The hosts at Húsatóftir 2a
The owners of Hestakráin are husband and wife Aðalsteinn Guðmundsson and
Ástrún Davíðson.
Aðalsteinn was born and raised at Húsatóftir - his family has lived
there since 1879. Aðalsteinn and Ástrún started their own farming thirty years
ago. They have over two hundred sheep and around one hundred horses.
The house where Hestakráin is situated was used for fox breeding. Aðalsteinn
and Ástrún were engaged in fox breeding for the fur industry until
1991. In 1998 the house was rebuild into a modern country inn and was given
the name Hestakráin - The
Equestrian Inn".
With a good reputation since 1987, Aðalsteinn and Ástrún also manage
a horse rental operation, Land&hestar,
on their farm. They offer different horse-riding tours, from
1 hour up to 6 days tours around their own vicinity and also way up into the
highlands of Southern Iceland.
In Hestakráin our main focus is to serve good Icelandic food
and provide personal service. All served lamb is from our own farm and the
vegetables come from the nearby villages of Flúdir and Laugarás.
We look forward to seeing you.
