Overview: chalet description: Santa's Christmas Cabins description

My cosy Lapland Christmas Cabins are full of charm with delicious family meals included! Imagine the pleasure of arriving at one of my cabins and being greeted by one of my festive helpers, with the kettle already on and a freshly baked cake waiting for you to help yourself. You can book the whole or part of the cabin, so whether you are an individual family or travelling with grandparents or friends, one of my Christmas Cabins is ideal!

My Cabins are very very popular and so tend to be booked up with families waiting to meet me much before December.

My Christmas Cabins include all the following:

In these cabins, you have the dedicated care and attention of one of my very dear helpers, who will look after you during your stay in my homeland. This is a way to experience Lapland in the most traditional way, whilst still enjoying all the comforts of a home from home!

  • Christmas tree in the lounge to set the festive mood
  • Open log fire to warm you after exciting outdoor activities
  • Sauna – the favourite Finnish way to relax
  • Substantial daily breakfast including cereals, porridge, boiled eggs, local bread with cold meats, cheeses & preserves, yoghurt, fresh fruit, tea, coffee and fruit juice
  • Lunch included on ‘Search for Santa’ Day
  • 3-course evening meals for all the family to share plus after-dinner coffee and Elizabeth Shaw chocolates
  • Complimentary wine with evening meals (1 bottle per couple each evening), and soft drinks for children
  • A Festive Dinner on your last evening with traditional crackers and a delicious special meal to celebrate your stay in style
  • Cosy lounge with TV and stereo
  • Free use of toboggans

I have personally selected from my special helpers a dedicated host for each cabin, who will cook and clean for you every day, lay the log fire, and help create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The living-rooms all have Christmas decorations in place, and each has its own Christmas tree too. The informality and friendly camaraderie of a cabin makes a holiday with children relaxed and stress-free. You can unwind in front of the log fire, enjoy a fragrant Finnish sauna, let the children pad about in their PJ’s and soak up the atmosphere of a traditional Lapland experience. My cabins are all run on a family-friendly basis, so naturally, they are all non-smoking. Santa’s Christmas Cabins are located in a secluded residential area of Saariselkä, offering a warm and cosy home in the landscape of glistening white, snow-clad fir trees.

Europe’s northernmost ski resort, Saariselkä is 250km up from the Arctic Circle, not far from the Russian border. One of the main resorts in Lapland – the legendary home of Father Christmas – it has snow-sure skiing, a Christmas-card-esque village and heaps of festive activities all in one place. The village itself is surrounded by forest and full of winter wonderland charm, with its own little chapel, some shops and restaurants and accommodation ranging from spa hotels to traditional log cabins. Everythin...
Spread across the Iisakkipää and Kaunispää fells, the ski area is modestly-sized, with 6 ski lifts taking you up to 15 slopes. The bus is quite regular and does drop-offs at the top of the slopes and the base. From the base, one chairlift takes you to the top of Kaunispää (the rest of the lifts are T bars). All pistes take you back to the same part of the valley, where you’ll find campfires and cafés to warm up and rebuild your energy stores. This isn’t a challenging ski area and the slopes would best...
With only 15 slopes, this isn’t meant to be a resort where the sole focus is skiing and there are tonnes of other activities to fill up the week. Snowmobiling, reindeer and husky safaris really are as fun as they look and all are a great way to enjoy the surroundings. For something a bit different, try your hand at ice fishing or follow one of the more well-trodden snowshoe route. Even better, 15 minutes away by road is Santa’s resort, Kakslauttanen for a once in a lifetime meeting with the man himself. Fro...
