Holiday rentals in Kotalahti

Comfortably decorated spacious cottage. Beautiful place by the lake.

Lea is a lovely host - very welcoming, warm, friendly, accomodating, easygoing and flexible. I had no issues whatsoever with her or my stay in her house. The house and her property by the lake is just gorgeus, the view is so calming and beautiful to look at. She takes great care of her garden too. I found the house having a very peaceful energy to it, I felt very relaxed there. The only slight downside for me personally was the double bed itself in the bedroom I stayed in. The mattress felt as it had seen it's better days, didn't feel quite firm enough for me, but then again this might not be an issue to other guests at all. I personally happen to have certain back issues and a good bed is something that's very important to me (I had forgotten to ask about the bed prior to my trip). I spoke to Lea about it after my first night and she was just wonderful with the whole thing as with everything else - didn't get triggered or provoked at all. She offered one of the other rooms to me as the single beds are firmer and that I could pretty much choose freely what ever works for me best as I was the only guest in the house during my stay. I found her to be very easygoing and just lovely in every way. I had some very nice conversations with Lea as well and we shared some great laughs too. She was also very kind to me, for example when it rained hard upon my arrival and my only shoes had gone soaking wet, she offered to dry them in the sauna for the next day. Also on another day when it kept raining, she offered me her own rain coat and rain boots so that I wouldn't get wet as I was taking part in the music festival as a singer and getting sick would have been very unfortunate. She also allowed me to practise freely in the house. Brewing a cup of coffee in the morning and the use of basic condiments such as salt and pepper while cooking in the kitchen was also included in the price. I am very pleased with my stay at Lea's beautiful home. She was a superb, fun host and seemed like a wonderful humanbeing overall. I felt great in her house and have no complaints about her whatsoever.

Our group of seven spent four nights at Miia's cottage on the shores of Linnansaari National Park. We had an excellent time! The main cottage is on the small side for seven, the three kids were going to sleep in a loft space but with the noise challenges of lofts we elected to have them sleep in the sauna cottage, which has a beautiful sleeping space. We took full advantage of the ping pong table, darts, hot tub and sauna(s). We also rowed over to nearby islands several times (tons of mushrooms growing over there!). There were no other people nearby, really, so it felt very private. The back deck is perfect for lounging and eating meals when the weather is good. Miia helped us find a local fishing guide and gave us other helpful recommendations. We popped south to Savonlinna one day to walk the town and have a meal. All in all, we highly recommend a stay at Miia's!

Beautiful and bright cottage with spacious sauna, soft beds and wonderfully fresh room air. Even though the cottage is in the host's yard, the location was peaceful and private.

A personal and fun house to stay. The best part was to stay with a group of people with ❤️🙏 everything you need. Flexible host!

Absolutely amazing place to stay. Very relaxing. Jaana was a very good host and communicated very quickly and was friendly and helpful. The place is beautiful and the lake is very calming. We used the fishing rods and fished from the boat which was also fun - thanks Jaana!

Great place in a great location!

Location location location! Beautiful remote home, surrounded by trees and a huge lake! We came in Feb when it was covered in snow made the scenery even more beautiful! Vey picturesque! There are two local ( 16 km away ) restaurants/take aways and a supermarket for essentials. The house itself is very warm with heated flooring. The hot tub costs extra £150 and it doesn’t have bubbles. It’s just warm water that you need to burn wood with, to warm it up. Is costs extra £15 per person in cash to have Bed linen Had a great time!

We had a great stay in a spacious and clean apartment with great views. The location is perfect. Thanks, Kristiina!
