Relax with family or friends at this peaceful green garden country home. Located roughly 10km from Kirkjubæjarklaustur and the ring road, in the south east of Iceland. An old farmhouse with a long and unique history, serene and tranquil, secluded and beautiful. Take a trip to the past by visiting your special house, built in 1946 for a household of 15. Take the the day off in our luscious and wild garden, and make dinner in a custom built 70's kitchen. The house is a two story 5 bedroom farmhouse built in 1946 for a large extended family. My childhood home which my parents lived in from 1960 to 2015. Since they passed it's been a dream of mine to bring life to the house again and share it with travelers. It's renovation is an on going project but my hope is to maintain its original style and feel. Currently we have 4 bedrooms on the lower floor and a toliet, plus a laundry room. On the upper level we have 2 bedrooms, a bathroom with shower, kitchen with a big dining table and pantry, living room and book room. Guests are free to explore the entire grounds belonging to the house, seperated by a fence, the garden. Please be mindful that there are private cabins/houses in the area with private roads / areas and the farm itself belongs to another family. If in doubt please just ask and we'll inform. If you need anything, please feel free to either message or call me. Being only 10 km from Kirkjubæjarklaustur there is a lot to see in the surrounding areas. Honestly there is still a slight lack of acitivites close to the town but hiking trails and spectacular scenery are definitely not in short supply. Systrafoss, Systrastapi, Fjaðrárgljúfur, Tröllshylur, Grenlækur, Stjórnarfoss, Dverghamrar and Lómagnúpur are just a few natural wonders in the nearby countryside. Having Google Maps or other forms of GPS navigation is probably best to find your way to our place. However its also relatively easy to find and some manual directions are also needed. Right before arriving at Kirkjubæjarklaustur from Reykjavík, while on Road #1, there's a right turn which takes you to Meðalland / Landbrot. Make that turn and drive for about 10 minutes, until you see a blue and yellow sign on the left side of the road that says Seglbúðir. Make that turn to the left and drive that road to the very end, past a few road entries, the main house on the farm (big house on the left when arriving), past the sheep house / barn (on the right), until you reach our white box shaped old beauty 😁 You can park right outside the house.
