Family-friendly vacation rentals in Rangárþing ytra

Our family felt right at home. The house was well stocked with all the right kitchen equipment and the basics that help one feel right at home (e.g., coffee, sugar, tea). We had one issue with the washer-dryer, but the host was very responsive and helped us remedy the situation.

We absolutely loved this home! Quiet and an excellent base location for a few days exploring the south coast but easy to get back to the airport. First time travelers to Iceland, could not recommend this cozy and friendly home more - even caught the Northern lights one night!

Brilliant location in the middle of the golden circle for seeing and doing everything, Can be tricky to find first time with certain navigation apps, I would suggest a what3words location or a shared google pin, Good amenities and facilities in the cabinet, The hot tub was great to sit out and see the northern lights, Took us awhile to fill up and get the correct temperature but once sorted you get amazing views of the sky The two single beds pushed together were very comfortable, A second pillow would have been a nice touch But overall really good place, Lovely cabin, Good amenities and amazing location:)

We absolutely loved staying here! It was easy to get to in winter with 4WD and was a lovely location to watch the northern lights (there is not much light pollution). We visited in February and watched the lights from the hot tub multiple nights in a row. It is also the perfect location to visit the three 3 major attractions on the Golden Circle (Thingvellir, Geysir, and Gullfoss) as well as other Golden Circle destinations. They are all within a 10-30 minute drive. The house was clean, warm, and inviting. The welcome book and “leaving Uthlið” book was very detailed and well thought-out. Everything in the house was in its place as the notebook and instructions stated. Palmi and Vala were very responsive and had great recommendations. 10/10 Highly recommend!

My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay here while we were in Iceland. The host was communicative, responsive, and accommodating. He met us at the local gas station to guide us to the house because it is located in a remote area nestled within farmland. The house was clean and comfortable. Hot tub on the patio was a great way to relax and unwind after a day of exploring Iceland.

Beautiful surroundings! Very private and lots of horses to see. Plenty of room as well

An amazing peaceful retreat, yet close enough for all the sightseeing we wanted to do.. dark skies provided an amazing opportunity to see the Northern lights!

Wonderful house in a perfect surrounding. Host ist accommodating and responds quick to questions. Perfect. We come again. :)

Amazing place. We sat in the hottub at night with - 10 degrees while it was pitch black. A moment we will never forget. The place looked even better than on the pictures. We cooked at the place two nights, the oven is amazing and all the equipment is there. Linda responded very quick and was very nice. Thank you Linda!!

thank you so much, the cabin it very nice and even spotted the aurora.

Loved our stay in this beautiful home. It was toasty warm with lovely outlooks and space yo relax while still feeling part of the beautiful scenery. The house was well equipped. The host was very responsive when we needed some help to work the hot tub.

The accommodation was very big and nice because it was used by two people. The response speed was always fast and friendly The kitchen was spacious, so it was easy to cook. There was a washer and dryer, so it was very convenient. If I come back to Iceland, I will definitely stay there

We had the most wonderful stay at Marteinn’s place. Thank you so much for having us.

A beautiful little cabin in a gorgeous area with stunning views. I used this as my home base from which to explore the Golden Circle. The cabin was clean and tidy, the kitchen had all the basics, and there were some lovely touches including chocolate bars, some seltzer, a full carton of milk and cereal. And the heated towel rack was an incredible luxury that I used every day! Sylvia was not there and did not respond to my message telling her what time I would arrive, but her very nice and helpful husband Gylfi greeted me when I arrived and gave me a tour. He also came out to say goodbye when I left and we had a nice chat. I would like to have used the hot tub but it wasn't especially clean. I ended up at the nearby hot pot Secret Lagoon anyway, which was great, so it was not a big loss.

Lovely cabin we saw the Northern lights from the hot tub. private and quiet Relatively close to Golden Circle attractions Selfoss and Hella.

Kids enjoyed the most because of the PlayStation .We loved the cute radio playing in the morning during breakfast and the coffee machine was perfect ! We were very comfortable in your house . House was perfect for a family of 4. Also loved the attractions folder . We enjoyed the Mexican food from the food truck company and the ice creams from the local shop. Watched a nice movie together last night . Was home away from home . Thanks a lot .

This cottage was the perfect base for us to explore the Golden Circle and South Coast. The small town of Hvolsvollur has a grocery store, liquor store, gas stations, restaurants, and a municipal pool. We ate at the Art Cafe and Gallery Pizza. We saw the Northern Lights while sitting in the hot tub, so awesome! We cooked two dinners there, did laundry, and slept well.

Great place with lovely views

We spent three nights in a very nice accommodation close to many sites. It is very well equipped, quiet and we were able to see the northern lights from the sofa through the living room windows. We highly recommend this accommodation! Thank you for the hospitality and ideas for nearby visits!

This house was perfect. The hostesses met us when we arrived, gave us instructions on things they wanted us to make sure we knew (for safety and such due to the temperatures), and spent around 2 hours giving us a tour and history of the house. It was absolutely perfect for what we needed and they were so thoughtful with all of their recommendations for activities with our children. We 100% recommend this house to others and we will be coming back in the future!

Burma’s beautiful home is ideal for anyone who wants two bathrooms (hard to find in Iceland) and plenty of space. It’s in a quaint small town very close to the Golden Circle and not far from Selfoss, which has more substantial amenities. Easy drive to Gullfoss and Geysir, and a small grocery is within walking distance of the house. The views from the sunroom are beautiful. The kitchen is modern, functional, and spacious. The outdoor area, including the hot tub, is wonderful in the evening. The nearby restaurants, including those in Reykholt, are wonderful! We highly recommend this place for people who want extra space and don’t want to stay in the busy capital city. We’d stay here again in a heartbeat!

The boss is very welcoming and hospitable, and speaks Chinese and other languages. He treated us to a hearty breakfast. The location of the house is beautiful, and the room is cozy and comfortable. It's the most cost-effective place.Thank you so much!
