About this property

Luxury riverfront villa, w/ hot tub and close to the Golden Circle

Árhvammur, our wonderful country house is both a modern and a cozy riverfront home with amazing views. It is close to the Golden Circle and many other great attraction, located near the renowned swimming pool , Laugaskarð in Hveragerði, a unique geothermal town, only 30 minutes from Reykjavík.
The house is very spacious 200 m2 (2153 sqft) with a big open family/ kitchen area, 4 spacious bedrooms (sleeps 10 easily) and 3 bathrooms.
The spacious deck is wonderful for outdoor enjoyment, w/ hot tub and a barbecue grill.
The property itself is located on a private land 12000 m2 (3 acres) with beautiful mountain view and the river Varmá runs through with a magical and calm feeling.
Following is the room arrangement to look at:
1. Master bedroom with a king size bed and a walk in closet and a private
bathroom with a shower and a sink, but without a toilette.
2. Bedroom with one queen size bed and a daybed (the queen can also be separate two singles)
3. Bedroom with one queen size bed and a kid´s bed
4. Bedroom with a queen size bed or used as two single beds
5. There are two more wonderful bathrooms in the house, one with a good
spacious shower and one with a big bathtub.
6. There are some extra mattresses to be used too.
There is wifi/internet in the house.
The house is on a private land with plenty of parking in front of it.
It takes 30 minutes to drive from Reykjavik to Hveragerði.
Great open kitchen/living area and plenty of spacious bedrooms in separate wings for privacy and a great family vacation.
Close to many great attractions and a wonderful place for adventurous day trips.

Fantastic Home and Location
The listing is accurate except the home is better in person. Perfectly located in the middle of the golden circle giving you access to all of the major sites in your rental car. Restaurants and a grocery store in town - Highly recommended.

Amazing Home
I cannot say enough good things about this property. It has a wonderful location. We were close enough to town to enjoy restaurants and grocery stores, but remote enough to go hiking from the yard and enjoy nature. It was clean, well-appointed, and Kristin the owner, was wonderful. The drive to the national park and the crater wasn’t long at all. We experienced a lot of rain during our stay which made the sights difficult, however it was great to come home to a warm home at the end of the day. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat and recommend it.

Great location and good size house
We chose this house for the size and proximity to specific sites we wanted to visit. The house had many extras that made it feel like home. The location of the home was perfect. It was central to the area we wanted to visit, from Vik to Reykjavik to the Fagradalsfjall Volcano to the Gulfoss Waterfall. There's also a grocery store in town to grab snacks for the drive or purchase food to fix at the house. Don't forget about the bakery. It opens early and is a nice treat, as well.
