LOG CABINS
 

The Arctic

The Nordic
open-plan cabins sleep 2 in a double bed and are more spacious than the above. They have a private bathroom and sauna, kitchenette and lounge area.

QUEEN SUITE
 

The ultimate choice! This spacious open-plan cabin has an impressive 4-poster bed, velvet drapes through to a bathroom with a rain shower and roll top bath, a kitchenette with breakfast bar, a comfortable lounge area with open fire, a large sofa scattered with lots of handcrafted cushions, a private sauna and the addition of a private outdoor hot tub. This very special cabin is available as an upgrade.

TRADITIONAL FINNISH HOUSE
 

Just behind the main restaurant is a delightful yellow, wooden house built and decorated in a typical style. It sleeps two adults and extra beds can be added for children. The house is quite spacious and evokes a feeling of a bygone era – all the fixtures and fittings may resemble a living museum but the ambience is charming and full of character.

HONEYMOON CABIN
 

This traditional turf cabin is understandably, quite different to the others. It has a specially designed bed (with an unusual feature which will be revealed on arrival!), a bathroom with a ‘starry night sky’ ceiling, free standing roll top bath and a private sauna. As there is no lounge area, the open fire is in the bedroom.

ICE ROOMS
 

These sleep up to 4 in polar sleeping bags on single mattresses covered with woollen throws, on top of a large ice bed. They are situated across the frozen river from the main reception (about a 5 minute walk) and are either within the ice building which houses the chapel or in a separate ice ‘block.’ The interior temperatures are maintained between 0°C and -6°C. During your night here, luggage will be stored in a room near reception. Heated washroom facilities and sauna are located nearby. We recommend you spend your first night in an ice room, or you may wish to consider keeping your cabin if the overnight is any other night of your stay, so that you have a warm room to use during the day.

GLASS IGLOOS
 

These amazing structures are set amongst the trees, behind the ice rooms and sleep 2 in single beds, although a third bed can be added for a child. They have a WC and wash basin. Heated washroom facilities are located nearby. These are very popular and tend to get booked up early!
