Description
Wake up to the North Atlantic at Barn House by the Sea, a three-bedroom beachfront home in the South Iceland village of Stokkseyri. The home features a private outdoor hot tub, while the upstairs living room and kitchen offer uninterrupted views across the ocean. With plenty of space and a peaceful coastal setting, it's an ideal choice for families and small groups exploring South Iceland.
Location & Nearby
Barn House by the Sea stands on Strandgata in Stokkseyri, a small fishing village on the South Coast where the shoreline runs flat and open. The house is beachfront, so the sound of the surf carries indoors and the horizon is uninterrupted.
Stokkseyri itself has a restaurant about 550 yards (500 meters) away and little else, so plan on stocking up. Selfoss is the nearest full-service town at 9 miles (14 kilometers), roughly a 15-minute drive, with grocery stores, gas stations, a pharmacy, banks, restaurants, and cafes.
The house makes a practical base for the Golden Circle and the South Coast alike. Kerid Crater is 18 miles (29 kilometers) away, Geysir Geothermal Area is 47 miles (75 kilometers), and Gullfoss Waterfall is 53 miles (85 kilometers), each around an hour by car.
Ljosafoss Waterfall is closer at 22 miles (35 kilometers), a quieter stop on the way inland. Heading east instead, Seljalandsfoss Waterfall is 52 miles (84 kilometers) away, with Skogafoss Waterfall a little farther along the same road.
Reykjavik is 41 miles (66 kilometers) northwest, close to an hour's drive, and Keflavik International Airport is 62 miles (99 kilometers) away. The dark rural sky here gives good odds on the northern lights from autumn through early spring.
Facilities & Amenities
The house sleeps a group across three bedrooms, with a king bed, a full bed, two twin beds, and a sofa bed in the living room. Floors are hardwood, blackout shades keep the summer light out, and there is a wardrobe, a clothes rack, and ironing facilities.
One bathroom serves the house, with a bath, a walk-in shower, free toiletries, towels, bathrobes, and slippers. A hairdryer is also provided. Baby safety gates and a children's high chair are available for families with young kids.
The kitchen is fully equipped with a refrigerator, oven, stovetop, dishwasher, coffee machine, toaster, and kitchenware, alongside a dining table. Upstairs, the living room and kitchen share the sea view, with a sofa, seating area, and flat-screen TV. A washing machine and dryer handle laundry.
Outside, the private hot tub is the centerpiece, with a terrace, patio, balcony, outdoor furniture, an outdoor dining area, and a barbecue. Free parking sits by the house, Wi-Fi is free throughout, and private check-in works through a key lock box.
