Einishus Cottages in Laugar

Self check-in and check-out. 2 rooms and a living room. The rooms are clean. All necessary information is in the file. We checked in at 2 a.m. and checked out at 7 a.m. It was very easy.

What an amazing cottage. Located right in nature and absolutely quiet at night. Really peaceful. There are 5 houses in total, 2 bigger and 3 smaller houses. We stayed in a smaller house. We had some trouble opening two suitcases but it wasn’t a big deal. There’s a table with 4 chairs and a couch. Small kitchen but has everything you need to cook a decent meal. Bbq outside is wonderful. Bathroom is great. Beds are fine. Heated floor was really nice. But the highlight of it all and the foremost reason to book this cottage: the hot tub outside. It’s massive and deep. So comfortable. Really nice fresh hot water. We stayed in the hot tub for hours.

I absolutely loved staying in this cabin. The remoteness and ability to disconnect is exactly what I was looking for. The hot tub, outdoor BBQ and kitchen were fantastic. The peaceful surroundings were so nice as well as the hiking trail next to the cabin.

The pastoral setting for these cottages was beautiful. I loved taking a walk on the trail mowed into the adjacent field for that purpose watching and listening to the birds that were nesting there. I even saw an owl on one of those walks. The private hot tub was the highlight of the cottage itself, and we appreciated having access to the grill. The kitchen was adequately stocked for basic cooking. We also appreciated that the fridge had a freezer in it for refreezing our cooler ice packs. Location was excellent for exploring the North.

This unit felt the most cramped of the places we stayed in during our trip to Iceland. The couch seemed to take up too much of the main room, and the kitchen counter was very small for food prep, cleaning dishes, etc. There was no dishwasher. The unit was also incredibly warm when we arrived. It took quite some time to cool it down with all of the windows and the door open, which led to lots of flies inside. The beds were not the most comfortable of our trip. While clean linens were provided, this was the only property we stayed in where we had to make up our own beds using those linens.

Overall, this was a comfortable but basic home base for our exploration of the North of Iceland.

we are loving our stay at einishús cottage! we wish we had booked 2 nights instead of just one! the place is lovely, very quiet, perfectly decorated and… the hot tub! awesome!

We enjoyed our 2 night stay here. The large windows create a nice bright living area. Open concept kitchen, dining and living area with a loft above the living area. Loft is nice if you need more than 2 bedrooms. Bedrooms are small but we spent most of our time in the main living space, so not an issue. We used both the outdoor hot tub and BBQ with no problems. We drove from the cottage to Húsavík and back for whale watching. Located close to highway 1 so it was easy to find and to return to the highway for the next leg of our trip. Peaceful setting set in a large open field surrounded by low hills.

Beautiful cottages in peaceful charming countryside. The kitchen is well equipped and there is also outer grill. We really enjoyed the hot tub. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Recently stayed here with a couple girlfriends and it was perfect! The place was clean and cozy & the hot tub outside was a major plus. Perfect place to see the northern lights in a secluded setting! I absolutely want to stay here again!

Fantastic cabins, meticulously designed and kept. Everything you need in a tidy beautiful package sitting in breathtaking landscape. The owner is friendly and a short drive away there are shops and a few restaurants. The outdoor hot tub is a blast and the whole experience of staying here... very special.
