3* Log Cabins

3 stars

The Ruka Log Cabins are the accommodation of choice for anyone looking for the ultimate Finnish experience. Traditionally built and furnished, the cabins are nestled in an idyllic woodland setting - ideal for those who like peace and privacy but don’t want to be too far from the centre.It’s a 5-minute walk to the ski bus stop and a 25-minute uphill walk to the resort centre – good for warming up in the morning but it might be a challenge if you’re travelling with small children. On the other hand, you can take advantage of the hill and sledge back down to your cabin at the end of the day.The open log fire and drying cabinet means that both you and your clothes will always be warm and cosy, even in the freezing temperatures that Finland is famous for. And you can always visit the private sauna for an extra burst of heat.Spacious living areas and full kitchens mean these cabins are perfect for families and groups of friends. The supermarket is a 25-minutes walk (or short bus ride) away and it's reasonably priced, so you can avoid the high restaurant prices in Ruka by cooking at home. Evenings can be spent relaxing in front of the fire, or maybe trying to spy the Northern Lights out of the window – but you can still head into town if you fancy a night out.

All cabins have a combined living and dining area with a TV, wood burning fire with unlimited firewood, drying cabinet for clothes, washing machine, iron and private sauna. The kitchen is fully equipped with an electric oven and hot plates, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, fridge and dishwasher. Bed linen, towels and end-of-stay cleaning (except kitchen area) are included.
