Overall Ratings & Reviews Sleeping with the Horses

Spacious and clean cabin. Very modern but cute. Felt safe and loved watching the horses out back. Wish to return someday with better weather. Loved everything about my visit.

The cabin was great. It was definitely a home away from home. We got to pet the horses and were able to see the northern lights on a clear day. The only con I have is that our beds were on the softer side and lumpy but it didn’t factor in my rating. My advice is definitely come before sundown because the roads are dark and road is somewhat rocky. Also, get your snacks and/or food before you come cause it a decent drive to find something and most of the stores close early

Beautiful accommodation away from the busy tourist areas! Recommend to anyone visiting Iceland ☺️ also can’t forget you get the added bonus of meeting some of the most beautiful Icelandic ponies 🐴

Our kids LOVED the horses! Great stay.

Lovely cabin. However bit disappointed there were only two ponies in the field.. did expect a few more given the name of the property..

We loved our stay BUT the marketing photos and name of the hotel are very deceptive. You DO NOT get the horses coming to your cabin, there is a fence (electric) at least 20ft or more away from the cabins and the horses don’t come near you, you can see them afar from your cabin only. You can see Icelandic horses alllll over Iceland so this isn’t really a special experience. The cabins are wonderful and so is the overall location but you will be disappointed if you are going to want to do what the girl in the photos is doing as that is not going to happen! I highly suggest they remove the photos of the horses coming to the cabin so they don’t get more disappointed guests.

An amazing stay and hosts. You won’t regret it!

The stay was great. Clean property and all ready for arrival. However, there was no one to contact for further needs. We needed an iron and an extra pillow as we were 3 staying but there was no communication on their end.

We loved staying here! Such an amazing location with all the beautiful horses, very modern and clean cabins, also very close to many waterfalls and hiking locations! Would absolutely stay here again, highly recommend!

The unit was beautifully located. The building was warm and welcoming.

Unbelievable experience and a must see. Truly sleeping among horses on the most peaceful, picturesque property. Only about 15 minutes to a town with several dining options and a grocery store. We got to pet the horses and take a beautiful evening walk alongside their pasture. The cabins themselves are gorgeous and very luxurious- the bedding was amazingly comfortable. I wish we had more than one night! A once in a lifetime experience.

Unique, secluded property. Comfortable bed, well appointed kitchen, and great toiletries.

The farm and the horses are beautiful and the cabin was lovely. Thank you for the hospitality!

It was an amazing experience. Mr. Iceland gave the kids a tour of the stables and spoke about the horses. My kids were really happy.

Thank you Mr Iceland. The horses were beautiful and friendly. The cabin was comfortable and completely clean and quiet.hope to see you again soon!

A beautiful property with access to the gorgeous horses just outside the cabins. I will absolutely return with more friends!

Well appointed units in a lovely quiet rural setting. Horses were entertaining. Kitchen incuded a induction cooktop and dishwasher. Great wifi and comfortable beds.

An incredibly unique property, with Icelandic horses right behind your new & fresh cabin. The option to book private or group horse back riding tours with the team here made the experience complete for our family. Highly recommend.

Sleeping with the horses is a quiet retreat conveniently located to the Golden Circle. Make sure you rent a 4-wheel-drive if you go in the winter. The last 4 km is on an unpaved road. We got stuck in the mud when we took a wrong turn. The good news is that, Hörður was our knight in shining armor and brought a large tractor to pull us out in the middle of a driving rainstorm. The Blessi cabin is actually one large room with a separate bathroom. There are a minimum of dishes in the kitchen, but everything is in perfect condition and as clean as can be. It was probably the most comfortable bed we slept in in Iceland. We would be happy to stay there again.

The property was clean and perfectly ready for us. A real mood setter! The property, all four cabins appear to be brand new. The horses are right there and just a few steps out from the back sliding glass doors. No, it does not smell like horse business. We were there one night and saw the Northern Lights for over an hour. This is a great location for searching for the lights. Almost zero light pollution and no mountains to obscure the views No TV but you shouldn't need one. There is WiFi if you need to get on touch with the rest of the world. If we ever end up back in Iceland, we will be staying for at least three nights rather than just one. One is not enough. Our favorite location out of five stays.
