Property information

Við-Bót is a beautiful cottage located 9 km from Egilsstadir, East Iceland. It sits on the banks of Rangá river (where guests can fish for free). The cottage has sleeping facilites for four people. Ideal for families or groups.

Neighbourhood information

Our cottages are located right outside Egilsstaðir town. Around Egilsstaðir are many beautiful Fjords, such as Borgarfjörður Eystri (there you can see puffins) and Seyðisfjörður. Also there are a lot of hiking trails both in walking distance from the cottage and short car-rides away, we really recommend Hengifoss which is about 35 km away from the cottage.
