Skarð

Siggi is a wonderful host! The property was quiet and comfortable and in the middle of the mountains. We enjoyed talking with Siggi at breakfast and learning more about Iceland.

Great host

Séjour mémorable dans ce petit B&B appartenant à un fermier fantastique nommé Siggi. Le Guesthouse est situé dans une magnifique vallée. Siggi vous fera sentir comme à la maison en vous offrant confort et gentillesse. Il vous est servit un petit déjeuner copieux accompagné d’un savoureux café. La rencontre avec Siggi fut l’un de nos moments coup de cœur de notre voyage.

Uau, great place, amazing experience. Sigg was really nice, we had a good conversation about Iceland and we learned a lot!

The host, Siggi, was fantastic: helpful, knowledgeable, kind, and very personable. His homemade Rhubarb jelly was yum-my! Beds and pillows were comfortable! Coffee and breakfast spread was top notch. Would definitely recommend!

The guest house was so cool. I loved being on the farm. We are only there for one night though unfortunately so we can’t get to enjoy a lot of it. I wish I would’ve had more time there. But it was great to be out in the middle of nowhere and we even got to see some northern lights while we were there. Would definitely recommend! And Siggi was cool too!

The host Siggi, is extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of Iceland. We talked with him over coffee and breakfast which was delicious and included BTW. Siggi is the third generation farming on his grandfather’s land in a beautiful area right about Malari beach. He was able and enthused to discuss Icelandic history, conditions since becoming a republic in 1944, and future prospects given its ideal location between Europe and North America. All in all, nice homey atmosphere and friendly informed host. He shared his country with us. That was remarkable.

Wonderful hospitality. Enjoyed great conversations. Magic valley. Highly recommend.

We had an amazing stay in the quiet, clean, and well equipped property. Details like the hearty breakfast and opportunity to purchase handknit wool sweaters made by his grandma set this experience apart from our other stays. However the highlight was spending time with our host Siggy as we talked about sheep farming and Iceland's history. His warmth and deep knowledge about all things Icelandic gave us a greater appreciation for the country.

This was our favorite stay in Iceland!!

Host Siggi is very friendly and welcoming. The place is spacious, clean, and comfortable. Breakfast has good selection of food. Would highly recommend a stay here.

Host was great and very hospitable. Room and bathrooms were clean and comfortable.

La struttura è situata in una zona rurale completamente immersa nel verde della campagna islandese. Alloggiare qui è davvero un'esperienza autentica e rilassante, da fare almeno una volta in un vostro viaggio in Islanda. L'host è davvero una persona simpaticissima e preparata, pronto a rispondere alle nostre richieste via messaggio, anche nella nostra lingua. La camera era calda e pulita.

We stayed the property in one night. We checked in so late time, but owner’s response is so quick and kind. The room is clean and the stuff is so gentle.

Of all the places our group stayed along the ring road during our trip in Iceland, Skarð Bed and Breakfast was the crowd-favorite. The B&B is in a gorgeous scenic location on a family farm, and tucked away in a spot we never would have gotten to see if we hadn’t stayed there specifically. Siggi (the host) was very accommodating with our late arrival and the rooms were very clean and comfortable. The breakfast was perfect, and Siggi was great company and answered tons of questions our group had about Iceland (and offered some great suggestions of attractions along our route). On the way out we purchased some sweaters hand-knit by his grandmother which are the best souvenirs we could have to remember our time in Iceland by. Overall Skarð Bed and Breakfast was a unique and fun experience.

A great place to stay with a wonderful host! Peaceful, scenic and quiet area. Memorably good breakfast. Very comfortable common area. Everything clean and tidy.

We enjoyed our stay at this property. It was in a peaceful setting. The host took his time to welcome us and make us feel at home. He did not seem bothered by all of our questions. We learned a lot about Iceland from him. He even sat down and had coffee with us the next morning answering more of our questions. We’d definitely recommend this property to others.

The host Siggy was very welcoming, sat with us at bfast and gave a nice insight of living in Iceland and a glimpse of life in these parts of the country. Our drive here was priceless. Take the 95 coming down rather than upwards from the 1, awesome views.

Pretty much similar to what others said. Abt 15-20min of gravel road in order to get there, drive cautiously!!! The surrounding is absolutely beautiful—snow capped mountains, a creek, sheep around the area. Because it’s sort of isolated, it’s very quiet and peaceful. I went out later in the evening to take pictures of sheep around the farm. The host Siggy (hopefully I got their name right!) immediately greets you upon arrival and shows you the best hospitality. Absolutely loved chatting with him. He’ll tell you all about the stories of Iceland you never knew of! I couldn’t stop asking him about how farming is like in Iceland. Very fascinating! It’s a pretty small guesthouse with about 3 or 4 other rooms in total so it’s really not noisy. I had to check out early due to my itinerary and Siggy didn’t hesitate to set up breakfast earlier than normal for me— very grateful for that! Anyways, I would absolutely love to come back to this place in the future!!!
