Lapland Guesthouse

Just returned from an amazing 5 nights at this wonderful place. From the second you get there nothing is too much trouble. The relaxed feel to the place was much needed and we instantly felt at ease as soon as we arrived. Its hard to put just how good everything is in writing. I booked this trip for my wife's 40th Birthday and the memories we made will last us forever. Every organised trip and meal in the guesthouse had a really personal touch. We were lucky to see the northern lights on 3 of the 5 nights we stayed. We will especially miss the nights sat in the lounge drinking and talking to Johan who is the perfect host. I could not recommend this place highly enough.

Wow! This place is magical. If you can believe it, it's better in real life. The guesthouse is in a remote area and they provide everything you need to rest, relax, enjoy nature, have fun and see the land. Rooms were perfect. We were a group of 5 and had 3 rooms. Each were different and lovely. Comfortable beds, sitting area and small coffee station in larger room. Everything feels very private. Views to (almost) die for. Nice bathrooms. No TVs (yay!). All guests enjoy buffet breakfast and dinner in the main eating area (not included in the room rate but worth it) which is nicely appointed, casual and great for having family time or to meet other guests. We sat with another group one night and it was very fun. Food is delicious. All locally sourced and well made - great taste. There is a wonderful bar area perfect for drinking, card playing, talking, singing, playing twister, whatever. The owner, Johan, is a very special and welcoming person. Very involved in the community, informative of the area including all things nature, wildlife, country. I can honestly say that he made our trip. He guided us on our snowmobiling excursion and made us lunch over an open fire in the snow and it was truly magical. Please note that it is possible (and I recommend it) to rent proper clothing for winter excursions Johan has everything (and I mean everything) you need - boots, jackets, pants, hats, gloves and more. His equipment seems to be top notch and worth the extra spend to have a truly enjoyable time. Highly recommend this wonderful place. You won't be disappointed.

My husband and I stayed at Lapland Guesthouse for 4 nights with our 2 children aged 8 and 5 and we wish we could have stayed longer. The landscapes are stunning, the food delicious, the Viking Cabin where we slept is a masterpiece all to itself and above all Johan and his staff treat everybody like their own family. Though the weather was not always the best, Johan always made sure everyone had the best experience including our 5 year old daughter whom he brought back twice as she was too cold after a while. I would strongly recommend Lapland Guesthouse to anyone seeking an authentic experience in Lapland, away from the crowds. We will return for sure for Johan but also to see the Northern Lights!
