Paishill Private Lodge
Finland / Utsjoki, Lapland
Full description
A unique, luxurious and all-inclusive Lapland experience that's custom-built around the spectacular beauty of nature.
If you're looking for an unsurpassed Arctic escape in breathtakingly unspoilt Finnish Lapland, one in which your every need is catered for, then Paishill Private Lodge is the destination of your dreams.
Simply spirit yourselves away to the fairy-tale Paishill wilderness, where you'll discover the typically Scandinavian lodge on the bank of the sparkling River Teno (a wondrous base for viewing both the local wildlife and the Northern Lights). Sleeping up to six people, this is a naturally relaxing and energising break that's perfect for the whole family.
As you settle in, you'll find the cosy lodge equipped with everything you might expect from a five-star hotel. A wood-fired sauna and an invigorating outdoor hot tub will help shake off those everyday cares, while the yoga mats provided allow you to greet that sunrise in style.
Meanwhile, high-end accessories including Bang&Olufsen speakers, a gleaming La Pavoni coffee machine, and a sumptuous Finnish-designed Siesta lounge chair all speak the language of luxury.
As if that wasn't quite enough, you'll be taken exceptional care of throughout your stay by Mrs. Henriksson, the friendly housekeeper and chef. Every day, she will bring mouth-watering meals directly to you - from breakfast spreads of homemade bread, granola, and Nordic berry smoothies, to delicious dinners of Arctic salmon, reindeer, and organic vegetables.
The beauty of the ever-changing seasons make this a perfect year-round escape...trust us, as soon as you've visited in the midst of winter's fascinating polar nights (ideal for Northern Lights-spotting), you'll want to return for summer's midnight sun (the perfect season for taking an evening dip in the hot tub). Spring provides a clear, bright backdrop for snowshoeing or skiing, while autumn is an energising riot of colour.
With an impressive list of local activity providers on hand, guided activities are always available, from snowmobile tours to husky and reindeer safaris. You could also opt to do your own thing, heading out for a soul-awakening spot of wild swimming before unwinding in the sauna (or simply curling up with a good book).
Kevo Nature Reserve and the Arctic Sea are both in easy reach too, meaning absorbing day trips can be effortlessly arranged.
However you decide to spend your days, you'll be irresistibly drawn to the luxurious comfort of your Lodge by evening, where you'll find flavoursome food and an unsurpassed setting for relaxation...all ready and waiting for your return.
