The farm is a beautiful property ~ the drive is about 20 minutes from the ring road and worth a stay; the owner was so helpful with Icelandic history and shared his life as a farmer.

Siggy was a gracious host who shared many stories of Iceland. He suggested a hike behind the property that was difficult but we’ll worth the trek. Breakfast was delicious. The farm was very peaceful. I stayed 2 nights and wished I could have stayed longer.

Quiet stay in a country setting
Posted 30 Jul 2023 on HotelsExcellent stay at a nice country type Inn. We stayed in the room with bathroom/shower. There are also three other rooms with shared bathroom. Big common area with satellite TV and fridge. Lots of chairs/table and couch. Ziggy is your host and he serves an excellent breakfast and can tell you great stories about Iceland history. Nice selection of family knitted sweaters should you wish to purchase one at a reasonable price. A hidden gem!

Such a great experience
Posted 16 Jul 2023 on HotelsWe arrived late evening, quite tired, to the Skard Farm guest house. Siggi greeted us and gave us the basic property info. We were the only guests, which was actually kind of nice... so quiet and peaceful! I enjoyed a walk around to take some photos before turning in.
Breakfast was very good and generous (great coffee!). Siggi joined us and we spent an hour talking, learning so much about Iceland culture, history, current economics, and more. Really wonderful host!
The farm is off the beaten path for sure, but we felt so worth it. We slept so well and got great tips for our next day. It would be a good place to come for bird watching, hiking or biking if you had time...
We took Siggi's recommendation as we started our day and went a bit north... we visited the French maritime museum up along the east fjords and Petra's rocks and then enjoyed a beautiful drive back through the fjords heading south on our way to Hofn the next night, but even the area around the farm is quite beautiful.
Overall - great stay and very comfortable genuine family property and experience

The hospitality of Siggi was the best!! We felt very well taken cared of, particularly because we arrived later than we anticipated at the house and Siggi’s communication was excellent. After a delicious breakfast, Siggi engaged us in conversation and I really appreciated the opportunity to talk at length with an Icelander.

This place is a little off the beaten path but it was absolutely lovely. It was quiet, quaint, and gave you a real taste of Eastern Iceland. Siggy greeted us with a warm welcome and made us feel right at home. He was attentive and quick to respond to messages on our way in. We woke up to a wonderful breakfast spread and shared in beautiful conversation over coffee. I wish we could’ve stayed here longer!!!
