Traditional Ski Cabin in lovely forest setting in Äkäslompolo, Ylläs

Log cabin 'Aurora' is set in the beautiful mountain area of Ylläs; Finland's number 1 ski resort. With a setting high above the Arctic Circle, the guaranteed snow throughout the skiing season makes for a perfect winter holiday. Ylläs has that special combination of peace and tranquility, yet all the winter activities you would expect from snow boarding to husky sledging and of course beginners and advanced skiing facilities. However, Aurora offers year round pleasures, as each new season arrives they each bring their own delights. In the long summer days warm temperatures mean walking, fishing, hiking, cycling and canoeing are a pleasure. As the seasons change the magnificent Northern Lights become visible and of course Santa Claus awaits children in his home just a short walk from the cabin. At the centre of this experience, Log cabin Aurora has been designed and finished to make your stay special. A home from home you will want to come back to whichever season you choose.

Perfect Lapland getaway
From start to finish Linda has been fantastic answering all questions we had even down to recommendations for trips and restaurants… cabin is amazing the pictures don’t do it justice.. couldn’t have asked for a better location 10 min walk one way to the shops and frozen lake 2 mins walk the other way to a fantastic woodland walk .. seen the lights 3 times in 7 days, temp was around -23 most days so lovely to come back to a warm cosy cabin and use the sauna. Will be booking again for this new years too !! Both my kids (13) and (15) have travelled the world with us and had many experiences but we have all agreed this has been the best holiday we’ve had …. Thank you

This was honestly one of our most magical holidays we have ever had. We wanted to take the children to Lapland but we didn't want to spend a fortune on an organised tour and I am so glad we did it on our own instead of paying a huge amount of money for a tour company to stick us on a bus with dozens of other people! The cabin was completely magic; cosy, warm, great sauna, kitchen had everything we needed, lovely log fire with unlimited wood etc. It is a few minutes walk to the supermarket and nice restaurants so if we didn't feel like cooking we could head out. There is a hotel one minute walk away which did a good buffet lunch and dinner as well. The children also loved pulling the food shopping back from the supermarket on the sledges! The cabin is in a really safe quiet spot so the children could play for hours in the snow with the hosts sledges on their own without us worrying. We booked everything with Snow Fun Safaris who picked us up from our cabin (though the office is one minute walk away) so we did Husky farm sledding, reindeer rides, Snowmobile, Father Christmas, Aurora. We also managed to do two days skiing which we organised when we were there. Everything is incredibly easy and accessible from the cabin and everyone is so helpful with fluent English. Linda was the most fantastic host; organising our airport transfers and replying within minutes to any questions we had. The children are already asking if we can go back next Winter! Truly wonderful stay.

The perfect cabin
We have just returned from a 5 night stay at Mark & Linda's cabin. We have loved every minute of our stay and didn't want to come home. Communication throughout has been excellent, Mark & Linda could not have been any more helpful when advising us on transport, excursions and the area. The cabin itself is lovely, really well equipped and in a brilliant location. It's just a short walk away form all the amenities but tucked away so you still feel like you have your privacy. Would highly recommend, we were a group of 3 adults and 2 children and there was plenty of space for us all. Thank you Mark & Linda, we will definitely be back! xx

