SAUNA

A GREAT WAY TO RELAX AND SPEND TIME IN GOOD COMPANY!

VIP-sauna is located on the lake.  You may relax outside the sauna on a terrace with garden furniture. The Sauna area is 54.8 square meters. Our electric sauna gives a nice, warm steam (löyly) and there is a wooden bathtub in the shower room. You may also relax in the living room with a huge stone fireplace, a dishwasher, a refrigerator, a cupboard, a dish washer, a toilet and two wardrobes in the dressing room. Fireplace is made as a design project; forging is made of metal by Finnish artist and furniture was designed by Finnish designer Antti Sakkari. The walls are decorated with tapestries in the style of “patchwork”.

You can book the sauna at the reception or sales@tahkotours.fi

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT FINNISH SAUNA

Finnish sauna has a long history. For the Finns sauna is not just a way to bathe and relax. This is a generally a ritual, an integral part of the Finnish lifestyle. The population of Finland is 5.1 million and number of saunas (in separate buildings) is 1.7 million, ie, one sauna for three people. So, there are more saunas than cars per population.

The first saunas were very primitive: ripped out small caves, where was built hearth (dug-saunas existed before the 20th century). In the 12th century people began to build separate sauna buildings, but without a chimney. Smoke went out of the open door or a hole in the ceiling. In the 20th century sauna began to take the form we all know now.
