Time together, unhurried moments and meaningful experiences in the middle of everyday life.
This weekend has been carefully designed for four women — to bring you joy, connection and moments you’ll remember for a long time. You’ll enjoy local flavors, explore small boutiques and hear the story of this historic merchant house and the women who have lived here. A weekend for friendship and togetherness. – Piia

A small surprise for each guest
I will welcome you personally and guide you into the weekend.
On Friday evening, you will have the opportunity to explore the history of this merchant house on a guided house tour, including access to the private living spaces of the women who live here.
If you visit during the snow-free season, you can also explore Grandma’s kitchen garden, which is full of berry bushes, fruit trees and herbs.
We will finish the house tour with a “Women’s Power Tea” herbal moment in my own kitchen.
After that, you’ll enjoy a generous snack dinner and spend a relaxed private evening together.
There will be a touch of surprise as well, as I have prepared something that will surely lead you into interesting conversations during the evening.
A slow and relaxed morning with breakfast ready in the apartment.
During the day, you can either explore charming local boutiques, cafés and restaurants, or choose a nature or activity-based experience. I will tell you all possible options when you arrive on Friday evening.
At the end of Saturday evening, each of you will enjoy a 45-minute massage. When you arrive for your treatment, simply let us know whether you would prefer a gentle relaxing treatment or a deeper massage.
As there are four of you, while waiting for your massage it’s lovely to enjoy a gentle and refreshing wild herb foot bath, create an inspiring vision board, or paint something uniquely your own with oil paints as a keepsake.
The evening is completed by a cozy wood-heated sauna with wonderfully soft steam, which I will prepare and heat for you in advance. The sauna time can be arranged flexibly to suit your schedule.
A relaxed departure day...
Take a walk in the nearby area or enjoy self-guided experiences in the apartment.
You can truly enjoy the whole Sunday, as you are entitled to use our late checkout which is until 6 pm.
If travelling south, you can visit Repovesi National Park. To the north, the scenic Neitvuori area is worth exploring. Pohjoisen suunnassa on kaunis Neitvuoren alue.
In summer, Sunday is also a great day to visit Art Centre Salmela, one of our local museums, or the Ryönänhovi Garden, which has an interesting history.
You can also book a private guided forest experience with lakeside views, or other guided experiences.
I will tell you all possible options when you arrive on Friday evening.

This weekend is yours—for laughter, conversations and shared moments.
Time to slow down... without rush or everyday responsibilities, you can truly relax and enjoy being together. Treatments, herbal tea and nature-based elements help you unwind and reconnect.
Enjoy the moment... start your weekend with a delicious snack platter and relaxed conversation. Everything is prepared in advance, so you can enjoy it whenever it suits you.
With the help of a vision board, you tune into your intuition and visualize your goals, dreams and desires. For those used to constant doing, it may require a bit of letting go, but by trusting your intuition, the result can surprise even the most skeptical high achiever.
You can extend your stay or replace activities (for example with a guided nature trip).
An official local guide can take you to hidden places not easily found by others—on a ready-made excursion or a customised nature adventure just for you.
Through us you can rent a variety of outdoor equipment, including electric mountain bikes, kayaks and snowshoes with poles. In the house we have normal bicycles for you.
You will also receive hiking tips from your host Piia, an official local guide of Mäntyharju, to help you enjoy successful trips.
Mäntyharju is a unique destination with interesting places to visit all year round. As a local guide, I can help you find the very best spots.
