Accommodation in an atmospheric old post office

Stay in Lokka, Sodankylä, near the reservoir, in a homely and comfortable four-bedroom traditional Finnish house. This historic building is the former Lokka post office and post bank. Here, time stands still, and you can enjoy the atmosphere of the 1960s with modern comforts.


Two rooms are currently available for accommodation. The house has all the necessary comforts, and from the yard you can step straight into nature—to pick berries, hike, hunt, fish or even ski. Fibre-optic internet ensures smooth remote working.


If you wish, you can book the entire house for accommodation. Full board with meals and heated saunas can also be arranged if needed. Get in touch to find out more!
