    For some reason none of us could connect to the Wi-Fi, it would continue to load without connecting. Luckily we didn’t really need it this trip, so I won’t change my rating because of it. But think it’s good to mention since the property was supposed to have internet connection. Also, wish we could’ve met the horses closer up because I grew up with horses, but didn’t hear back from the owners.

    We absolutely loved the views, the cottage, and the horses!

    Nothing!

    The cottage was very well equipped with thoughtful amenities and an abundance of sunshine. There is a mini convenience "shop" close (within 10 meters) to the cottages which includes breakfast items and drinks! We met the hosts after checkout and they shared some stories about their ponies and how they tended the farm. I would not hesitate to recommend Askot Cottages to anyone.

    The only problem was our travel itinerary that didn't allow us to stay there longer :)

    Comfortable, quiet and cozy cottage with very nice hosts It's very rare for apartments to have a microwave and small cabin nearby with self-service grocery is a good idea. You're provided with a printed brochure that tells the story of Áskot Cottages, introduces you to the owners and explains how to use all the amenities - really nice. In the morning we were greeted by owners' cat, dog and puppy and it was a great company.

    Personally I would have rather had a small oven than a dishwasher for 2 people but that’s more of a preference for me . Some shelving for clothes could have been useful as we were there for over a week.

    Airy, peaceful and well equipped with lovely touches like vinegar oil, coffee machine, excellent quality toiletries . Beautifully decorated, lovely and light

    Hello Greta, thank you very much for the warm welcome. The cottage was definitely our best accommodation in Iceland. You can see that it has been lovingly designed, it is luxurious and leaves nothing to be desired. You arrive and feel at home. The small details of the furnishings make the stay a special experience. We loved staying here and have already recommended it to others Thank you very much for this great stay Eva and Holger

    The water pressure wasn't the greatest, but it worked. My son loves TV, so not being able to watch any TV was tough at night after a very long day. Not that we would of watched it anyway. lol

    The location was awesome and we loved how new the property was. It was very comfy to stay there.

    Our stay here was absolutely perfect. You can truly feel that the owners care deeply about this place – everything was prepared with great attention to detail. The welcome catalog with all the instructions was very helpful and made everything easy. The house was spotless, very comfortable, and had an amazing, calming view that we’ll never forget. The entire place felt authentic and full of charm. We didn’t get the chance to meet the owner’s animals (horses and cats), but of course we completely understand – they’re living beings and can’t be expected to greet every guest! This was a 10/10 experience, and we’ll definitely return next time we visit Iceland. Highly recommended!
