Good stop

4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 16 Oct 2016
Our guide, Oli, booked us here and it was a good stop for one night.

Location: basically out in the middle of nowhere. It was a good stop for the night for our next day's itinerary which was Landmannalaugar.
Room: Our group stayed at the lower level or basement. Rooms have faucets and the basement has one shower with a toilet. Then another smaller closet with another toilet. Beds were comfy and warm. Very homey feel as it is an actual summerhouse of the family who runs it.
Food: Since we stayed for one night and there is probably no restaurants nearby, we opted to have our dinner prepared there. Lovely 3 course meal with trout and potatoes as the main course. Dessert was yummy chocolate cake with ice cream. As for breakfast, it was the usual ham, cheese, bread, jam and butter.

They usually only operate the bed and breakfast during summer.

Reviewed 12 July 2014

We booked Heimaland for one day, thinking this is our interim stop for a long travel between Reykjavik and Vik. The moment we arrived which was quite late in the day, we were greeted by the family who showed us around and also told us the stories around the area. We immediately felt in love with the place and decided that we will stay there for one more night despite we had already booked and paid for another guesthouse at Vik.

The mid night sun, which can largely be seen just at their backyard, were marvelous (see some photos taken there). We love the beautiful and quiet environment there. The family also breed Icelandic Horses and you can get close and touch them if you want to. There are also many birds around, one of which actually have a nest with three eggs in it just in their frontyard.

They gave us some suggestions to visit the Hekla Volcano and Landmannalaugar which was quite fun with our 4 wheel drive. Dinner at the guesthouse was beautifully cooked.

The only thing that is less than ideal is the walls between rooms are perhaps a bit thin and when there are other occupants in the next room, we will at times heard the noise from them. But we don't really stay inside the room for long time due to the beautiful environment and hence not a big issue. You could also choose to stay at their Cottage which will give you good privacy and quietness.

When we visit Iceland next time, we will certainly go back to Heimaland Guesthouse again.

Dear Friends at Heimaland, We had a great stay at Heimalind. It was not just the quiet serenity and the lovely scenery that made us all very comfortable; it was you and everything you did. We always felt so warmed by your welcome and by the care you gave to each detail in the food, the advice and other services you provided. On behalf of my wife and kids we give you a big thank you for helping us have a wonderful visit to your beautiful country. Sincerely, Greg and family
