Solbrekka Holiday Home

Enjoy the peace of rural East Iceland when you stay at the Solbrekka Holiday Home. Located on a remote fjord in the tiny village of Mjoifjordur, this gorgeous and romantic cottage is the perfect stay for travelers who value remote nature and stunning views.

Location & Nearby

The Solbrekka Holiday Home is at the edge of the Mjoifjordur fjord in the village of Mjoifjordur. With a population of just 11 people, Mjoifjordur doesn’t have many amenities, but it does have tranquility and incredible views!

The Mjoifjordur fjord on your doorstep is one of the most amazing things about a stay at Solbrekka. This narrow fjord is as remote as it gets, and the beauty surrounding you will be impossible to forget.

Mjoifjordur fjord was initially settled in the 1900s by Norwegian whalers, and their whaling station at Asknes was one of the largest globally, with around 200 employees. Today, the entire fjord is home to only approximately 25 people, meaning you won’t have to worry about running into other people!

East Iceland is well known for its stunning beauty. If you’d like to venture out from your cozy cottage in Mjoifjordur, you can make the journey to Hengifoss waterfall. Forty-six miles (74 kilometers) from Solbrekka, the third-tallest waterfall in Iceland is sure to amaze.

Seydisfjordur is the nearest town with restaurants and grocery stores, about 41 miles (66 kilometers) away. Seydisfjordur is one of the most charming villages in Iceland, with a rainbow-painted high street leading to the picturesque blue church.

Since many of the roads in the area are unpaved, drive time is longer than you might expect. For optimum comfort and relaxation, purchase your groceries before arriving at the Solbrekka Holiday Home and prepare to settle in and relax!
