Jón and Rósa
In 1983 Rósa Finnsdóttir and Jón Hólm Stefánsson bought the Gljúfur farm. They ran Gljúfur as a dairy farm but also farming sheep and horses. In 2001 they changed the main focus from diary farming to tourism. The first two cabins were build in the summer of 2001. Another five in 2002 and the last one in 2003. Total eight cabins under the company name of Gljúfurbústaðir.
Rósa has great interest in embroidery and all sorts of hand craft. This can be seen in her many handcrafted items within the cabins. Jón has been singing in quartets, choirs and solo most of his adult life and a CD with his singing can be found in the cabins. Jón and Rósa are both very interested in forestry and are part of the organization of forest farmers in Iceland. The farm has taken part in the reforestation if Iceland program since 1999, in which time more than 200.000 trees have been planted, most of them by Rósa. Rósa has also great interest in gardening as can be seen around the farm houses.
The cabins are 3km from highway one, up against the mountains with view of the neighbouring farm area to the south. Located 6 km from Hveragerði, 12 km from Selfoss and 40 km from Reykjavík. Horse riding and horse shows within 5 km, geothermally heated swimming pools and golf courses within 12 km.
