This contemporary penthouse overlooking central Norrmalm is a place to stop you bang in your tracks. A homage to modern design, floor-to-ceiling windows, and sleek finishes expertly fuse together over two floors of utter luxury. Head out onto the vast terrace, where unobstructed panoramic views of Stockholm's skyline spread out before you. With different zones for lounging and a barbecue, you could easily watch day turn into night from here. Back inside, there's a dining and kitchen space made for action with Smeg appliances, so you're all set to host a glamorous dinner party. Or let a professional chef and mixologist take care of the meal and cocktails; your host knows the person for the job. In the bedrooms, expect crisp white linens and those jaw-dropping views again – we'll leave you to decide who lucks out on the master bedroom with en-suite steam and sauna shower. And should you ever be tempted to leave this home, you'll find bustling street life unfolding right on your doorstep, with a myriad of shops, cafes, and restaurants close by and two subway stops, Rådmansgatan and Hötorget, just five minutes away on foot. The lovely Humlegården park is just around the corner (eleven minutes on foot), too – the perfect green oasis to escape the bustle, if just for a while.

The Sky's the Limit

Cute as a reindeer’s button nose, this log cabin sits in the Finnish wilderness. The shores of Lake Vanttausjärvi are 20 metres away where you can take a boat out in summer for a spot of fishing (a rowing boat and outboard are included with a stay here). But it’s winter when this place really comes into its own. A cosy classic cabin vibe awaits, as towering pines are laden with snow and the scenery is blissfully silent. You may even spot the Northern Lights above. As snow blankets the land, keep warm in the outdoor hot tub or with a session in the garden sauna. Then there’s the lakeside summer kitchen, which could be a misnomer as it’s heated and a delight to cook in during the winter months too. Perhaps grill some of your own freshly-caught fish in the wood fire here. 

Inside, this home has all the trappings of a traditional log cabin – antler candelabra, whitewashed log walls on display and a wood-burning stove at the heart of the home. A picture-frame window displays the snowy landscape proudly, particularly enjoyable when curled up with a cup of cocoa on the L-shaped sofa. A full kitchen provides everything you need for self-catering, and the closest shop is a ten-minute snowmobile ride (or even-minute drive) away in Vanttauskoski. 

Lappish Dream

Character, charm and a great location are just some of the highlights of this apartment. There are plenty of personal touches and home comforts including a wood burning fire, a record player and books. You’ll love settling into the cosy living room and the bedrooms make it easy to switch off and unwind. It’s worth noting the apartment is on the third floor with no lift access, but you will find all the essentials you could need for a relaxing break. It’s also just a ten-minute stroll to Trondheim Spektrum, while the nearest shops and public transport links can be found within five-minutes.  


The Rare Vintage

Sitting close to the coastline on one of the approximately 24,000 islands in the Stockholm Archipelago, this address benefits from not only a private dock, but also a motor boat you can borrow to explore your surroundings a little further. Alternatively, if you're more than content to sit and admire it from afar, there are alfresco tables in the pretty garden from which to dine and gaze out at peaceful waters.

This being Scandinavia, there are certain points in the year in which you'll simply want to coop up inside and it's more than possible to get toasty and warm here. Not only are there wood-burning fireplaces dotted about the communal spaces, but there's also one in the spa-style bathroom, complete with a tub and relaxation area. We're also particularly fond of the homely design throughout, from the rustic kitchens and bright living spaces to the soft rugs underfoot.

Part of the beauty of this address is its sense of isolation and privacy, although this does mean you'll have to hop in the car and potentially on a ferry for restaurants and attractions. That being said, the host can arrange for a private chef to visit the home, which makes life easier somewhat.



Where the Magic Happens

Found in Vuokatti Ski Centre, this apartment is a lovely spot to return to after a day of tearing up the slopes. Not only is there a crackling fireplace in the living room next to which you can warm cold fingers, but there's also an electric sauna so you can fully embrace a Finnish tradition.

An added bonus comes in the shape of a balcony with forest views and some seating from which to enjoy this peaceful vista. You also appreciate this scenery rom the communal living space, which is full of comfy furnishings and some pretty jazzy curtains.

Interior design aside, there's a simple reason why people consider this address — the resort's slopes can be reached in a mere five minutes on foot, along with a pair of restaurants. In addition to skiing, the banks of Jäätiönlampi lake can be reached in six minutes' drive and the town of Kajaani is half an hour away.

Favourite Jumper

Situated on the banks of Lake Kiltua, this cosy cabin is as comfortable as it is stylish. Although it's a typical lakeside retreat on the outside, step through the front door and you'll find a thoroughly modern and chic living space. Cooking up a storm is easy in the fully-equipped kitchen, and come evening, the all-important wood-burner will keep you feeling toasty and warm. Make the most of the beautiful lake views and enjoy alfresco meals on the deck, grilling up a storm as the unforgettable night sky twinkles overhead. And you can't have a Finnish getaway without a steam in the on-site sauna – we think it's the perfect way to end the day.

Those seeking an active holiday can enjoy hiking, fishing and berry picking nearby. Take the boat out onto the lake and soak up the sunshine, or for a bit more action, the owner can organise guided hunting, fishing and trekking trips. In the warmer months, wander over to Jyrkänkoski Ironworks and check out the museum, cafe and summer theatre or, for ultimate relaxation, rent a mobile hot tub and soak under the stars.

