Peace, tranquillity and comfort

Even better than the pictures suggest. The cottage is very remote but easy to find with a decent sat nav. Even though we stayed during a cold spell in June, the cottage is perfectly comfortable. The lake is beautiful to look at but we weren't able to get on it due to the weather. What is really nice is that this is someone's cottage and feels like home rather than a sterile holiday rental. Mikko is very helpful and just a call away if any troubles. As there were only 2 of us, we didn't use the upstairs bedroom. The stairs are steep and the headroom low. All in all, a perfect holiday rental and highly recommended. Just take plenty of mosquito spray as Finnish mozzies are very aggressive

Very comfortable and thoughtfully appointed cabin in an idyllic location

We spent several days at this wonderful property and loved every minute of it! The location is very beautiful, on a peaceful and quiet lake, with a kayak and rowboat available for our use - we spent a lot of time on the water or just sitting on the dock enjoying the view. We also appreciated the fantastic sauna and loved alternating between the heat and dips in the cold lake. My daughter used one of the bikes for exploring the area and we found a lovely little chapel in the woods, which was a highlight along with all the wildflowers and wild berries. The grill was nice for barbecuing, and there is great shopping for groceries and other items about 15 minutes away. The cabin had all the amenities we needed to be comfortable and was very clean. Would be a great location to bring younger children - there's a sandbox with toys, a trampoline, etc. Mikko was thoughtful and communicated clearly leading up to our stay. Highly recommend and look forward to visiting again!

Tolles Haus

Sowohl die Lage wie auch das Haus sind toll. Die Benutzung zu zweit ist optimal. Mit kleinen Kindern nicht empfehlenswert wegen der steilen Treppe. Mit Teenager aber Top.
