Austurey cottages

Six newly cottages built for privacy and unobstructed views, located in Austurey 1 by lake Apavatn. The sleeping area contains a ready-made double bed (160cm) which leads to a private bathroom with a shower. Each cottage has a fully equipped kitchenette as well as a table and chairs for dining. In the living room is a smart flat-screen television and a sofa where guests can relax and enjoy the view over the lake as well as the surrounding mountains and volcanoes Hekla and Eyjafjallajökull. In front of each house is a heated veranda with private garden furniture and barbecue facilities.

Guests are welcome to visit Austurey's sheep shed by agreement (November-May). Lake Apavatn is ideal for fishing (February- September). Thriving birdlife is by the lake and therefore a great location for bird watching. Austurey is a perfect location to view the northern lights, due to limited light contamination.
