Perched on the edge of Lake Ähtärinjärvi, this log cabin is the perfect retreat in the Pohjanmaa region. With plenty of space, easy access to the water, and a soothing ambiance, it's the ideal place to kick back and relax between your adventures. The traditional wooden exterior gives way to a beautiful open-plan space that's great for socialising in style. Cook up some hearty fare in the kitchen while your guests stretch out beside the crackling fire and watch the snow falling outside. If the weather is warmer, you can fire up the grill and enjoy an alfresco meal on the terrace with the lake as a backdrop. And, should you want to fully embrace the Finnish way of life, there's even a sauna where you can sweat out your stresses and inhale the sweet scent of pinewood. Your host will provide a boat, so you can row out onto the shimmering lake, and there's a kid-friendly natural sand beach on the plot. Skiers can shred some powder at Valkealampi Ski Centre – it's just a 10km drive away from your front door. And, if you fancy hiking, riding, or cycling through the forests, then there are plenty of nearby... trails that will lead you through these dramatic landscapes.

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...
