Lónkot Rural Resort

Set on a former farm a short drive north of Hofsós, family-run Lónkot Rural Resort has been welcoming guests since 1991 with a gourmet restaurant overlooking Skagafjörður bay.

The kitchen creatively fuses traditional Icelandic cuisine with contemporary gastronomy, drawing on flowers, herbs and berries from its own gardens alongside fresh fish and mountain lamb.

Its art-filled Sölva Salon dining room and remote coastal setting make it a destination meal in this quiet corner of the north.
