Finland Short Breaks

The peaceful, snowy fells of Finnish Lapland are a world away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and provide the setting for a perfect short winter break, whether it’s a romantic escape, adventure-packed break or aurora hunting holiday – northern lights sightings here can be spectacular.

Authentic log cabins and crackling fires are an integral part of many people’s idea of a perfect winter getaway. Our short breaks to Finnish Lapland offer exactly this, set in a number of beautiful areas and without forgetting the Finnish staple – private saunas. After a day out enjoying all kinds of snow-based activities, a sauna session is just the ticket. The cabins we feature are built to a high standard and come in a variety of designs; for anything up to 6 persons with kitchenette and dining facilities, a lounge area and, of course, a private sauna.

For short breaks to Finland during the summer months, our wildlife focused trips get you right into the thick of prime brown bear territory. The wild and wonderful ancient taiga forest stretches in a green swathe from western Russia to eastern Finland. Spend a night in a specially designed hide, set in habitats ranging from wetland to forest, for an excellent chance of photographing not only bears but other wildlife such as wolverine, lynx, capercaillie and goshawk.

During the day spend time exploring the beautiful Finnish countryside and enjoy the many outdoor activities available such as cycling, hiking, swimming, fishing and canoeing.