Fabulous warm and cosy Cabin set in beautiful woodland
We have just returned from the most magical trip ever and loved our stay at the wonderful Aurora cabin. The Cabin is situated in a beautifully wooded area. The fully equipped Cabin was extremely warm and cosy. We just loved sitting in front of the roaring fire playing Monopoly, drinking wine and looking at the pics of our day. We used the sauna every evening. The clothes dryer airing cupboard was an absolute dream. Bedding is an additional cost over and above the rental cost so please factor this in during your stay and request. We were lucky enough to see the northern lights from the Cabin and then ran down to Akaslompolo Lake (behind supermarket) for a better vista – wow! The Cabin is about a 10 min walk from the village. It has a great supermarket (coffee shop within) and quite a few restaurants dotted around. Should you wish to eat out we dined at Evaskori (casual amazing pizza), Otso (delish pot pies), Rouhe (slightly more finer). Food in all restaurants was fabulously tasty and would recommend any of these restaurants. As recommended by Linda, with 10% discount, we booked our trips through Snow Fun Safaris for our snow mobile/reindeer, snow mobile/husky and magical Santa days out. Remember your driving licenses. The staff at Snow Fun were fabulous, they looked after us so well and we cannot recommend this company enough. The Yllas Ski Resort is a short 5-7 min local bus journey ride away. You can visit the other side of the mountain a further 15-20 mins and would recommend this for taking the gondolas up the Mountain. The bus stop is just at the Hotel Yllaskaltio, you’ll pass this on the road to the cabin. The airport bus also stops at this hotel which is only 18-euro adult/8 a child one way. Linda kindly booked us a local taxi for our arrival at 105-euro, but we did get the bus back to the airport which ran like clockwork. Snow Fun Safaris helped us out there with the timetable. Linda the owner is amazingly helpful – no question was too small for her and we cannot thank her enough for assisting with all my queries and bookings.

Love it
My second stay here with my children (this time aged 13 and 10), ever since our first trip they've begged to come back. Visited this time January 2019, and the trip was just as wonderful as the first. The cabin is clean, light and well equipped and very warm. The drying cupboard and sauna and excellent additions, as is the log fire in the lounge. The cabin is situated within easy walking distance of the village that hosts a supermarket, sports hire shops, a few restaurants and bars and activity trip centres. This time we did snow shoeing, a lot of cross country ski-ing, reindeer farm and on our final night the northern lights put in an appearance. My daughter loves this place so much she wants to move here and is begging for Finnish language lessons! Im pretty certain we will be back again!

Beautiful well equipped cabin in stunning location
I took my 3 children aged 19, 8 and 5 for a 3 night stay 20-23 December 2018. As soon as we arrived we were in love with the place! Fantastic quiet location in beautiful surroundings xx we were able to check in early too which meant we didnt have to hang around with our luggage! Cabin was well equipped with extras I hadn't even thought about and beds were comfy too....we all slept very well xx the littles ones loved the gallery landing and having their own little area to play. I thought this would be a once in a lifetime trip...but I already want to go back and stay in this cabin again!! Thankyou Linda, we had a fab stay xx

Absolutely incredible
We loved our stay in Mark and Linda’s cabin. It had everything we could have needed and the fireplace was a much appreciated luxury! The kids loved their loft room and the little toy area. The cabin was so warm and cosy when coming back from our activities and the heated cupboard was great for drying out our snow covered clothes. My husband used the sauna a few times and loved it! The DVD’s for the kids were a great touch too, our 4 year old now loves the Eddie The Eagle film! 😂 Our only wish is we had booked to stay a bit longer! Thank you so much for all of the help you gave us leading up to the holiday as well, all of the excursions that we booked through Snowfun Safaris (as recommended by Linda) were absolutely magical and once in a lifetime experiences. We had a day on the ski slopes and it was a very short walk from the cabin to catch the ski bus. The supermarket was a short walk away too and there were sleds scattered around the town that we could pull the kids along in. Although we were only here for 4 days, we managed to do so much in that time and it was quite possibly the best 4 days we’ve ever experienced. Thank you so much!

Lovely, traditional property, quiet and peaceful. Would recommend
We actually stayed here a couple of years ago but I realised I didn’t leave a review. Lovely property. We stayed here out of season in June, it was very quiet and peaceful but that’s what we like. Nice area, we found things to do, walking, hiring bikes. We saw lots of reindeer roaming around in the area. The owners have made it lovely for families with lots of nice little touches, games, dvd - my kids particularly loved the sit-on rocking reindeer. Great facilities in the house. Really friendly, helpful owner. The only thing I would suggest is maybe some blackout curtains for upstairs. We wanted to experience the midnight sun, which we did and it was unbelievable but so confusing when you wake up in the middle of the night not having a clue what time it is! (We also stayed at a property in Helsinki which didn’t have them either so maybe it is not a problem for locals!) All in all, a lovely place which I would recommend. Would be lovely to visit in the winter as well!
