In Finland’s summer months, when the sun barely dips below the horizon, you can enjoy hiking, glorious nature, music festivals and a buzzing outdoor café scene in the coastal cities. Take a luxury holiday to Finland in the winter, on the other hand, and find yourself transported to a magical, snow-covered realm illuminated by the aurora borealis.
‘Arctic Circle, Forest Views’
Arctic Treehouse is in Rovaniemi, Lapland and is on the site of SantaPark in the Arctic Circle. The accommodation offers views across the surrounding forest and the Northern Lights at certain times of the year. Rooms are decorated in a modern Scandinavian style using white, grey and faux fur fixtures with panoramic views across the forest. There are an on-site restaurant and bar serving contemporary dishes with a twist and a variety of wines, spirits and cocktails as well as a daily buffet breakfast.
‘Adults Only Wilderness Retreat’
Javri Lodge lies at the heart of Finnish Lapland in the village of Saariselkä. Founded by the Finnish president, it is surrounded by vast forests, lakes, rivers and villages that you can explore. Activities include cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, husky and reindeer safaris, while at the lodge there is an indoor pool, saunas and massage therapies. Rooms are cosy and the cuisine is locally sourced.
We believe that true luxury is only possible when all the details – the ones that really matter to you – are taken care of personally, professionally and to the highest standard.
