A wonderful place if you have the kids in tow, Vatnsholt is located about 16km southeast of Selfoss, just 8km off the Ring Road. Here you’ll find over 30 sun-filled bedrooms and cottages scattered throughout a sweeping farmstead with views to Eyjafjallajökull, Hekla and Vestmannaeyjar. It does buffet meals, too.
Bike rentals, a restaurant, a menagerie of animals and an elaborate playground could have you staying longer than you expect.
