Property Summary

Nestled in the serene Finnish countryside of Pyhäsalmi, Finland, this charming wooden cottage offers an exceptional holiday rental experience for families and small groups seeking a peaceful retreat in nature. Built in 1995, the cottage is positioned just 30 metres from the shores of Lake Pyhäjärvi, a vast and beautiful lake stretching 20 kilometres in length and 10 kilometres in width, renowned for its shallow waters, sandy bottom, and scattered cobblestones. The property is located approximately 190 kilometres north of Jyväskylä, making it an ideal escape from urban life.

Comfort throughout the seasons is ensured by an air source heat pump. Guests also have access to a summer house with a fireplace, providing a cosy additional living space. A traditional wood-burning sauna situated directly by the lake, just 10 metres from the water, completes this authentic Finnish retreat. A private rowing boat is available for guests to enjoy directly from the property, and an electric outboard motor is also provided for added convenience on the water.

Outdoors

The outdoor spaces of this property are thoughtfully arranged to make the most of the stunning lakeside setting. A grill shelter and a barbecue area positioned by the shore invite guests to enjoy alfresco dining and convivial evenings in the open air, with the tranquil waters of Lake Pyhäjärvi as a backdrop. The sauna by the lake, located just 10 metres from the water's edge, offers an authentically Finnish experience, allowing guests to alternate between the warmth of the wood-burning stove and refreshing dips in the lake. The property's own rowing boat is moored nearby, providing direct and immediate access to the lake for leisurely excursions, fishing, or simply drifting across the calm surface of the water. The balcony on the upper floor of the main cottage extends the living space outdoors, offering a quiet spot to enjoy the natural surroundings at any time of day.
