Fossatún Camping Pods & cottages – Sleeping bag accommodation

Fossatún Camping Pods & cottages – Sleeping bag accommodation

10/10 Excellent
"My wife and I stayed here for 4 days in August 2026 and had a fantastic time. The camping pod was clean and comfortable and offered everything we needed for a good sleep. Washrooms and showers were easily available and clean with plenty of hot water. The troll garden was an unexpected highlight of our trip and offered a breathtaking view of the surrounding scenery - we walked on it multiple times throughout our stay, both in the morning and evening. We dined in the bistro for our final supper and breakfast in Iceland and the food was so delicious and surprisingly reasonably priced (for Iceland 😁). We chatted with Steinar on our way out and he is an absolutely lovely person with a true passion for Iceland and trolls, all of which is reflected in Fossatún in its entirety. The only thing we didn’t get a chance to experience was the hot tubs, as they were always occupied whenever we wanted to go in them (to be fair, though, we were never around in the early evening as we were always out exploring other parts of Iceland until the sun went down at around 22:00). Also, the dryer was broken while we were there, so we had to air dry our clean clothes in our pod. But these are very minor quibbles that did nothing at all to diminish our overall experience. If we ever make it back to Iceland, we will make sure to stop by Fossatún for at least one night and another stroll in the troll garden."
