Property Description

Property Summary

Nestled in the heart of Finland, this remarkable holiday rental in Saarijärvi invites you to step back in time and immerse yourself in the serene atmosphere of early 20th-century rural life. Set on a working farm approximately 85 km northwest of Jyväskylä, the property is a beautifully preserved log-built main building dating from 1901 and thoughtfully renovated in 1995. The old buildings, each with their own yards, exude a genuine village-like character, partly surrounded by untouched wilderness, while the homely interior pays careful respect to period furniture, original objects, and traditional textiles. The farm is powered by solar energy, reflecting a deep commitment to sustainable living, and tenants are provided with biodegradable detergents along with the option of waste sorting, ensuring that the conservation of biodiversity remains a central value of the stay. The property accommodates guests across multiple floors, offering a living room with 2 additional beds, a TV room, and a bedroom with 2 beds on the ground floor, as well as a bedroom with 2 beds, 2 small bedrooms each with 2 beds, and partly low ceilings on the upper floor, which is accessed via steep stairs. Both the ground floor and the upper floor feature a living room, kitchen, and shower facilities. The farm warmly preserves the old atmosphere throughout its interior, creating an experience that is as authentic as it is comfortable.

Outdoors

The outdoor spaces of this property are a true celebration of nature and traditional Finnish rural life.

A wood-burning beach sauna is available during warmer months, providing an authentic Finnish sauna experience directly by the water, while in winter this is replaced by an indoor wood sauna. The varied natural landscape of Lamminkangas is yours to explore comfortably via the paths and roads marked on the map provided at the cabin, guiding you through the surrounding wilderness at your own pace. For outdoor dining and cooking, a gas grill and a kettle grill are available, though guests are kindly asked to bring their own charcoal and lighter fluid for the kettle grill.
