If you go down to the woods today, you're sure of a big surprise; a warm and toasty home fit for any intrepid adventurer! From the moment you step through the front door, this lakeside cottage wraps you up in a warm embrace, welcoming you in with ultimate Nordic comfort. We love this home for its cosy atmosphere, wild location and ease of access to everything guests might need, including its own shore and rowboat for days when the water calls. Start each day the right way with a mug of something hot and a belly full of delicious local delights before grabbing your skis and heading to the slopes, which can be reached in a short eight-minute drive from the cottage. When the day is drawing to a close and the chill in your toes has you calling for warmth, head on home and relax in your private sauna, or snuggle up on the sofa, toasting marshmallows by the fireplace. For guests with children, a little quiet time is just around the corner as the PlayStation 2 and its arsenal of games will keep the kids entertained.

About Finland
Land of a thousand lakes, Finland is all about embracing the outdoors. In the south, it feels more like a series of islands as huge swathes of lake cut through the land. The way of life here is fish caught by your own hand, and smoked on the cabin terrace. Pine trees tower above and woodland walks and cycling is the way to immerse in nature. Summer brings endless daytime...
