Hotelli Korpikartano

I really enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The location on the shores of the lake is magical. My studio room, which had a kitchenette and bathroom, was spotless. The underfloor heating kept the temperature nice and cosy (and was wonderful for drying out damp clothes). The staff was helpful and knowledgeable. The food was delicious and made from local produce. The option to book a sauna for private hour-long sessions was a bonus. All the equipment we used for our activities - ice fishing, husky safari, snowshoeing etc. - was in tiptop condition, and the guides were great too. I would also highly recommend taking a trip out to visit the reindeer herders. Seeing so many of these animals up close in their natural environment and learning about Sami traditions was incredible. We went to see the northern lights, but they proved elusive! However, this is just another reason to go back.
