Villa Joutsenrinne
– Your perfect vacation retreat in Ruka, Finnish Lapland

The lover level (90 m2) features a large open solution kitchen-dining-living area – perfect for large numbers – two bedrooms and an atmospheric sauna department that includes double shower units and a separate toilet. The latest audio-visual equipment helps set the mood, but can equally be used to present budgets and corporate strategies.

Upstairs you will find amazingly spacious and practical sleeping quarters for all your family and guests. The photos tell the story.

Nor have the youngest visitors been neglected. The villa comes complete with baby cot, feeding chair and even a proper potty. Older children will enjoy the Wii game console.

For winter fun, the storeroom holds ice fishing equipment, pull sleds, and snow shoes. There is direct access to publicly maintained cross-country ski tracks from the lakeshore, and the downhill slopes are Ruka are nearby.
