Local writing here in English. The house is large and very well equipped, we enjoyed 5 very nice days here in the area. Everything you need is in the house, a large flat screen TV and a brand new BBQ on the huge veranda. Thanks for the lovely stay. Next farm has a very good horse rental and should not be missed.

Frábært í alla staði - kósý hús í sveitinni og aðeins um 20mín akstur til Akureyrar. Allt til alls og mjög fín samskipti við umsjónarfólk. Mæli með þessu !!

We enjoyed staying at this spacious house. The house is fully equipped and the location fantastic: close to friendly Grenivik (great swimming pool with a view over Eyjafjördur) and good hiking trails nearby. We very much enjoyed staying there. Also the owner, Jónina, was welcoming and easy going: nice to meet her, too.

One point of attention; the heating device in the store room next to the kitchen made a lot of nice and kept some of us awake at night. Even audible in the farthest bedroom. So it may be good to look into this.

This is an amazing place to be, spacious, clean, great view. A great house, wish we could build it in Belgium. If ever we have the occasion, staying there for a while would be magnificent.

Beautiful and large house that has everything you need. Everything was absolutely perfect, the beds large and comfortable, the view and the surroundings are just fantastic. The horses at the neighbors was a wonderful acquaintance and the two-hour ride amazing. We can highly recommend this house. 1000 takk frá Dönum :)

We had an amazing stay at Grytubakki 3. We only had 1 night booked to stay but because of a cancellation 1 day before we were due to arrive we phoned the owners last minute and they were very kind in allowing us to stay the extra night. The house is spacious and well set out with everything you would need to be self catered. To top it all off we saw the northern lights both nights with a perfect viewing position behind the house.
