Narfakot is an ocean front farmhouse with a private beach. The house is superbly placed standing on its own, surrounded by peaceful countryside in a geothermal area. The Blue Lagoon, Keflavikairport and Reykjavik city all within a short distance.
We are a family of four, all passionate about the nature of Iceland and enjoy travelling ourselves. For over ten years we have been working in the highlands during summers as hut wardens, welcoming and taking care of hikers from all over the world.
