Description

Borgir – The House by the Sea is a charming holiday home in Northwest Iceland, located in the Hrutafjordur area near Borgir farmstead. This cozy coastal retreat sits just meters from the sea. It offers a nature‑immersed stay for travelers wanting solitude, coastal views, wildlife, and a base for exploring Iceland’s less-visited regions.

Location & Nearby Attractions

Borgir is located in Hrutafjordur, a fjord region in Northwest Iceland. The property sits by the coast on a large tract of unspoiled land, with hills on one side and the sea on the other. 

Wildlife such as seals, sheep, horses, and birds are often seen right around the property, enhancing the sense of remote coastal immersion. 

Because of its remote setting, Borgir works well as a basecamp for day trips. Guests often journey toward the Westfjords or into Akureyri and North Iceland, exploring nearby coastlines, fjords, and rural settlements. 

Though remote, Borgir – The House by the Sea is within reach of several small towns that offer supplies, culture, and local charm. Laugarbakki lies 35 miles (57 kilometers) and serves as a convenient stop for groceries, a swimming pool, and seasonal services. 

Further along the coast, Hvammstangi is another scenic village, featuring restaurants, service stations, the Icelandic Seal Center, and cultural spots like wool factories and seal‑watching tours. 

To the west of the accommodation, Holmavik is accessible within a reasonable drive and is known for the Museum of Icelandic Sorcery and Witchcraft, local folklore, and coastal scenery. 

Facilities & Amenities

Borgir – The House by the Sea is a renovated guesthouse villa and farmhouse that accommodates solo travelers, couples, groups, and families. Rooms are designed to “feel like home,” with comfortable furnishings and sea views. 

The property includes a well-equipped kitchen and outdoor terrace or patio areas for enjoying the surroundings. 

One highlight is the sauna, which guests can use for relaxation. Free Wi-Fi and private parking are also provided. Because the house is so close to the coast, many rooms also offer direct sea views. 

Why Choose Borgir – The House by the Sea?

Borgir offers a rare combination of tranquility, coastal access, and wildlife presence in a farmhouse setting. Its remote location and natural surroundings make it a memorable stop on any itinerary through northwest or West Iceland. Check availability now to secure this unique seaside retreat.
