KELOKAIRA

A cosy hideaway in the wilderness! Spend an evening away from it all in a charming log cabin nestled deep in the wilderness on the shore of Lake Torassieppi. Experience a taste of relaxed Finnish cabin life close to nature as you unwind in the soft heat of the wood heated sauna and watch the stars, and maybe even the Northern Lights flickering overhead in the outdoor hot tub. Admire the forest and lake views as you enjoy a snowshoe walk, try a spot of ice fishing or just grill a sausage or two over the roaring fire in the Lappish kota tent while listening to stories of Lapland and the surrounding silence. Dinners are always a treat sat in the cosy main building with its old pine logs and roaring fireplace. And for those staying overnight the cosy cabins offer a comfortable base, in which to share stories of the day in the living room before retiring to bed.
