Helsinki
Come to Finland, the happiest country in the world! Enjoy cool summer and the midnight sun or snow and the northern lights in winter!
Our home is a terraced house on two floors. On the upper lever we have a kitchen, living room and an office. Downstairs there are three bedrooms and a bathroom with an electric sauna. We have a small backyard. Our bedrooms can accommodate four adults.
Our neighborhood Pakila is a green and active neighbourhood in northern Helsinki. Pakila is a heaven for outdoor people, who love to spend time in Finnish nature. Within a few kilometres we have golf and frisbee golf courses, climbing park, free outdoor gym, indoor swimming hall and nature pond and Central Park for hiking and biking.
Everything you need for a good holiday is near. We have cafeterias, restaurants (sushi and italian), supermarkets (S-Market and Lidl), kiosk, hair dresser, pharmacy, children's playground, gas station and a public library.
While you are here in Helsinki and Finland, you can also make a short day visits to Estonia and Sweden. Ferries to Tallinn and Stockholm leave at Helsinki harbour.
Unfortunately we do not have the opportunity to offer you a car. Getting around in Helsinki is easy with public transport. Public transportation HSL (https://www.hsl.fi/en/travelling/visitors) is very efficient and takes you wherever you want to go. Tourists can buy single tickets and also day tickets (1-13 days) that gives you possibility for unlimited use in buses, trams, trains, metros and Suomenlinna-ferries in Helsinki. You can also rent a car from Helsinki-Vantaa airport or from the Central Railway Station in Helsinki.
You are warmly welcome!
