Cottage with Glass Bubble and Hot Tub

Experience a unique glamping adventure in a glass dome with a Hot Pot AND an Icelandic cottage in the same booking

Sleep under the stars ( and maybe nothern lights) in a cozy bed without sacrificing the comforts of a modern and snug accommodation. Enjoy the outdoor hot pot to relax and admire the surrounding nature. Take advantage of the exclusivity of a fully equipped, tastefully decorated glass dome and a 60 sqm Icelandic cottage

Cottage

Beautiful typical Icelandic house fully equiped ( size 60 sqm - 650 ft2 ) sitting on a 10 000sqm land. In the middle of the golden circle. Close to geysir, gulfoss and þingvellir and located less than 1 hour from Reykjavik and less than 2h from Vík

Hot Pot

Big hot pot with geothermal water from the ground

Bubble

Glass dome of 16 sqm with queen size bed, feather duvet, electrical heating and heated under-mattress

Full access to the bubble, the hot pot and the cottage

You'll need a car to access at the accommodation

During winter ( november to april ), a 4x4 could be necessary for the last kilometer

The bed in the glass dome is only for 2. The owner will decline all responsibility if you book for 4 people and you have to argue with the other 2 people about who is sleeping in the dome :)

Please note that this is glamping. This means that although there is heating in the dome, if the outside temperatures are negative, you will not be able to heat the inside of the bubble to 20°C. But everything is planned for your comfort: heating, feather duvet and heated under-mattress.

Ideal family retreat
We are so thankful for Youri’s sharing this place with us! It was a delight for our family to stay here. The hot pot was such a treat. And the location out in the country side was so ideal - away from it all and yet so close to so many sights and adventures! We highly recommend the Farmer’s Bistro mushroom restaurant in Flúðir.

Perfect peaceful home from home
Far enough away from everywhere to feel private/isolated yet drivable to shop, restaurant, The Secret Lagoon, Geysirs, Golden Circle and longer drive to Vik. Wonderful hot tub was huge bonus. Hosts were totally wonderful and very responsive . Loved every minute and would go back. Perfect little home xxx

Lovely property
We really enjoyed our time in this property, the host were very helpful and their recommendation of a 4*4 was spot on. The house was very well equipped with lots of little touches like herbs and spices. According to my kids the WiFi was good, so a good time was had by all.

Fantastic property - cosy, great location and well equipped. Nice touch to be able to use Netflix and Spotify on the smart tv. Hot tub was fantastic and we used it every night. Very close to various sights in the golden circle. Highly recommended and can’t wait to stay again.
