This wooden cottage in Rovaniemi sits about 33 km northwest of the town centre, beside L.Sonkajärvi in a calm lakeside setting. The shore is shallow with a hard sandy bottom, and the cottage has its own boat for days on the water. A village road runs between the cottage and the shore, and the natural conditions can change with water levels.
Inside, the cottage is arranged for easy holiday living. The main floor brings together the living room and kitchen, with a bedroom that has a double bed. Upstairs there is a second bedroom with two beds, plus a sleeping loft with a convertible sofa and two mattresses, so the cottage suits both families and small groups.
After time outdoors, the electric sauna is ready, along with a washroom and separate toilet. A glazed terrace and balcony give you extra space to sit out and take in the lake atmosphere, while the heat-storing fireplace adds warmth and a classic cottage feel.
From here, you can head to Ounasvaara, visit Arktikum in Rovaniemi, or reach the Arctic Circle for a day out. Lehtojärvi’s cultural and hiking route is also nearby, with birdwatching and rock-climbing spots along the way. In winter, ski tracks and a snowmobile route are within easy reach.
