Each Glass Cottage is designed to offer a unique Icelandic experience. Choose between Blár, inspired by the colors of Iceland’s glaciers and lagoons, or Grænn, reflecting the hues of Icelandic moss and Northern Lights. Both cottages are tucked into a private stretch of lava fields, offering unmatched seclusion and views of Iceland’s natural beauty.
Each cottage has its own parking space, private hot tub, fully equipped kitchen (fridge, oven, stove, coffee maker, kettle, toaster). A glass bathroom where taking a shower looking at the volcanoes, stars, Northern lights is an unforgettable experience. To offer a fully immersive experience, we choose not to have a TV, using nature as a display instead. We guarantee connection with the outside world with a very good wifi.
At Glass Cottages, we provide everything you need to feel connected to nature while enjoying the comforts of sustainable luxury. Our cottages are equipped with eco-friendly amenities, cozy furnishings made from driftwood, hand-knitted wool textiles, and floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the breathtaking Icelandic landscape. Enjoy pure, fresh water from our private well, solar-heated interiors, and a peaceful environment designed to rejuvenate your senses. Each element of our facilities reflects our commitment to a seamless blend of comfort, sustainability, and immersion in nature’s tranquility.
We created a space where time doesn’t matter, you live fully surrounded by the elements. The cottages are a cocoon of comfort and the views of the sky, volcanoes, water and lava fields. The cottages offer the feeling of being part of nature in the comfort of a warm home. Relaxing in a hot tub at 40°C (104°F) alone in the middle of lava fields is one of the most unique experiences. The hot tub in Iceland is a place of conversation and relaxation, they are deprived of everything that can ruin the view and disturb the nature’s sounds like jets or lights.