Steady As the Woods

A stay in Lapland is all about the scenery, and this place in Sallatunturi doesn't disappoint. Surrounded by pristine forest, ponds and lakes, it's in a tourist resort south of Salla. Perfect for skiers (the Salla Ski Resort is just a five-minute drive away) and for hikers (it's set in the newly formed Salla National Park), it's a stunning part of the country, just an hour and a half from Kuusamo Airport. A cabin-style, ground floor apartment in a small resort, it's a modern and super comfortable way to experience life beyond the Arctic Circle. Here, the hassles of day-to-day life melt away in the home's private sauna or in front of the wood-burning stove. Step out onto your terrace each day and breathe in the freshest of air, while breakfast cooks in the fully kitted-out kitchen. With plenty of room for a family, you can relax in the warm, timber home after a day out adventuring. Then head down to the pond where you'll find a traditional shared cooking hut. Out and about you'll find plenty to do – go husky sledging or reindeer riding at the nearby Salla Reindeer Park, visit the local war museum to learn about the Battle of Salla or go white water rafting on the Oulanka River. You may even spot the Northern Lights overhead in the evenings.

Antlers & Lichen

Perched on the banks of lake Yli-Suolijärvi in northern Finland, this recently-finished cabin is a wonderful place for a wintery escape. There are four pairs of snowshoes, as well as a bobsleigh, sledges and sliders available for guests to use to explore the immediate vicinity. Kirintövaara resort takes twenty minutes to reach in the car, as does Riisitunturi National Park. And then, once you've spent a few hours having fun in the snow, you can return to the home to warm up. This being Finland, there's a sauna in the house for you to take advantage of, but there's also underfloor heating and a hot tub outside, if you're feeling particularly brave. After a hearty dinner prepared in the minimalist kitchen, we can imagine no more satisfying end to the day than lounging about on the leather sofas and watching the snow fall through the window that takes up one side of the living room.

Saint Nicholas

Located moments from the picturesque Baltic Sea waterfront, this Katajanokka studio apartment provides an ideal base for city breakers or remote workers. This minimal and modern pad is situated within an aparthotel, so you can expect housekeeping and enjoy access to the on-site gym here. If work is on the agenda, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly space, too. Within walking distance you’ll find wine bars, restaurants and galleries, while the inner city’s museums and sights can be easily reached by tram – there are multiple stops a short walk away.

Helsinki Haven

With idyllic lake views, a private sandy beach and a Jacuzzi, this home has everything you could need for a refreshing retreat on the edge of Lake Enäjärvi. Soak in the natural elements while relaxing on the terrace. There is also a wood-fired sauna in the external cottage and the rooms have everything you could need to switch off, socialise and spend quality time together. Days here can be spent fishing, cycling, hiking or exploring the region. It’s just also just a short drive or leisurely walk into the heart of Sammatti where you’ll find a grocery store and restaurant. 


Serenity of the Lake

Press pause on everyday life and lose yourself in the rugged landscapes of Sotkamo, beautiful at every time of year. Nestled amongst evergreen trees, this apartment is just a five-minute walk away from the ski slopes, and offers the perfect opportunity to get back to nature. 

Step inside, and you'll notice that there is a Nordic theme to the living space, with comfy furniture and a muted colour palette. Brew a fresh cup of coffee and curl up on the sofa beside the window to admire the snow or watch the summer sun glinting through the trees. When you get hungry, whip up some family favourites in the sleek kitchen, or step onto the balcony and fire up the barbeque for an alfresco feast if the weather allows. Kids can keep busy at the nearby play park, and at the end of the day you can do as the Finns do and enjoy an invigorating session in your very own sauna. 

If you're planning to shred some powder then the location couldn't be more convenient – you can be first onto the slopes of Vuokatti Ski Resort each morning. During the summer months, there are several trails where you can hike or cycle through the beautiful forests. If you fancy hiring a boat, then you can sail around one of the nearby lakes, and you can even go fishing to catch your own dinner – there are countless opportunities for adventure here. 

Pine View

If you want to stay just a few steps away from Vuokatti Ski Resort, in the Sotkamo area of Finland, then this is the place for you. This cosy apartment is perfect for outdoor-loving groups of friends or families and makes a brilliant place to return to after a long day on the mountain. 

The cosy living space is the ideal spot to curl up with a cup of hot coffee as you plan the day's activities. Light up the fire and get cosy as you watch the snow from the window, or rent a projector to watch a blockbuster on the big screen. When you get hungry, whip up your favorite dishes in the sleek kitchen or head outside to the balcony and grill up some hearty fare on the barbeque. And, you can round off each day with a sweaty session in the sauna – it is the Finnish way, after all. 

Skiiers and snowboarders can be on the slope within five minutes, and there are plenty of runs for thrill-seekers of all stages. In the warmer months, you can use this home as a base for hiking and cycling through the magical landscapes. Hire a boat to explore one of the many lakes, or organise a fishing trip to catch your own dinner – for lovers of nature, this home is an excellent pick.
