Hestheimar Horse Farm and Guesthouse

This cosy and family-run guest house is the perfect setting for a rural adventure. Set on an Icelandic horse farm, the guest house commands spectacular views of the Hekla and Eyjafjallajokull volcanoes and is conveniently found just under an hour’s drive from Reykjavik.

The guesthouse is composed of 12 double rooms and two independent cottages. The property is geothermally heated throughout and the welcoming restaurant places an emphasis on traditional Icelandic cooking with homemade bread and cakes baked daily.

Horse riding tours are available all year round and after a long day out sightseeing, a spell in the hot tub admiring views of the Tindfjallajokull glacier is the perfect way to end an evening.
