Other things to note
We own a dog with the name NALA. She is of the Coton de Tuléar breed. It has a medium-to-long, fluffy, cotton-like coat that is considered hair rather than fur. It is a non-shedding breed with low dander and is considered hypoallergenic. She is therefore not likely to create allergic reactions. She is small, barks seldom and really happy dog and friendly. We own as well a cat, which is called Skuggi (Shadow). He bears the name rightfully, as he usually goes about as he pleases, and is not much for imposing himself onto people. He usually goes away when strangers try to pet him, and is both quiet and clean. Many of our friends, that are allergic to cats, have not been affected by staying, even overnight. Skuggi is not allowed to the guest rooms when not in use by guests.

Where you’ll be

Mosfellsbær, Capital Region, Iceland

The natural surrounding offers a box of chocolate choices for everyone. May it be the walk down to the shore or light hike up Úlfársfell to see Reykjavik from above, it is only within 15 minutes walk. On the way you can swim in one of two swimming pools in the neighbourhood, or play golf at the golf course by the shore. The best bakery is only 10 minutes walk from the house with a coffee house and in the same house a great restaurant for light evening meals if needed. You are perfectly situated if you plan day trips to the west - Borgarnes, Akranes, Stykkishólmur and the south east coast, Þingvellir, Gullfoss, Geysir and many more places surrounding.
