Country Hotel Heydalur

Really lovely place to be. The interiors are rustic, and feel like I'm staying at a someone's house. Not a bad thing at all though! We also enjoyed being greeted by a friendly cat (the cat was the star of the show). I would LOVE to come back and stay again. The area is beautiful and this would be a lovely place to use as a base to explore from.

The lamb stew with bananas was amazing.

Rooms are not fancy but adequate. Food in the restaurant is very good. You have to try the Puffin appetizer. It’s really delicious. Setting of the hotel is very nice with a river and horses behind the hotel. We enjoyed playing with the “pet” fox that lives on the property. It’s fun watching the fox pester the dog that also lives on the property.

We very much enjoyed our stay at this farm. The accommodations are comfortable, though not deluxe. The food in the communal dining hall was good. However, we skipped what we thought was an overpriced (not unusual in Iceland) buffet, with no option for a smaller meal, such as coffee and pastry. Nice outdoor geothermal pools, including one totally natural "hot pot." We enjoyed wonderful walks along the brook. A variety of walks from easy and flat to steep and challenging. A great family place offering camping options and activities, such as horse back riding. A great place to relax.

Excelent stay at Country Hotel Heydalur, they mean the country part. Its set on a working farm, so icelandic horses are just around the corner from your room. 2 geo pools of different temps and another pool inside a greenhouse to help wind down a day. There is also a natural geo pool across the river, which normally is easily accesed but at this time the staff described as "complicated" due to river being so high, but was able to get to by crossing shin high water in certain spots of the river. Excelent dining options youre able to pre order and arrive at the set time for. The breakfast also had many options to start the day on. Cant reccomend this place enough if youre traveling the westfjords!
