We recently spent a week in Iceland, part holiday part photoshoot and an opportunity to get to know this amazing country.

Flying out of Bristol Airport with Easyjet was a breeze and the pick up the other end was faultless by the Thrifty Agent.

In no time we were heading of on our travels propelled by a nice shinny Ford Kuga Titanium X complete with studded winter tyres.

By the way a top tip is to buy you alchohol in duty free on the way into Iceland otherwise you are limited to oly being able to buy at the government licensed shops and the prices are eye watering.

We had chosen to rent a cottage about 11/2 hours from the airport near the town of Selfoss and we were soon pulling up at the gates, after stopping of at the local Budget store (a bit like Aldi) to stock up. By the way even in the cheaper stores food is still expensive.

Rosa the owner has 2 cottages and 2 more in construction during our visit They are immaculately appointed and we had a very comfortable stay. Check out Icelandic Cottages

Anyhow enough of that. Here are some of the images we managed to capture during our stay.
