Home visits & Arctic cabin accommodation

 

Hello my friends! My name is Minna-Carita and I am a Finn (kven) from the North, born and raised in Ivalo. We live our life with our family nearby Ivalo village very close to the nature.

In our life we have the luxury to enjoy the northern nature and its great things, pure clean air, fresh and healthy food directly from the forest (berries, mushrooms, wild herbs, fish and game). We love our life here in the north and want to share it with you.

Arctic cabin accommodation – open now

We offer accommodation in the wooden arctic cabin just next to our house. The house is provided with stove so you can enjoy real Finnish experience in the cosy cabin heated mainly by wood.

Accommodation also includes a nice local breakfast basket delivered to your cabin in the morning.

When having accommodation with us in the winter time between 15.11.-15.4, we will provide you not only home made breakfast but also dinner made of local delicacies delivered to you in to the cabin.

You can find the cabin easily bookable now in Booking.com.

Kitchen ware (trays, chopping boards)

My passion are the lights and colours of the northern skies and I like to paint these landscapes and colours here from the north. I find our nature very inspiring. I offer my paintings printed on wooden trays and chopping boards. I also have done some colourful Art post cards as well. All kitchen ware is printed on the Finnish birch tree in Finland and can be bought from my webshop or directly from me (you can contact me via e-mail, phone or in social media account @minnacaritas)

You can order kitchen ware online or buy on spot

You can order kitchen ware, trays and chopping boards directly from my Finnish speaking webshop or from me by messaging me in social media @minnacaritas, e-mail or by phone. If you are having accommodation with us, you can have a taste of different products here on spot. Some of my kitchen ware is also available in Sami museum Siida, in Inari. It is a nice local souvenir and a gift to someone special.
