5 Star Villa Holidays is proud to present Salla 1282. Salla 1282 is a modern log house, built in 2022, on the slopes of fell Sallatunturi and near the National park. It is a dream come true destination for a family of five: an escape from everyday life designed for active vacations and relaxation that stimulates all senses.
The cabin is located high on the slope of the fell, along the ending road, in own peace. Nice view towards the peak from the living room. Access to outdoor trails and ski trail directly from yard. 1.7 km distance to ski slopes along the road, less than kilometer along the outdoor trail.
The cabin has three bedrooms with beds for seven. Blackout curtains in the bedrooms. One bedroom has a double bed, the second bedroom has 2 separate beds, and the third bedroom has a bunk bed and 1 separate bed. Large living room/kitchen, two WCs, spacious hall, dressing and housekeeping room, shower and sauna.
The facilities are designed to enable active holidays as well as complete relaxation: the hall has enough space for ski shoes and outerwear, as well as a drying cabinet for wet hats and gloves; the living room has a large sofa for enjoying the view and the fireplace. Even large group can enjoy dinner at the dining table; the sauna warms up slowly and is wood-heated. From the sauna, there is direct access to the terrace. The bedrooms can be conveniently combined or separated from the common spaces by using sliding doors.
There is no TV in the cabin. However, remote work is easily possible thanks to fast Internet connection and small work desk.
The cabin is furnished thoughtfully and detailed, favoring timeless Nordic design and second-hand items. It is important for the owner that the holiday home is not only practical, but also beautiful.
Note! Landscaping of the yard will be done in the summer of 2024.
Sallatunturi is a peaceful, outdoor-loving tourist's dream destination just 45 minutes from Ruka. The network of outdoor trails is wide all year round, the rest areas are well maintained, the ski slopes have varying profiles and, best of all, you don't have to queue for the ski lift and the slopes are not full of people either. Restaurants Kiela and Keloravintola serve local delicacies by easy way. Interesting places to visit are e.g. Salla reindeer park (3.5 km) and the Museum of the War and Reconstruction Era in the center of Salla municipality (11 km). Shops can also be found in the Salla municipality center.
Salla is easily reachable either by car, by train to Kemijärvi or Rovaniemi, or by flying to Kuusamo. There is bus connection to Sallatunturi from most trains arriving in Kemijärvi and from most flights arriving in Kuusamo (bus stop is approx. 800 m away). Check schedules in advance.
Reservations start at 17.00 and end at 11.00.
