    The Guesthouse was one of the highlights of our trip. Super cozy, very clean, and with a fantastic view over the water. The kitchen has everything you need, including tea and coffee, and the common area invites to socialize or just relax.

    We love the private location with the view of the peninsula and ocean. We love the coziness of the room and how thoughtful designed it was. It feels like home away from home. Martin was also kind and responsive! It has been one of favorite stay...

Property info

The house called Tungulending was first used to process lumpfish caviar. It was build in the 1950s and was in operation until the year 2000. It has a long history in icelandic fishing culture and still today it is possible to feel the former importance of this place. In 2013 Martin Varga from Germany had decided to rebuild the house, but keep the original atmosphere. Tungulending is located in a very special surrounding. With the pier and old harbor area it still reminds the old days and past use of the building. In 2024, we, Thessa and Chris - also from Germany - decided to take over the guesthouse. We are happy to take on this task and to reopen this special place for many people.

Neighborhood info

Amazing surrounding. Pure nature. It is very special to find a place for a holiday house so close to the North Atlantic Ocean. Tungulending is in a remote area, it feels like being in an untouched bubble. Unique, peaceful and friendly.
