Highland Base, a summer 2023 revelation by the Blue Lagoon hospitality group, manifests as a revolutionary retreat in Iceland’s untamed Ásgarður Valley. Straddling the line between rugged adventure and luxurious seclusion, Highland Base offers a unique blend of eco-conscious elegance and raw natural beauty. Masterminded by the creative synergy of Basalt Architects and Design Group Italia, its design ethos harmoniously intertwines with nature, adhering to BREEAM’s rigorous sustainability standards. The essence of this extraordinary destination lies in its ability to offer a diverse array of accommodation types, including the Highland Base Hotel with its mix of rooms, suites and luxury lodges, all embodying a cosy, minimalist charm that whispers a story of place, warmth and comfort.
