Lovely time on the Finnish coast
We had a lovely time on the Finnish coast, enjoying the baltic sea, sauna and glorious nature.
Liz and Tom were wonderful hosts. Their beautiful cottage was charming, had character and a spacious terrace. The cottage is fully equipped and you can lounge on the terrace or at the deck on the seaside.

Eine wunderbare Wellness-Woche
Wir hatten eine wunderbare Woche auf dem herrlichen Grundstück von Liz und Tom. Es liegt direkt am Wasser und mitten im Wald. Wir hatten ein gemütliches kleines Häuschen, die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich und auf das Wohl ihrer Gäste bedacht. Im umliegenden finnischen Wald kann man spazieren gehen und Pilze und Beeren finden. Sogar eine Elchkuh haben wir gesehen. Wir kommen sicherlich wieder.

Toller Platz mitten in den finnischen Schären
Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt im gemütlichen und liebevoll renovierten Ferienhäuschen "Sailhouse". Die Ruhe und Beschaulichkeit im wunderschönen Garten mit Blick zur Ostsee haben wir sehr genossen. Liz und Tom waren stets offen für unsere Fragen und Wünsche und Eddie der junge, verspielte Rauhaardackel bereitete uns immer ein Lächeln auf den Lippen. Wir kommen auf unserer nächsten Finnland-Reise auf jeden Fall wieder!
