HAWKHILL
Hawkhill offers its guests a complete experience - not just accommodation. All guests are personally welcomed and introduced to the cottages and local nature. Hawkhill's ancillary services, forest meals, hikes and yoga sessions on the dock make the experience unforgettable. This is a cabin paradise and the perfect place to enjoy nature with all your senses.
"Our guests often ask us how the cottages got their names. They all come from our family. Eino was our grandfather, Armas his brother and Anna their sister. It's our way of keeping them in mind and reminding us every day of where our business started."
8 cottages of different sizes, each with its own pier, boat and campfire site.
Catering services, a lobby for parties and meetings and the services of a batch chef.
Hikes in the local nature, wilderness experiences, wild herb courses and yoga
Each cottage has its own sauna, swimming facilities and an open-air swimming pool in winter.
50 minutes from Helsinki and the airport
"The land of communes and valleys,
what is that beautiful?
That hohtees of summer days,
That shines the fires of the ground,
That winter, summer lovely,
What is that sweet land?
In the thousands of lakes
the stars of the night shimmer
and the sound of the kantele
echoes around the rocks
and the golden mummi hongas ring:
it is the land of Finland."
Excerpt from the poem 'Suomenmaa'
Selected Works II (1878), Aleksis Kivi

THE HEALING POWER OF THE FOREST
"The health benefits of forests have long been studied. Just 30 minutes in nature calms the mind, lowers the heart rate and improves mood. For these reasons, a relaxing day of recreation or a day of rest in the woods is a good idea!"
Annu, owner, Hawkhill
