    Rosa was extremely helpful to all of our questions! The house is fully equipped,nothing is missing from the kitchen. The cherry on the cake was the gorgeous show that we had right outside of our house with the northern lights!

    The property was perfect for viewing northern lights. It has large, well-positioned windows from all rooms. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook our own meals. The "hot pot" (outdoor) tub was wonderful on cold evenings; the temperature...

    The bedroom was spacious and the extra sofa beds were perfect size. I loved the high ceilings and 360-views for a chance to see the northern lights. Heated floors were such a nice touch.

    The layout of the place. How warm and cozy inside. All the kitchen appliances were great to prepare quick meals. How each cabin has some privacy from the others.

    Excellent design and furnishings. The house was extremely clean and cozy. The hot tub was a nice bonus. We had everything we needed for a romantic weekend getaway.

    Super cute. Mid modern. Loved the large windows to help see the northern lights despite the northern lights not being visible due to weather that night. Love the hotpot and overall style of the cabin.

    Modern clean design but still with a cozy feeling. The large windows and view are amazing!

Svartaborg Luxury Houses are located in a beautiful, very quite and remote valley in the north of Iceland. The houses stand on a mountain and all have a magnificent view. The location is perfect for visiting the most popular sights in north east Iceland so spending a few days at Svartaborg, day-tripping to all these sights is ideal . The houses which were built 2020 have a unique luxurious feel, designed by the owners to make your stay as comfortable as possible. A unique place in the north you should not miss.
Rósa and Snæbjörn the owners are both designers who live and work in their farm Rangá with their two children Jóhanna and Jón. Rósa´s granparents built the farm which the couple bought and renovated 2018. The couple have had a successful career with their design studio which was located in the center of Reykjavik. The family longed for a more quiet lifestyle with more closeness to the areas beautiful nature they so love. This valley and the area are certainly fulfilling that dreams.
Svartabor could not be better located when it comes to sights in the north of Iclenad. Husavík is a 20 min drive with world renowned Whale Whatching and the Geosea baths. Goðafoss waterfall is reached within 10 min. Akureyri, the capital of the north is only a 30 min drive, Lake Myvatn with all its natural wonders is a mere 40 min drive, so in fact we are in the middle of the Diamond Circle. Dettifoss, the most powerful waterfall in Europe and Ásbyrgi also make for a perfect day-trip. Even closer by are endless hiking locations, swimming, horseriding, golf, fishing,skiing and many other activities available.
