Loved by guests
"Surprise in the room was the towel warmer - soooo nice!"
"The food was great, especially the homemade dark, seeded bread made by the owner; it was the best bread I've ever eaten, and I bake my own bread."
"The view was incredible."

Golf courses are available in Langholt, Ólafsvík, Suður-Bár, and Stykkishólmur.
“In Lysudalur, this guesthouse strikes me as a particularly good base for exploring the Snæfellsnes Peninsula, especially for families wanting space and a taste of rural Iceland. I appreciate the unpretentious comfort and the surprisingly good food, plus its proximity to both the national park and local activities. A solid, unflashy choice, in my view.”
