Skálakot Blogs

Located amid the stunning setting of rural southern Iceland, Skálakot is a sumptuously stylish boutique hotel that offers a unique opportunity for adventures in the ‘land of fire and ice’. Comprising just fourteen art-deco inspired rooms, this luxurious hotel has been owned by the same family for seven generations and prides itself on warm and personal hospitality. It is set on the family’s private farm, which breeds its own stables of friendly Icelandic horses, who can take guests out on guided tours of the stunning landscape. There is also a fine dining restaurant for guests to enjoy, which serves seasonal specialities and homegrown vegetables from breakfast through to dinner, plus outdoor steam baths and hot tubs for relaxing under the stars after a day of adventure. With glaciers, mountains and volcanoes all nearby, this is an ideal spot for exploring the wonders of Iceland.
