this is us - Kathi & AlEX
We are a young couple running Hótel Hvítserkur and the farm Þorfinnsstaðir with passion and dedication. Originally from Germany, we’ve been living in Iceland since 2018.
After spending time working and studying on the island of fire and ice, we quickly fell in love with the country, its nature, and its culture. Along the way, we’ve gathered many valuable experiences and met great, supportive people — something we’re really thankful for.
It didn’t take long for us to realize that we wanted to make Iceland our permanent home.
Now, we’re incredibly excited to share this special place with guests from all over the world — and can’t wait to welcome you to our little paradise!
Hótel Hvítserkur & horse breeding
In the beautiful north-west of the country, on the Vatnsnes peninsula, we have acquired the farm Þorfinnsstaðir and the hotel Hvítserkur. We moved to our new home this fall and are currently working at full speed on renovating the hotel by next spring and open it in April 2023 as well as building changing the sheep house into horse stables. "Vængsstaðir" is our Icelandic breeding name since 2016 and we will continue using it as Vængsstaðir horsebreeding and Vængsstaðir horsetraining. Our service includes horsetraining, riding lessons and clinics, breeding mares and young horses fields, sale horses and more. Starting up young horses and educating them according to the horses talent and purpose is our passion, we believe a healthy and well educated horse makes their rider happiest! 😉 Feel free to contact us with any questions!
