All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The web site and pictures promote the ability to have horses close by and even at your unit window. This is not the case if your stay is in early/mid summer which was the time period of our stay. Their own brochure in the unit states the horses are kept away from the guest units until late summer/fall due to breeding and births. We booked the unit (which was the most costly of our week long stay in Iceland) due to our granddaughter being able to see the horses up close. This was not possible. Full disclosure should have been made in the booking web site.

Amazing cottage
Definitely a place to consider if you want to stay for a few days. Amazing high end finishes with all you need for an amazing stay. Confortable bed and double sofa bed, full kitchen, big bathroom with comfy shower and even a Tesla charger included for the price of the night. And it has a small shop cottage with a trust honor system and a cash box. Would go back again for sure!
Askot Cottages are beyond phenomenal! Our best stay in Iceland. The cottage design is thoughtful and purposeful. Every little detail adds to the comfort and experience for the guest. The instructions are presented in a beautifully designed booklet that was clear and complete. All the amenities were stocked and high quality. I wish every place I stayed could be this perfect! Thank you Greta for an exceptional stay!

Exceptional experience! Perfectly designed cabins with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We have a 4 and 6 year old and they loved it. The owners took us to the barn and we got to pet the horses and see them exercising. Such kind and friendly hosts! I was one of the best places we have ever stayed and I hope we can go back again someday!
The pictures don’t do this property justice! Every element was excellent down to the smallest details! If you’re planning to stay on the South Coast of Iceland, look no further.
A lovely cabin in a great location for exploring southeastern Iceland. The cabin is well appointed, and Greta was an excellent host. Highly recommended!

The best property, highly recommend!
We had the most amazing stay at Askót Cottages. The location of the property was perfect when exploring the south of Iceland and the Golden Circle by car. We were even lucky enough to see the Northern Lights 2 nights whilst at the property!
I absolutely loved my stay here. I stayed two separate nights during my travels and these cottages are so well equipped for a home away from home. Everything you could want is provided, they really have thought of everything. The cottages were beautiful, clean, comfortable and the views were stunning! They have plugs for EV cars at each cottage too which is a bonus for people driving e cars. I got to meet one of the owners, she was lovely. I can’t recommend this place enough, it’s a must stay while travelling Iceland.
Our cottage was new, comfortable and cute with a view of Westman islands. The hosts were very kind and let us meet their beautiful blue eyed horse. Great having contactless check-in.

Wonderful stay + free EV charging!
This is a special place. The cottages are very comfortable and have a beautiful view of Eyjafyallajökull and the Westman Islands in the distance. If you email or call they will give you a tour of their stables where they train horses and help injured horses regain their strength (including exercise in a swimming pool!). We met and chatted briefly with one of the owners, who was lovely. As a bonus, each cottage is equipped with a free EV charging station—the only place we stayed on our entire trip that offered this amenity.
This is a vacation rental, not a full service hotel. There is no front desk or restaurant/bar, so I would come with supplies. (The town of Selfoss is about 30 minutes away, and there is a little hamlet nearby with some limited dining options, including a good food truck that serves fish and chips).
The cottage was beautiful, very clean and had many amenities. We loved our stay and would have loved to stay longer. We enjoyed touring the horse barn and pasture with owner and meeting/petting a few horses and asking quesitons.
We had an amazing stay at the cottage. It was cozy and had all the amenities needed to feel right at home. The design and little touches were so thoughtful and lovely. Really made for a special stay in Hella. The hosts were wonderful at communicating and really created a special little place here on their farm. We would absolutely stay here again on our next trip to Iceland!
If you're looking for a relaxing getaway with a beautiful view, comfortable bed and all the amenities you could possibly need, dont hesitate to book these cabins! I only wish we had spent more time to enjoy this location. The hosts were friendly and everything went flawlessly. Seeing the horses was a huge bonus!
Amazing!!! The cottage was easy to find, had everything we needed, was brand new, and was set on a stunning property. My wife and I spent two nights here and wish it was longer.
Had the best stay here! Amazing comfy bed and swing chair with your basic amenities and added touch of washing machine. The best morning view from the comfiest bed Lovely family ran farm that took us for a tour of the horses and area and let us some. Absolutely would recommend to anyone

Beautiful brand new 5 star cottages
What a wonderful place to stay, truly a luxury brand new cabin with all the mod cons of a 5 star suite. The hosts were lovely and welcoming I’d recommend anyone to stay here, you won’t be disappointed by the level of comfort.
