Frequently asked questions
Where can I find the biggest offer of available cottages in western Iceland?
Western Iceland is one of the country's most popular regions for cottages. Every year, many people from around the world, but also Icelanders themselves spend time in places far from the city, amid silence and untouched nature. You can choose between a wide offer of cottages near Borgarnes. You can also stay in Hellnar or Arnarstapi on the Snaefellsnes Peninsula. Both villages offer an ocean view and are close to the coast.
What are the must-see locations on the west coast of Iceland?
If you're planning a trip through western Iceland, be sure to explore the Hvalfjordur fjord and go to the famous Hraunfossar, Barnafoss and Glymur waterfalls, which is one of the highest in the country. See the Berserkjahraun lava fields, admire the famous Kirkjufell mountain and the nearby Kirkjufellsfoss waterfall, or take a photo of lupins in Hellissandur. It is also worth going to the black beach of Djupalonssandur, admire the cliffs of Londrangar and the Vatnshellir cave. If you want to see seals, one of the best places in Iceland is Ytri Tunga beach in the south of the Snaefellsnes Peninsula.
In which part of western Iceland should I stay to have a beautiful ocean view?
If you care about the sound of the waves in the morning and want to admire the changing sky over the ocean, book a cottage on the Snaefellsnes Peninsula in Olafsvik, Hellissandur, Hellnar, Arnarstapi or Budir villages. If you want, you can also rent a holiday home with ocean views in Akranes instead of staying in Reykjavik.
If I book a cottage in western Iceland, can I go exploring the Snaefellsnes Peninsula?
Yes, it's an excellent location for accommodation if you plan to visit the famous Snaefellsnes Peninsula. You can stay in Borgarnes, near Yti Tunga beach or in Stykkisholmur. Thanks to this the next day, you will have enough time to explore this region of Iceland.
Is booking a cottage in western Iceland a good idea if I'm planning a romantic honeymoon in this region of Iceland?
If you and your other half are looking for a romantic place between picturesque landscapes, with the ocean or lava fields view, booking a cottage in western Iceland is a convenient idea. Also, make this reservation as soon as possible and prepare yourself to admire the northern lights while relaxing in a hot tub during the winter season or enjoy your long summer day when it's a Midnight Sun.
Is there a good internet connection in the cottages in western Iceland?
West Iceland is well connected, and high-speed internet access is available in most places. Many accommodation facilities, including summer houses, provide free WiFi to their guests.
Can I sleep in a cottage in western Iceland using my own sleeping bag?
