This hotel is set on a farm within the Golden Circle Region, 15 minutes’ drive from Gulfoss Waterfall and Geysir hot water springs. It offers horse riding during the summer season, traditional cooking and a geothermal outdoor hot tub. Truly unique experience getting to stay at an Icelandic farm: - Great cuisine and produce at the hotel restaurant (the soup and burgers are a must) - Very neat, well sized and warm rooms - Good location inside the Golden Circle

Featuring mountain views, Heima Holiday Homes provides accommodation with a garden and a patio, around 42 km from Ljosifoss. There is a terrace and guests can make use of free WiFi, free private parking and an electric vehicle charging station. The cottage was very comfortable, warm, enough space inside and lots of space outside. Our son enjoyed playing with the dogs. Remote so good for Northern lights viewing (no light pollution). Close to Golden circle sights. I wish we were staying longer. The kitchen had everything necessary to prepare some dinner and breakfast (there is nothing close by, 20min to Selfoss).

Situated 43 km from Geysir and 48 km from Ljosifoss, South Central Apartments offers accommodation set in Brautarholt. There is a private entrance at the apartment for the convenience of those who stay. The apartment features quiet street views, a children's playground, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. I liked the location, it's right in the golden circle, Gullfoss is only 40 min drive away. The room and washroom were really clean, it had a nice lavender scent. The kitchen is full equipped with stove, mini fridge, sink, microwave oven, pots and pans, cutlery, dinnerware and kitchen utensils. The access to the room is really convenient, the host will message the access code to the front door. Only thing to take into consideration, if you need to get groceries, to need to drive to Selfoss or to Fludir. If you're lucky as we were, this is the perfect place to watch the Auroras. Parking is free.
