Deplar Farm, Ólafsfjörður, Iceland
View Original Description
Former sheepcote turned adventurers' havenDeplar Farm, a luxury hotel in Iceland's Troll Peninsula, plays coy, with its humble turf-roofed barns, but its modern-Icelandic interior feels cosily luxurious and styled to accommodate 21st-century wanderers; walls of windows frame an otherworldly landscape of mountains, streams and a glittering lake. Skiing, surfing (yes, really), trekking and horse riding are on offer for guests (some adventures are gratis, too) and an elegant spa with views and pools heated by geothermal energy await relaxation-seekers. Meals are included and courtesy of local farmers, brewers and fishermen, and come evening you can warm up by the fire with your Mr or Mrs Smith, or partake is a schnapps-inspired singalong. Brave the cold in song breaks for a chance of spotting the Northern Lights dance.
