Wonderful time. Delicious food, excellent room and attentive and friendly staff. Allround great place to stay.

The food was a highlight! Breakfast and dinner were very tasty and well presented. The culinary food workshop was amazing, the chef was a great teacher to learn classic Finnish dishes. The downside was the ‘off season’. Staff frequently said ‘something wasn’t available because of the off season’. 40 mins out of town and lunch was only available as a room order. The shuttle service was significantly reduced and a taxi in/out was an expensive trip. While in their ‘peak’ season this would be a must to visit and stay. More awareness on the website and from staff beforehand to plan accordingly would be of benefit. A beautiful and tranquil escape for the solo or couple travelling North Finland.

We stayed 4 nights and we had such an amazing stay. The suite was stunning. More than big enough for two people and we loved having the private sauna and private outdoor hot tub. We had the most beautiful ice cold winter weather so we were able to enjoy the outdoors in a warm tub. Just perfect. Only thing we did miss was some closets/storage for clothes in the suite. Having breakfast/dinner looking out into the woods covered in snow was amazing and so relaxing. The food was good and the people - everyone - was very friendly and service minded. It was an awesome long weekend and we'd love to come back one day.
