It is a lovely property with a great view. The cottage had everything we needed and the beds were comfortable. The cafe had great food and the prices were reasonable for the area. Only complaint was that the hot tub area did not have no-slip mats and with the water and cold the floor froze up and I fell and broke my arm. While waiting for emergency services to arrive the staff was more upset about not being able to lock up the bathhouse rather than concern for my safety and protection from the elements (it was late and cold and windy that night). Considering the lack of safety measures, they could have been more understanding given the circumstances

Unsere Buchung konnte nicht erfolgen, da sie am Tag unserer Anreise von Hotels.com storniert wurde. Eine Alternative wurde erst um 18 Uhr abends 75 km von unserem Zielort entfernt angeboten. Die bereits vor sechs Monaten bezahlte Überweisung haben wir von Hotels.com bis heute nicht zurückerhalten.
Wir waren 10 Jahre lang Kunden bei Hotels.com und eigentlich zufrieden. Aber die Kommunikation mit dem Unternehmen funktioniert sehr schlecht, schlecht ausgebildete Mitarbeiter, die nicht der Sprache mächtig sind.
Vorsicht bei künftigen Buchungen bei Hotels.com!

Génial ! Le sunset cottage est isolé des autres bâtiments de l’autre côté de la colline et offre une superbe vue sur la vallée. Le logement est confortable, la literie est bonne, seul l’équipement de la cuisine pourrait être amélioré (casseroles, poêle). Le restaurant est agréable et le personnel accueillant. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour.

We stayed at the Sunset Cottage. It was my husband, our 21 year old, 16 year old and me. The cottage has two bedrooms, a bathroom and a small kitchen/sitting area. It was super clean and very comfortable.

One of our most fun stops! Hidden gem. Property and evening dining area overlooks a beautiful waterfall. We and the kids loved the troll garden and games. The cottage itself was nice. 1 full, 2 twin beds, private bathroom, kitchenette. It's up on a hill, away from the rest of the camping/sleep pods. We enjoyed the privacy. I was worried it'd be a buggy area, but a-ok! I didn't know, but Iceland is mosquito-free. Just close the door quickly to avoid swatting flies. No music that evening, but a fantastic music room with a small stage. I have a feeling that it would be an incredible experience if we knew the story behind it and the music was going.

Dejligt stort hus med køkken og opholdsrum, rent rart eget værelse. Fantastiske omgivelser med vandfald, gåsti mm og skønne hot tups. Dejlig mad til rimelig pris.

Absolutely beautiful and spacious! We loved everything about this cottage. The owner was very polite and kind to wait for us as we arrived and showed us around the area and took us to our cottage. The views were gorgeous!

Everything was so great, but what we appreciate the most:
- the opportunity of having the breakfast althought we were the only ones for it.
- that we got the room in another part from the other guests, if it was possible. It made the stay more private.

The 2 bed rooms cottage Valley View is like what I expect. From here we can go to Hruanfossar with 30 min (35 km).

Cadre charmant et activités intéressantes. Cottage très sympathique et bien équipé. La vue est splendide. Le cadre, et notamment la véranda, est magnifique!
La responsable pourrait se montrer plus sympathique et moins directive. L’employée était très serviable et fort sympathique.

beautiful setting- on river falls-nice to hike around. All types of accommodations little motel type rooms- huts with bring your bag and very nice guest cabin with great kitchen that we stayed in- suggest you do your own cooking..dinner was pricey and very bad- like thin dried fish breaded like a disguise- -not a chef in the house! Cold fish and I mean forgot to nuke well fish and chips.Breakfast- book or not was good-usual buffet. Again suggest to take advantage of fine kitchen if you have the guest cabin. Shop for food supplies in Borgarnes.The place was nice -we expected a really nice dinner, Dining room was cute- music records theme in glassed deck view of Falls.

We stayed a couple of nights at Fossatun's Sunset cottage, the place was tidy and clean, spacious enough foe a family of 4 including 2 teens. The view was fantastic and must be great for watching the northern lights when the weather allows it. Very nice troll and folklore themed walk around the water fall. Definitely one of our best stays in Iceland.
