    Really nice place. The vibes of the old school are still there which looke really cool. We accidentally booked a wrong date, but the host prepared a room either way. Everything was clean, including the kitchen, showers and sauna.

    Friendly staff, fabulous breakfast. Young couple running the place has created a wonderful place to stay, inspired by their own experiences as travelers.

    Owners have a great vision for old school and they have done a great job making it a guest house. We slept in the barn room and were a bit afraid if there would be a lot of mosquitoes. We slept like babyes, no mosquitoes bothered us.

    That was one of the most amazing places I have ever stayed at! The hosts are very welcoming and approachable! The place itself is stunning. Renovated carefully, with full attention to details, it's like moving back in time. A super nice surprise...

    Only recommendations!! The owners were incredibly kind and friendly. The breakfast was healthy yet very tasty. We could use snowshoes and a 100-year-old sauna for free. For our last night, they even made pancakes as a dessert, which was a lovely...

Hei and welcome to our partly renovated Old School above the Arctic Circle! What's great about our place? If you love wilderness, outdoor activities, and meeting new people from different cultures, then this is the right place for you! Although if you just want to enjoy the nature around you in a calm and quiet environment, this is also the right place for you! Here you will find consumable farm products such as milk, cheese, bread etc and have access to all our land and lake. The dorm room consists of 4 single person beds along with space for clothing and view on the lake. The library-corridor and cozy room are at your disposal. The latter includes a full kitchen, a piano, a fireplace, boardgames and more books. About twice per week we turn the sauna on. Feel free to walk around all forest, lake and river nearby. Depending on the time of the year, you can be directed towards activities such as snowshoeing, fishing, ice fishing, skiing, snowmobiling, etc. See you soon!
Traveling around the world for a few years already, I used more hostels and guest houses than I can count. I've always loved the atmosphere of cultural exchange that can be found there, that's why I try to reproduce it in my own guest house from now on!
Neighbourhood? Trees everywhere! Welcome to Lapland (Although we do have a couple neighbours, and there is a small reindeer farm by the river on the other side of the road)
