VillaNorva

Superbe petite maison posée devant un lac enneigé l'hiver. Très belle pièce à vivre/chambre avec baie vitrée magnifique. Tout ce dont on a besoin est sur place et la communication est fluide. Proximité avec la ville (15mn de voiture).

Les toilettes sont sur le palier :)

Absolutely a unique stay. The cottage is beautiful& so we equipped. It is on the bank of a lake, absolutely stunning location. Near the airport & town centre. It’s heaven

There is lots to love about this property and its location. The hosts are simply the best hosts that we’ve experienced. They were always on hand (via WhatsApp’s) to ask any questions and they promptly answered. They gave us lots of brilliant information. The morning we were due to arrive, we asked them about ice fishing for our children - within two hours they had the equipment at the house ready for our arrival including the purchase of bait for them. The location of the cabin is amazing. About 15 minutes drive from the airport and 20 minutes from the centre of Rovaniemi. Its location set on a lake is simply beautiful. You feel like you are completely out in the wilderness. Most activities you would likely want to experience are between 20 -40 minutes drive from the house and really easy to get to. I would highly recommend renting a car due to its location, however, I did see people using taxis in the nearby area. The convenience of having a car for us far out weighed the use of having to book taxis etc. The roads are really well maintained and ‘fairly’ easy to agate once you get used to driving in snowy conditions. There are also lovely local walks to go directly from the cabin - the scenery is out of this world and it’s so quiet, it’s really quite special. The cabin is very clean. Extremely cosy - we never felt cold. You can easily dry your gloves, hats etc on the heaters in the kitchen, which was a must with our children. Whilst joined to the main cabin, you have to go outside to get into the toilet from another door which can a inconvenience in the nights but it really isn’t t a big deal. I took flip flops for us all so that we could quickly pop something on our feet to go back and forth. You really don’t need to put your ‘warm’ clothes on when walking outside to the toilet as it really isn’t about two steps. The shower and sauna are in the same location. Both are great.

The cabin is really quite small and whilst this was really cute and cosy, it was difficult to navigate with two adults and two children. There isn’t any space downstairs to sit together to eat. Downstairs is smaller than the upstairs sleeping area. The stairs are extremely steep. It was fine for us as our children are a little bit older but I wouldn’t recommend for really young children as it could be a hazard. We quite enjoyed the novelty of them but I can appreciate others may not. The stairs may be an issue if your child needs to use the toilet in the middle of the night. There is also nowhere upstairs to store any of your clothes so I piled up each of our clothes on the spare bed at the back of the cabin. Not a big deal for us but for someone else this may be.

L'emplacement en face du lac c'était incroyable beau

Seul point un peu négatif c'est la literie le grand matelas et un peu raide
