I had a great experience staying at a cozy cabin surrounded by the beauty of Iceland! The drive to the location was absolutely stunning, with green fields and majestic mountains all around. The woman at the front desk was super friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome right from the start. Although the cabin was small, it had a warm and cozy atmosphere that made us feel right at home. We were a little tight with three people, but it wasn't a major issue. The stove in the cabin was fantastic, allowing us to cook a delicious dinner in the evening. Waking up to the sight of sheep surrounding our cabin was an unforgettable experience. we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely consider returning if we have the chance to visit Iceland again in the future.

We were pleasantly surprised with the upgrade to a larger cottage and the spaciousness it provided. the extra bedrooms and beds were a nice bonus. . the private cottages were well-equipped with a kitchen, including pots, pans, plates, and mugs. We especially appreciated having a microwave in the room, which was rare during our Iceland trip. It was great to have the freedom to park our car right next to the cottage. the presence of a barbecue grill on the porch was a nice touch. Each cottage had its own Wi-Fi router, providing a strong and reliable internet connection.

The finding and navigating of the property, especially in the dark and snowy conditions, proved to be challenging. It would have been helpful if certain paths were plowed better and if there were more signs between the cottages.

The location was spectacular, close to Gluggafoss, Seljalandfoss, Skogafoss, and Black Sand Beach. the cottages were a nice alternative to staying in Vik. There was a gas station and grocery store nearby. the cottage was well-built and stayed warm. the water from the tap was delicious and the wifi was better than expected.

Felt very secure, nothing too much trouble.

Cute cottage, spacious, own bathroom and kitchen, convenient location, affordable, warm and cozy.

As women travelling alone, we felt safe and comfortable with the helpful staff and clear map provided. the cottage itself was cozy and spacious, with comfortable beds and ample space for dining. the heaters were adjusted to our liking and the blankets kept us warm. the location was great, allowing us to enjoy the Northern Lights at night and easily access nearby attractions like the Black Beach.

Felt well taken care of, no reason to complain.

Beautiful location with stunning views of the surrounding nature. Close proximity to nearby town and popular attractions, making it convenient for exploring. ideal for those hoping to catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights during their stay.

The overall cleanliness of the cottages was subpar. The lack of proper maintenance was evident, with dirty windows and a noticeable air leakage in the bedroom, leading to a cold and uncomfortable environment.

We had a fantastic stay at the cottages! the property had all the amenities we needed and the location was perfect for us.

Check-in was a breeze and the keys were conveniently located at the restaurant. the owner was incredibly kind and made our stay enjoyable with interesting stories and delicious breakfasts. the cottage itself was cozy and well-equipped, with stunning views of the northern lights. We would highly recommend Hellisholar Cottages to everyone!

Grassfield cottages with good privacy, surrounded by other cottages. Warm and well-supplied kitchen. Beautiful view of meadow with sheep and volcano. Friendly staff and delicious breakfast. Incredible view of Northern Lights from cabin porch.

For the price we paid, we got great value for our money. The cottage was cute, spacious, and had its own bathroom and kitchen. We saved a ton on food by cooking our own meals, thanks to the compact kitchen. Plus, the surrounding views were amazing.

Breakfast offerings could be improved.
