Cozy guesthouse with a lovely big kitchen and shared dining and living room. The bedrooms were charming and the shared bathrooms clean and on the same floor as the bedrooms. The view from the property is stunning and we really enjoyed our one night we were there during our Iceland trip

Nice , clean cabin . Good location between trees . Friendly hosts and easy to find .
Syðra-Skörðugil Guesthouse is perfectly located in the heart of Skagafjörður, only 5 km from nearest city Varmahlíð. The house features 5 spacious bedrooms, and 2 bathrooms are shared among the rooms....
My stay at the guesthouse was a bit of a mixed bag.
My stay at the guesthouse was a bit of a mixed bag. On the positive side, the self-check-in process was a breeze, and I was pleasantly surprised by the level of cleanliness and the spaciousness of my room. The facilities, including the WiFi and kitchen, were top-notch, and I had no complaints on that front.
However, there were a few quirks that left me feeling a bit unsure. The surrounding farm was somewhat peculiar, but I must admit that I'm not exactly an expert on farming, and I didn't book this place for its agricultural charm.
The absence of any human interaction with the host was a tad disconcerting. It might not be everyone's cup of tea, and a friendly welcome or some local insights would have been appreciated.
One noteworthy detail was the water quality, which had a distinct sulfur smell. While this might be normal for the area, it would have been helpful if the host had mentioned it beforehand.
In summary, the guesthouse had fantastic facilities, but the lack of host interaction and the peculiar farm surroundings left me with mixed feelings. Plus, a heads-up about the unique water scent would have been a considerate touch.
However, all in all, good to very good value for the money.

This small town is a good base for exploring the area, including horse riding at Icelandic Horse Tours in Helluland and a trip to Drangey Island with Drangey Tours. There is a nice exhibit on the Icelandic Civil War (ca 1230) and Iceland's oldest bakery. A short walk up to the cemetery provides a nice view.

Wonderful museum in town ( fun for kids - has virtual reality experience) More museoms in surrounding area. Many more areas to explore and activities to partake in. Excellent tourist information staff in Varmahid.
The whole place was really nice! They've just finished refurbishing the common area and it looks like some 5 star hotels! The entrance was not entirely finished, but they were putting a lot of work and effort into it.
We were the only guests the night we stayed, and it was great!
We were allowed to use the hot tub too, which is outside, and provides an overview of the amazing valley the guesthouse is in.
It is a farm too, and you can see horses and some other animals!
Upon check-in, we were offered the opportunity to upgrade to a room at the Tindastool Hotel & we took it. The keystone in the fireplace downstairs in the dining area says it was built in 1820 & the owners have exerted a huge effort to provide modern comfort (plumbing, electricity, wifi) and safety (sprinklers, smoke detectors). Our room was clean, cozy & comfy, the beds & comforters were excellent. We had no complaints with our stay!
This was our favorite place we stayed in Iceland. We got the best sleep ever - it was summer and the room had blackout curtains, which isn't a given in every guesthouse. The kitchen was really special too - they left out some baked bread and farm-fresh eggs for us to eat in the morning. The whole place was really cosy and the views into the fjord are amazing when the clouds clear away.
One of the best guest house we've stayed in all of Iceland! Very spacious living room, kitchen, bathroom, comfy beds. A full house that felt modern and well maintained, didn't feel cheap at all. Just next to the very nice owners' farm.
Excellent remote location next to the sea with clear view on the sky to watch notrhen lights if you're lucky!
Whish we could have stayed longer
Our stay was very nice at this hotel with so much history and character. Breakfast was very good. The staff was friendly. The bed and bedding was very comfortable. The room was a good size and cozy. The hotel’s ambience was cozy, warm and inviting. Also great that it had parking for our rented car. Relaxed at the hotel’s hot pot with a cold beer.
It was so nice to have some extra space to spread out after several nights in tiny places. The location was perfect as we made our way around the ring road. The view was spectacular and the host was very nice! I also think it was the best shower we had in our 10 day trip. Huge bathroom and shower which is hard to find in Iceland!
We felt very welcome and enjoyed our stay. The house has a fantastic view - especially the sunsets over the mountains and the sea were breathtaking - and is not too far from Sauðárkrókur where you can have good food or take the bus. The rooms, bathroom and kitchen were all nice and clean! We‘ll definitely be coming back!!
The advertising for this place does not do it justice. this was a hidden gem for us. Check out the horse tours and get a discount on the room if you book directly through them. Very well stocked kitchen, clean property and wonderful staff. One of the best places we stayed while traveling Iceland.
Beautiful setting in the village of Holar, Iceland. So much historical significance here - too much to mention here - look it up on Google. Comfortable room, very clean, ease of checking in, good breakfast, individual router in the room so excellent wifi connection, great shower.
Beautiful view of the mountains It's located on a farm and fun to watch the horses, dogs and other animals up l
ise. There was a beautiful kitchen for guests to use. The typical Iceland breakfast was offered in the morning. Located very close to a farm museum which was excellent.
I would recommend this place to anyone thinking about staying in Sauðárkrókur. Perfect if you're traveling alone and probably for a couple aswell. It was really cozy and clean, definitelly worth the price, wish I could stay longer.
Small, cozy hotel with a really beautifully designed restaurant and really good breakfast (the home-baked bread was delicious!). There is also a hot tub in the back garden. Peaceful location by the sea. We really enjoyed our stay.
Very good garage apartment, good value for money. Seems pretty recently made up and had all the essentials. Good location within walking distance from everything @Sauðárkrókur.
