A sheep farm by the sea

Móra is run by Silja Björg Ísafoldardóttir and Þórður, a married couple who both grew up in the countryside, Þórður right here. They keep about 100 sheep and 20 Icelandic hens and are happy to tell guests about the area. You can also buy farm products from them, such as smoked lamb.
