Every cottage does have their own swimming beach, a separate sauna building and a rowing boat. Lake Kyyvesi is excellent for fishing; lots of pike and zanders live in there. There are also excellent possibilities to collect berries and mushrooms in the forests nearby. In the winter we operate a skiing track around the farm. A sledding hill near the barbeque hut is also open for use.



We farm Finncattle, the original cows of Finland. During summer they pasture in the forest and take care of the landscape. The cottages Koivu and Mänty are located next to the areas they pasture. Cottage Pihlaja is in the direct presence of the farm. If desired, you are shown how to shepherd the cattle. During summer, hens wander around the farm and our cats will be more than happy be taken with you to your cottages.

As the fields and the forest nearby cottages Koivu, Mänty and Pihlaja are grazed by cows and heifers during the summertime, there are fences around the cottages. Walking inside the corral and in the forests is allowed. The cows and heifers are not dangerous but curious by nature. Cows are friendly, but also big animals, so please do not leave kids alone with cows.

Our cows live in the same forest pastures by the lake as the our farm´s first cows "Viikuna and Ilona" in the 1930's. Today, milk from Finnish cattle combines with the berries from farm's own forests and nearby farms, to make delicious ice cream.

We produce ice cream by using fresh, local and natural ingredients. Finnish nature has inspired us to produce delicious ice cream flavours. Ask flavors, for example strawberry, blueberry, sea-buckthorn, cranberry and lingonberry.
