For our exclusive fly fishing combo trip in Iceland, we use three different lodges, all within thirty minutes drive of each other, all based on single rooms.
When fishing the Myrarkvisl and the Reykjadalsá, you’ll be staying at the Myrarkvisl and the Reykjadalsá Lodges. Each offer double bedrooms with an ensuite, a large living area, dining area, a fully equipped kitchen, wader/drying room, hot tub and outside BBQ.
Bedding is supplied, and cleaning is included. For your convenience, the Lodges also offer free high-speed wireless access. So you can check e-mails or send bragging photos to your friends, family and fellow anglers back home.
Self-catering and fully catered food packages are available. If you opt for the fully catered package, you will have the services of your own private chef. Breakfast usually consists of bacon, eggs, toast and oatmeal, and lunch is often carb-loaded, with pasta, soups, bread and lasagne. Dinner is two courses with either a starter and a main or main and dessert, and anglers and guides eat together.
The lodges don’t have a bar, so whatever catering package you pick, if you fancy a drink in the evenings, you’ll have to bring it with you. We recommend buying a bottle of your favourite tipple from duty-free at the airport.
When fishing the Laxá In Aðaldal, you’ll stay at the Brekka Guesthouse, which offers an array of accommodation, with 41 rooms in total, most of which are ensuite. There’s also a selection of cabins that feature kitchens and shared facilities.
The guesthouse features a restaurant on-site and serves a range of delicious food to keep you well fuelled throughout your trip. Every morning before you start your fishing day, a continental style buffet breakfast is served. For lunch, the kitchen will prepare a pack-up that can be taken and enjoyed by the river and finally, in the evening, a quality three-course menu is on offer, consisting of two choices of starters, three main courses, and a house-baked dessert. Much of the food is quality, locally sourced table fare.
