Loppijärvi, 60°41′ N 24°25′ E

Your own headland. One hour from Helsinki.

Holiday cottage on Lake Loppijärvi in Finland: two cottages, a sauna and a hot tub. Room for 13.

Midsummer evening. The sun sinks to the northwest, straight behind the lake.

Then it travels on below the horizon, heading east. It never gets dark, and the colours behind the lake change all night.

Before four it rises again in the northeast. This is a night worth staying up for.

21:10
Hot tub among the pines on the lake shore, smoke rising from the flue

People come here for the quiet.

Water on three sides, hundreds of metres of your own shore and the neighbours far away.

A traditional cottage

Life here is what cottage life should be: simple, close to nature and quiet.

  • You wash the traditional way in the washroom: water is heated in a pot, mixed in a bucket and poured over you. The swimming spot is about twenty steps away.
  • Summer water runs to the kitchen sink and the sauna.
  • Drinking water is ready for you in canisters. There is also a water purifier making about 10 litres an hour.
  • For the little ones there is a high chair and a travel cot.
  • This is a place for quiet, so we do not rent to party groups.
  • The toilets are two traditional outhouses.
