Double bed in the master bedroom and one single bed in the other bedroom and one extra bed if its needed. The house has a Sauna, which can be booked. Our home is located in the small historical and charming village named Littoinen. It has peaceful neighborhood near forest and nature trail and the lake. The lake and the nearest beach is 300 meters away. In the wintertime if there is enough frost and snow is possible to skate and ski on the lake.
