onsite with her family and she was so pleasant and warm and welcoming.
Breakfast the next morning was served in a little dining area adjoining her house. We loved the freshly baked breads!
But best of all, we saw the Northern lights! It came on earlier than expected and Ragnhildur came knocking at our door to tell us the Lights are here! What a beautiful sight it was to have the sky lit up!

we did a round trip on Iceland.
It’s not easy to find good, reasonable accommodations, if you are booked them in advance....

Fagrabrekka Guesthouse was a perfect stay with a stunning view from the cottage, clean and modern rooms and really good breakfast prepared by the lovely owner.

Highly recommended

Absolutely perfect. The cabin are in perfect condition and clean would be an understatement. The view is fantastic, the decor is so inviting and the overall atmosphere was a perfect conclusion to our two week stay in this great country.

We stayed here at the start of our Iceland trip for 2 nights, and I don't think we could have picked a better place to start our journey. It was so peaceful and relaxing. We are a family of 4 so we had 2 little cottages next to each other. The cottages are decorated stylishly and had everything we needed. We loved all the windows and light that shone through so everywhere we looked there was a beautiful view. The horses were always within sight as well. Ragnhildur was a wonderful host and her breakfast was so yummy with wonderful breads and coffee. I informed Ragnhildur of my daughter's nut allergy ahead of time and she was super helpful in accommodating her.

We all agreed that this was the best place we stayed on our trip, and would love to stay here again.

Beautiful tiny houses on a lovely farm high on a hill, amazing hosts and a very clean quiet place to land on your way to or from South Iceland. The breakfast was outstanding and a bonus visit with the owners horses made this an absolutely perfect start to our trip around the ring road. I highly recommend this special and unique experience. The only thing that would have made it better is if the Northern lights had made a show.
