Holidays to Finland mean access to outdoor adventures, innovative cuisine, incredible natural beauty and a unique design culture. This enchanting country never fails to deliver unforgettable experiences, no matter the time of year.
Though it’s home to bustling, vibrant, fascinating cities, Finland is perhaps best known for its stunning natural landscape. Think impossibly blue lakes, forests that seem to be cut straight from a fairy tale, vast National Parks and wildlife including bears, wolves and even the world’s rarest seal.
Winter breaks to Finland are simply magical, as the country is blanketed in pristine snow and pine trees sparkle with ice. Getting out to enjoy the winter wonderland is easy, with excellent skiing, snowmobiling, husky (or reindeer!) sledding and ice fishing to be had. This is also a great place to go hunting for the iconic northern lights on a dark, clear night.
Finland is really a year-round destination, with summers offering plentiful arts festivals, picturesque countryside escapes, sun-kissed lake cruises and even sunshine at midnight!
Our collection of places to stay in Finland includes options for those off on a family adventure, those keen to experience the great outdoors, and couples in need of a romantic, intimate escape. From chic, sleek hotels and cosy spa breaks to expertly-outfitted cabins with roaring fires for welcoming you back from the snow, you’ll find the perfect choice for your Finland holiday in our portfolio.
