Skalafell-Cosy apartment, spectacular surroundings

The farm is settled in the most beautiful scenery you can imagine. Powerful mountains all around, sound of the fresh salmon-river, waterfall in the breath taking canyon. Aurora Borealis from your window, when the sky conditions are right. Great for getting away. Relax or be creative. Mindful hiking in the untouched nature and enjoy farm live. Middle of nowhere, and yet it is only 22 km drive from Reykjavik city center. Many points of interest are within easy reach: Golden Circle and Hvammsvik. Other things to note Good to bring cozy slippers or cozy socks. Coffee maker is brewer that uses ground coffee, we have coffee filters. Good to buy food on your way from the airport, shopping is 10 km away. Heating is with electric power so good to conserve the hot water as possible. Winter wonderland: You will need a 4 wheel drive/jeep in the winter months (usually NOV - MAR) as there can be a lot of snow on the roads. Practical: Check the weather forecast before you leave and do you updates while you are in Iceland. Icelanders plan their travel base on weather. So best to list things you want to do and than plan the days according to weather when you arrive. Bring warm clothing so you can hike and stay outside in the nature as much as you like. Also hat and gloves and good shoes for rain and snow. Like we say, "there is no bad weather, only bad clothing" ;-) Drinks: If you like wine, buy it at the airport, it is cheaper, as we only have special wine stores by Gov. Water is free and so fresh in Iceland by the tab, bring your bottle!
