Experience unforgettable moments at our brand-new villa, completed in autumn 2025, in a peaceful spot on the edge of the national park in the heart of the Seven Fells. Ski, bike, or hike directly from the villa onto scenic trails through breathtaking nature. Breathe the world’s purest air from two terraces. Enjoy the unique log sauna, relax by the indoor fireplace, and take advantage of the excellent amenities. A cozy café is also nearby! Shops are about 3 km away, and the Ylläs ski slopes around 7 km – with a ski bus stop just 1 km from the villa.
In the living room, you’ll find a comfortable sofa and armchair, and you can enjoy the warmth of a roaring fire in the impressive stone fireplace. The large TV and quality sound system provide evening entertainment. From the windows, you can admire peaceful forest views, where reindeer and other Lapland wildlife are often spotted. Ylläs Fell can also be seen on the horizon through the trees.
The spacious, well-equipped kitchen invites you to cook, and the oak dining table offers plenty of room for your group. You can also pick up delicious ready-made meals from the store.
There are three bedrooms: one single room with a workspace downstairs, another downstairs room with a comfortable double bed, and a third bedroom on the loft – a favorite hideaway for children, but equally suitable for adults.
Two showers and toilets ensure convenience. One shower and toilet are located in the handcrafted log sauna building, just a meter from the villa’s front door. The sauna is wood-heated, and firewood for both the sauna and fireplace is included in the price.
An electric car charging point is available in the yard upon request and included in the price. Bed linen and towels are also provided at no extra cost.
The villa features efficient underfloor heating and ventilation – all surrounded by the magical atmosphere of Lapland.
The owner’s dog visits the property occasionally, so it is not completely allergy-friendly.
Welcome to Villa Martta! We’re thrilled to share our peaceful Lapland retreat with you. Hosting is our way of letting others experience the magic of Ylläs – the fresh air, the quiet forests, and the cozy warmth of a log sauna after a day outdoors. We love skiing, hiking, mountain biking, and spotting reindeer, and we’re always happy to share our favorite local tips to make your stay unforgettable.
The cabin is set in a peaceful location near the legendary Stena Cabins, where tourism in Ylläs first began. Only occasional traffic passes by, and there are neighbors on just one side. At the edge of the property, a small slope is perfect for children’s sledding – sleds are provided at the cabin. The sound of the Äkäsjoki rapids can be heard from the terraces, as the river flows just 200 meters away.
Ylläs offers year-round activities for all ages. In winter, enjoy over 300 km of groomed cross-country ski trails, excellent downhill skiing, snowshoeing, and even winter cycling with e-fatbikes through snowy landscapes. The summer and autumn seasons bring endless hiking and mountain biking routes across the stunning fells, fishing in clear rivers and lakes, and berry picking in the surrounding forests. For a unique experience, try a husky safari, reindeer farm visit, or chase the magical Northern Lights!
