KUHMO IN FINLAND'S THOUSAND LAKES
Enjoy Christmas and New Year in typically Finnish fashion. Our holidays here in "The Thousand Lakes" are designed to rekindle all those childhood memories of playing in deep snow, Christmas concerts, baking pastries with elves and, of course, visiting Santa himself. For a personalised, intimate and uncommercial winter holiday you really need look no further. Forget the stress of a one-day flying visit and rediscover the genuine magic of Christmas and New Year. HOLIDAY CHOICES
The great beauty of Finnish Lakeland is that it remains well and truly off the beaten tourist track. This is the place to visit if you want a genuine, uncommercialised Christmas or New Year holiday. We offer two programmes here in The Thousand Lakes.

ACCOMMODATION - OUR OPINION
THE HOTEL The hotel enjoys an enviable location on the shores of frozen Lake Lammasjarvi and with just 41 en-suite bedrooms, overcrowding is never a problem. With a cosy and convivial atmosphere, friendly staff and an excellent restaurant serving both traditional and international cuisine, we are sure you will be more than comfortable during your stay. While the adults relax in one of the three saunas or the new Wellness Centre, the younger ones can occupy themselves with the Playstation games in the children's room. Your stay includes free use of the hotel's kick sleds and toboggans. The Kalevala Cross-Country Skiing Centre is next door to the hotel and has several floodlit trails. In total there are approximately 100km of cross-country skiing trails and 440km of snowmobile tracks locally so variety is not a problem. You can rent skis as well as ice skates, snowshoes and winter fishing equipment. Most exciting of all for families with young children is the Kalevala Christmas Village. In winter, we walk through the forest to the village where a truly magical Christmas experience awaits including the elves' workshop, gifts, gingerbread, decorations and best of all, an audience with Father Christmas in his office. Just watch the sparkle in your child's eyes as they enter the office and see the great man waiting to greet them!
