The house is very beautiful and excellently equipped, boat, canoes and bicycles available for use, tour suggestions and comprehensive information about the house and activities by the owner, very good on-site support.
Das Haus ist sehr schön und hervorragend ausgestattet, Boot, Kanus und Fahrräder zur Benutzung vorhanden, Tourenvorschläge und umfassende Informationen zu Haus und Aktivitäten durch den Eigentümer, sehr gute Betreuung vor Ort.
Very nice house on a large natural plot on the lake with a small sandy beach. The country road is quite busy (at least during our stay) and quite noisy.
Sehr schönes Haus auf einem großen Naturgrundstück am See mit kleinem Sandstrand.
Die Landstraße ist doch recht stark befahren (zumindest während unseres Aufenthalts) und recht laut.This text is automatically translated. -

Cleaning could be better. And some fresh pillows. 4 stars for the location, tranquility and space
Schoonmaken kan beter. En wat frisse kussens.
4 sterren voor de lokatie, rust en ruimteIt was a super quiet location. Environment also plenty to do. Before you get to the lake you have to walk a bit through private forest path down. Also was houses in the area but you notice nothing of that. Everyone on Finnish rule must stay 50meter from each other's house. Wonderful.We were there for fishing, canoeing and cycling and that with 3 children between 9 and 17 years.It was a heat wave in the country since 50 years, though, and this cottage is not made for that, so holds heat. After all, built with 3 double windows for cold.Other than that had a great time. Some dated bathroom and beds. It could be a bit cleaner. Hence our 7.
Het was een super rustige lokatie. Heel fijn daar te zijn.
Omgeving ook genoeg te doen. Voordat je bij het meer komt dien een een stukje door eigen bospad te wandelen naar beneden toe. Ook was huisjes in de omgeving maar daar merk je niks van. Iedereen op Finse regel moet 50meter van elkaar zijn huis blijven. Heerlijk.
Wij waren er voor vissen, kanoen en fietsen en dat met 3 kinderen tussen 9 en 17 jaar.
Het was wel sinds 50 jaar een hittegolf in het land, en daar is dit huisje niet voor gemaakt, dus houdt warmte vast. Immers gebouwd met 3 dubbele ramen voor kou.
Verder prima vermaakt. Wel wat gedateerde badkamer en bedden. Het zou wat schoner mogen. Vandaar onze 7.This text is automatically translated. -

It is a nice house, big enough for 4 people. For 6 it is a bit cramped, at least the tables (both outside and inside).The sauna is nice.The kitchen contains a lot of stuff for cooking. An oven would be a nice addition.Lovely bikes and canoes are available. And also a rowing boat. Super nice, we have regularly sailed a round with the canoes and cycling. An improvement would be a description of the sauna and handling garbage with an option to also be able to separate. With 2 you will not make it in Finland.
Het is een lekker huis, voldoende groot voor 4 personen. Voor 6 is het wat krap, in ieder geval de tafels (zowel buiten als binnen) .
De sauna is lekker.
De keuken bevat veel spullen om te koken. Een oven zou een mooie uitbreiding zijn.
Heerlijke fietsen en kano’s zijn beschikbaar. En ook een roeiboot. Super fijn, we hebben regelmatig een rondje gevaren met de kano’s en gefietst.
Een verbeterpuntje zou zijn een beschrijving van de sauna en afhandeling vuilnis met een optie om ook te kunnen scheiden. Met 2 redt je het niet in Finland.The cottage is located on a nice piece of land, unfortunately the road is quite close and is busy at some times of the day. Furthermore, there is a nice terrace partially covered, so you could sit there well even in the evening.
Het huisje ligt op een mooi stukje land, helaas ligt de weg best wel dichtbij en is op sommige momenten van de dag druk.
Verder is er een lekker terras gedeeltelijk overkapt, waardoor je er ook in de avond goed kon zitten.This text is automatically translated.
