Englendingavik
In the old part of Borgarnes town (village) lies a beautiful cove, called "Englendingavík". The name interestingly enough means "The Englishman Cove (or Bay)". This place is both scenic  and peaceful,  where silence is only broken by the sound of birds and the ever changing sea. The old buildings standing at the bottom of the cove used to be the region´s center for trade and commerce but now they are housing the restaurant with attached lodging facilities. Besides the restaurant is a separate building called Sjávarborg "Height by the Sea", offering first rate home lodgings. The oldest building was constructed in 1885 but all the buildings were thoroughly renovated 10 years ago. The Englendingavík RestaurantWe put our emphasis on a relaxed and cozy atmosphere to go with the spirit of the old buildings by the Bay. As for food, we focus on Icelandic fish.   Opening hours summer 2021, daily from 13:00 to 21:00.  The restaurant has a one-of-a-kind view towards the sea, with its islands and rocks, teaming with bird life, as well as the occasional curious seal. The terrace extending south of the restaurant gives a good shelter from the north and north-eastern breeze. It is a real treat to sit there in the sun enjoying good food and drinks in a good company. The Sjávarborg home lodging facilitiesStanding close by the sea, Sjávarborg is a typically Icelandic corrugated iron building, dating from 1890. We offer comfortable lodgings, ranging from large family rooms, sleeping up to four people, and a variety of double rooms. All include full size beds with linen and a shared bathrooms.
