fifth try Last December my girlfriend and me decided to spend our winter holidays in Lapland. After Reading some reviews on the internet we booked a cottage next to the line of the polar circle. The house was really beautiful and welcoming. It was completely made of wood and perfectly decorated with christmas ornaments. The furniture was also wooden and ceilings really high with beams. It had two bedrooms, one of them had an extremely comfortable double bed. There were two well equipped bathrooms an one huge living room with a fireplace. The house had also two barns outside, the biggest one was a wood store and was shared with two other cottages, the other one was a private smoke sauna. When we booked the cottage the recepcionist ask us if we preferred a house with traditional smoke sauna for and extra charge. We both love sauna so we decided to try the traditional kind. Although we found out this sort of sauna was harder to set off, it was definetly worth it. In spite of the house was advertised as being 10 minutes from the ski resort, we had to rent a snow-mobile to do it in such a short time. At first, we were dissapointed because the renting was quiet expensive, however after the first ride we found it really thrill. If you like snow and winter sports do not miss the opportunity to spend a holidays in a wooden cottage in Lapland. Despite fees are high, living in such welcoming house with a fireplace and private sauna is an amazing experience.
