Finland is famous for its sauna culture and stunning lake scenery. Experience a unique Finnish cottage holiday with your own sauna, private beach and woodland. Whether you choose a seasonal summer cottage, known in Finnish as the “mökki”, or a rustic log cabin, you’ll find many that offer their own private land so that you’ll be guaranteed your own space, perhaps running from the hot sauna down to the water to cool off, or fishing from the end of your own personal jetty. They also offer great access to the lakes, some having their own boats and other equipment. Sizes vary from small, two-person cottages to those catering for large groups, so you’ll be sure to find something that suits you.
The holiday villages of Oravi and Järvisydän have particularly high quality cottages and hotel suites, and are within arm’s reach of the beautiful National Parks Linnansaari and Kolovesi.

They are also conveniently close to nearby services including a spa, pools, recreation routes and restaurants.
