We loved the house itself. It was spacious, clean, cosy and very well equipped, with three full bedrooms, a fireplace, a private sauna, a washing machine and a dryer. The peaceful setting in nature was wonderful, and it was a convenient base for exploring the Pyhä area by car. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Check-in is from 18:00. The host kindly said he would let us know if the house was ready earlier, but we never received an update. The internet was not working on arrival, and the response to our message came much later; I eventually restored the connection myself. Guests should also be aware that final cleaning costs €100 unless they follow a fairly extensive cleaning checklist themselves. The sauna is compact for two, although we still enjoyed it. The lake is nearby, but the shore closest to the house was shallow and reedy rather than suitable for a quick swim.
