Skard Cottages

It was a place to rest our heads, but unfortunately the cleanliness left a lot to be desired. There was visible dirt throughout the room, and several surfaces that should have been wiped down clearly hadn’t been. The water also had a noticeable sulfur smell, which we understand is normal in Iceland. However, it would have been helpful if there had been a note explaining this, as we weren’t sure whether the tap water was safe to drink. Also, the description said that there was no parking and there was an abundance when we arrived.

Yes, the hot tub was heated by Hot Springs water and it was delightful! what a treat to be out in farmland!

The little cabin was lovely with a little kitchen. Room had a stocked bookshelf, deck of card and chess board. Very quiet location. Owners provided clear instructions/directions to find location.

The location is really cool. It was nice to be private after a stay in a guesthouse. It is also really cool to wake up and see sheep. The bed was comfortable and it was nice to have the hot tub ready for us. I would have liked it a little warmer, but I’d definitely stay here again!

This place was a scam. Amenities listed were not included. Place was dark, dusty and wore down. The hot plate for cooking did not work. No tv was included. No way to control the temperature of the cabin. It was stifling! Furniture was uncomfortable. The water smelled of sulfur and you could not drink it. The hot tub was cold, dirty and the walls were slimy. The place was impossible to find in the middle of nowhere. My husband and I got maybe two hours of sleep and left this nightmare behind!
