One of the quietest and relaxing places I have been to. All the dairy products is also very fresh

This place is really great in a beautiful wilderness valley. Dinner and company were excellent.

I booked The Wilderness Center as a surprise for my husbands birthday because we had seen it on an episode of Ben Fogle & we loved the idea of riding an Icelandic horse & soaking in the hot springs on site. However, on arrival we were informed our riding had been cancelled as the horses weren’t able to be shoed in time which was very disappointing. Despite this, the staff went out of their way to make our stay special by organising a horse ride with another company & when we found the hot springs weren’t working (upon our return) they made us coffee and provided us with bread and homemade cookies for supper. It meant we had a wonderful day & our stay was very comfortable! It really makes all the difference when staff are so accommodating and helpful.

This was a beautiful location with family history. The host was so friendly we thought we were staying over at cousins house. Very special

The Wilderness Center is a great place to get off the beaten path, eat a home cooked meal and learn about the history. There's a variety of stay options. The bathrooms were clean. The food was great. Couldn't ask for anything more.

Its a 56 Kilimeter drive from the town some on gravel road. Old rooms (tiny) in an old house. Little to ni privacy.

This is a unique experience in which you feel a great sense of being enmeshed in a rural Icelandic setting. Such fun!
