Perfect quiet stay in nature
Pros:

We had a great stay at Guesthouse Nyp. The owners and the people who work there are very nice and make you feel at home as soon as you arrive. The place is perfect to relax and enjoy the view or walk to the ocean. The room was clean and comfortable.

Beautiful gem at the coast, far away from the crowds
Pros:

Very beautiful house at the coast, all alone away from the crowds. Little walks to the beach and the river can be done directly from the house. The owners have wonderfully renovated this house and it is a gem! Besides little walks we enjoyed a lot staying in our nice room or beautiful common area. The breakfast and dinner are homemade and delicious- made with love. It has been so nice chatting with the owners and learning a bit about the history of the building and culture of Island.
The unpaved street is easy to drive and on 20 minutes you are back to the main road.
We enjoyed our stay so much- thank you Thora, partner and staff for making this a unique experience.

Zimmer etwas eng, Rest aber fein
Pros:

Altes Haus, stylisch renoviert;
sehr schöner Aufenthaltsraum, hohe Wände, viel Licht
Mega Aussicht aufs Meer
Abgeschiedene Lage im nirgendwo

Cons:

Unser Zimmer hatte max. 10 qm, es war Mini. Wir haben unsere beiden Reisetaschen abstellen können, aber sonst auch nichts, groß bewegen konnte man sich in dem Zimmer nicht und wir sind beide schlank. Das Bett war 140 cm breit und hatte sehr weiche Matratzen
Aus Platzgründen hatte das Zimmer kein Waschbecken im Zimmer so wie bei den anderen Guesthouses, die wir gebucht hatten
1 geteiltes Bad mit Dusche, WC und Waschbecken, alles in einem Raum, ist zu wenig für 5 Gästezimmer, separate Toilette wäre gut
Haus ist hellhörig

Perfect stay at a hidden gem
Pros:

Beautiful property in a very quiet and peaceful area. The staff were amazing. They offered a delicious home cooked dinner made from local ingredients for purchase. It was so good—lamb stew! I also walked to the beach and went jogging along the road to see more astonishing scenery. I was so surprised and impressed! Ness was wonderful too.

Cons:

Everything was perfect
