If you're looking for a base to explore the wild landscapes of Sotkamo, then this home is the one for you. It's just a five-minute stroll away from the piste, and has a range of family-friendly amenities, making it a great choice for groups who want to embrace outdoor living. There's a distinctly Nordic flavor to the sleek, minimalist interior, with comfortable furniture in muted shades. Pour a cup of coffee and flop down on the comfy sofa by the window and watch the snowflakes falling or admire the summer sun shining between the trees. You can cook up your favourite dishes in the smart kitchen, or head outside to the balcony, where you'll find a barbeque and wooden seating – it's perfect for alfresco meals breathing in the mountain air. Kids can run wild at the nearby play park, and you even have your own sauna – do as the Finns do and sweat out your stresses. The location is heaven for snowsports fans – you'll love being first onto the fresh powder each morning at Vuokatti Ski Resort. In the warmer months, there are plenty of nearby trails where you can hike or cycle through the pine forests. There are also countless lakes to explore by boat, and you can even go fishing to catch your own lunch – if you're a lover of the great outdoors, then it doesn't get better than this.
