Experiencing this beautiful part of the world is on a lot of bucket lists, and with a home like this it's easy to see why. Built on a rocky slope, where the still waters of Lake Kuorikkajärvi lap at the edge of the forest, this place scores highly on location alone. Inside, with high vaulted ceilings, a mezzanine loft room and a sleek modern kitchen, it's less of a cabin and more of a sophisticated lake house. The living space has huge windows to frame those perfect views, and an oversized sofa facing the fireplace for cosy evenings indoors. But if you're here in the summer months, the chances are you'll be here for the great outdoors. Barbecue on the home's deck, light one of the campfires overlooking the water, and gaze at the stars from the shore. You'll have your own jetty and a rowing boat, so you can spend days in or on the water. There's a typical lakeside cabin for your private use, with a wood-fired sauna, but you'll also have the option of the electric sauna inside the home. To top it all off, the host can add in a few extras. Book the use of... a Jacuzzi on your deck, or ask about meeting the animals at the farm they own nearby.

About Finland
Land of a thousand lakes, Finland is all about embracing the outdoors. In the south, it feels more like a series of islands as huge swathes of lake cut through the land. The way of life here is fish caught by your own hand, and smoked on the cabin terrace. Pine trees tower above and woodland walks and cycling is the way to immerse in nature. Summer brings endless daytime...
