Hvammstangi Cottages

The Hvammstangi Cottages are a magical place to escape to in north Iceland. Ring Road travellers looking for a base between the north and west, or any others seeking a total immersion in the country’s nature, will find these self-catering log cabins a great choice.

Location & Nearby

The Hvammstangi Cottages are surrounded by rural nature, with Icelandic horses roaming in the nearby fields and beautiful vistas all round. In spite of its location in the wilderness, the town of Hvammstangi is just five minutes drive away. Here you can find a wealth of traveller services and the fascinating Icelandic Seal Centre.

The presence of this museum is no coincidence; Hvammstangi is on the Trollaskagi Peninsula, one of the best places for seal-watching in the country. This stretch of coast also boasts the unique Hvitserkur rock monolith, 50 minute’s drive from the cottages.

Many staying in one of these log cabins do so because they are perfectly located between three of Iceland’s most incredible regions, and thus a fantastic base between them. The town of Akureyri, which provides access to the major sites of north Iceland, is less than three hours away, whereas the Snaefellsnes Peninsula and the Westfjords can be reached in around two.
