More about this place
Drangar Country Guesthouse is a premium accommodation — a beautifully restored farm property offering a unique blend of history and modern comfort.
The guesthouse features 12 distinctive rooms, including themed accommodations such as the "Tractor Shed" and "Cow Barn," reflecting its agricultural heritage. Each room offers stunning views of the Skógarströnd coastline or surrounding mountains, and all include en suite bathrooms.
The renovation of Drangar was overseen by the award-winning architectural firm Studio Granda, which retained the farm's original structures while introducing contemporary design elements. The result is a harmonious balance of old and new, with warm interiors and thoughtful use of materials that pay homage to the farm's past.
You can enjoy the tranquil surroundings and are within easy reach of nearby towns like Stykkishólmur and Búðardalur. Drangar also serves as an excellent base for exploring the natural beauty of the Snæfellsnes Peninsula and the Dalir region.
