Company information

Tervetuloa kaikki uudet ja vanhat ystävät vieraanvaraiseen Guesthouse Pekkalaan. Meillä saat nauttia ympäröivän luonnon rauhasta ,koska kaupungin kiire ja vilinä jää 60kilometrin päähän. Täällä kaukana valojen välkkeestä voit saada ainutlaatuisen kokemuksen revontulien loimusta ihan omassa pihapiirissä ja jopa oman huoneen ikkunasta. Vanha kaksikerroksinen koulurakennus tarjoaa rauhallisen yösijan kuin isoäidin lämminhenkinen koti.

Property information

Tässä ainutlaatuisessa ja rauhallisessa lomakohteessa on helppo rentoutua. Lappilainen kylämiljöö kävelymatkan päässä Kaihuanvaaran upeista, merkityistä retkeilymaastoista. Majoitu upean luonnon ympäröimässsä Pekkalan 1952 rakennetussa kyläkoulussa, joka on remontoitu vastaamaan nykyajan tarpeita ja mukavuuksia. Huoneistossa oma wc ja keittiö, sauna- ja suihkutilat yhteiset. Kohde sopii erinomaisesti niin lapsiperheille kuin aikuisemmillekin matkaajille.

Neighbourhood information

Kohde sijaitsee luonnonkauniilla paikalla Kaihuanvaaran ja Kemijoen läheisyydessä. Ihan kävelymatkan päässä aukeaa metsäiset vaaramaisemat retkeily reitteineen. Because of restful countryside living, we really located 60km from Rovaniemi Airport and also 60km from the Rovaniemi city´s center. Bus ( public transportation ) comes nearby village Vanttauskoski ; 7,5km from our property to nearest foodstore K-Market Jokitori yard. Foodstore and cafeteria are open 8am-8pm.

If you come by bus, we can pic you up from Vanttauskoski for the price of 5 euros, Allso you can reach by taxi ( load on your phone taxi app for example Bolt, Taxi Rovaniemi or Meneva. Then you see from app the prices allso ) or rent a car.
