    A great place to stay when doing the Golden Circle. Grocery, pharmacy, gas stations etc nearby but you feel tucked away in the county side. The private hot tub is such a luxury to have! Sabine was a wonderful host, providing lots of helpful info...

At the horse farm Akurgerði lives a german-icelandic family. I, Sabine Girke, am from the South of Germany. My passion for the Icelandic Horse and my love for this beautiful country brought me 2010 to Iceland. I live here with my husband Daníel Ben and 3 children. We like to have personal contact with our guest and are at any time happy to help, so your vacation in Iceland becomes truly special. Beside some insider Tips we also offer riding tours on well trained and good horses.
There are many possible activities in our area, like hiking to a natural hot spring, fishing, golf, riding,... Many of Icelands natural sights like the Golden Circle, Þingvellir, many beautiful waterfalls and a volcano crater are in a short driving distance. The location of our farm Akurgerði is private and secluded, but at the same time we are just 2 minutes drive to the main Highway 1 and just 8 minutes drive to the towns Selfoss and Hveragerði where you can find several supermarkets and great restaurants.
