Kálfafellsstaður Guesthouse is a quaint, quiet B&B about 20 minutes NE of Diamond Beach. The property is clean and picturesque. Thora's breakfast was delicious and diverse.
There's a sweet church next door and a cemetery that produced some lovely photos.
She has a no shoes inside policy. No problem, but I would have brought slippers if I'd known.
The room is small and it is a shared bathroom, but when we really needed to go and another guest was in there, Thora said we could use another one downstairs.
The only other downside was not the property itself. It is a long way from restaurants and they close early compared to the U.S. Even the 24-hour gas station stores were closed. So if you stay here, I'd bring some energy bars or frozen dinners and put them in the downstairs fridge just in case you can't find a place that's open. It actually might not be a bad thing if she sold something like that for people who weren't about to pick up dinner.
Overall a lovely place to stay. I would definitely stay there again if I have an opportunity to go back to Iceland.
