Kalliola

High up on a cliff – this will be my castle.

If you are looking for genuinely unique villa accommodation, Kalliola is the ideal choice for you. Kalliola’s name refers to a rock, and the villa is located on a high rock. The villa includes all basic conveniences but also two saunas, a dishwasher, and a washing machine. In the downstairs area of this two-storey villa, the kitchen and dining area are located a couple of steps lower than the rest of the floor. There is also one bedroom downstairs, and the other two bedrooms are located upstairs. There are a lot of elevation differences in the terrain surrounding the villa.

As all of our villas, Kalliola is in a private location on the shore of Lake Saimaa. The private beach, wood-heated sauna, and rowing boat are at your disposal without any extra fees during your holiday. Note that the outdoor sauna is not available in the winter due to the freezing of the floor tiles.

Additional information:
Maximum number of people: 6
The cottage is available from your arrival day at 3 pm to midday on your departure day.
You can bring your own bed linen and towels or rent them from us for €13 per person. You can perform the departure cleaning by yourself (vacuum cleaning, surface wiping, taking out the trash) or order the cleaning from us for €120.
