Glass Igloo and Kammi

We operate our programmes to Yllas, a small region in Finnish Lapland approximately 150km north of the Arctic Circle. Within this region the cabins and hotels that we use are situated in and around the villages of Akaslompolo, Lapland (approximate population of 400 people), Yllasjarvi, Lapland (approximate population of 200 people) and on the outskirts of the ski town of Levi, Lapland.

Overview

Hotel Image

Located on the Levi fell in Utsuvaara region in Finnish Lapland, 350m above sea level the kammi and glass igloos are surrounded by forest and offer magnificent views that stretch to neighbouring Norwegian Lapland. Perfect for couples and quiet family retreats, but still with easy access to ski slopes, restaurants, golf course and snowmobile routes.

Equipped to a high standard with a state of the art bathroom and kitchenette, the glass igloo offers the unique experience of sleeping under the stars and Northern Lights whilst staying warm as outside temperatures can plummet to below -35C. The heated glass roof and adjustable bed in the igloo give you a comfortable position from which to see the Northern Lights unspoilt views reaching as far as Norweigan Lapland.

The kammi is built into the side of the fell so it become virtually indistinguishable from the hill itself once the snow has fallen. Combining modern luxury, traditional Finnish design and seventeenth-century French decor, this eccentric building is full of quirks including illuminated toilet paper holders, gold plated shower heads by Rolex and the the crest of Finland's largest chicken breeding family in some mirrors. With the jacuzzi outside overlooking the fell it is the perfect spot the sit and wait for the northern lights and enjoy the breathtaking views of the surrounding scenery. This eclectically designed kammi is perfect for two couples or smaller families and is as enjoyable as the Arctic activities themselves.

• Glass Igloo Facilities: kitchenette, double bed, shower, WC, hair dryer, CD player. Accommodate up to 2 people. Floor area: 23 square metres. 4 igloos in total.

• Kammi Facilities: 2 bedrooms, Golden Suite with double bed and en-suite bathroom with toilet and shower, Lumberjack Suite with double bed en-suite toilet, sauna area with sauna, two showers, fridge and fire place, toilet, living room with the sofa bed, fire place and large windows overlooking fell scenery and the views as far as the gold mine of Kittila, TV, radio-CD player, DVD Player, kitchen, jacuzzi on the outside terrace. 1 kammi in total.

This accommodation can also be booked January - April.
