Hellnarfell guesthouse is a beautiful home just 1 km outside of cetrum Grundarfjörður. Peace and quiet is guaranteed. We only rent out the whole house,so if you are a couple that reserves the house you have the whole house to your self and dont have to share it with anyone. We started renting hellnafell out in the beginning of 2016 and have been fixing it up and trying to give it some love that it deserves. The view does not disappoint anybody that is for sure 😁 The house has 4 bedrooms with 8 beds for people. But we do obły have one bathrooms there for is you are a big group it is important that you know it has only one bathroom. You can find us on Social media we love getting your feedback on what we can do better to improve our guesthouse and we love getting photos from guest
Kolbrún is the owner of the house and her daugher Eva will be the host :) Kolbrun lives in the north side of Iceland and is a photographer and horse trainer. She loves the outdoors and horseback riding and most of all spent g every minute with her family. Eva worked from home and loves communicating with her guests. She is always ready for her guests if there is anything they need. Quick to respond do your questions, but is she does not answer with in minutes in booking her number is on the side and will answer your questions quickly by phone. She loves travelling and spending time with her family
