Why book a letting in Finland?If you think of Finland, surely the first image that comes to mind is that of a cold, snowy country and the contrasts between the midnight sun and the polar night. A third of the country lies within the Arctic Circle. And it's precisely this that makes it one of the best places on the planet for winter sports fans. However, Finland is also famous for being the land of the "thousand lakes", for its spectacular northern lights, for being home to Father Christmas and, although it may seem surprising, for being the happiest country in the world to live in. A country that has more forests and water than anywhere else on the European continent in an area larger than Italy or the United Kingdom. With a higher water-to-land ratio than any other country in the world, it is also one of the cleanest waters. A country of tall Vikings with blue eyes and beautiful blonde women. And if that's not enough, it has more than 3 million saunas, the highest number per capita in the world. Need more reasons to rent a letting in Finland for your next holiday?

The area and how to find your way around
Finland, despite being the sixth largest country in the European Union, has a population of only 5.4 million people, most of whom are concentrated in Helsinki, its capital, and in the cities of the south and the Gulf of Finland. Specifically, it has borders to the north with Norway, to the east with Russia and to the west with Sweden. In fact, its relationship with the latter is so great that Swedish is the country's second official language. In any case, tourists from Moscow, Berlin or Paris, the main European cities that offer connections with this region of the world, often look for rentals in this part of the world bearing in mind enjoy its many natural sites of great beauty. And it is that, as it happens with the regions of its surroundings, these are its main tourist attractions.
The best areas to rent a letting in FinlandThe Republic of Finland, located in northeastern Europe and with part of its territory in the Scandinavian peninsula, is becoming by leaps and bounds a tourist reference. In this sense, due to its magnificent educational level and the prestige of its universities, many students decide to move there for a few months to complete their training. Both they and the visitors who come to the area to know the corners of interest of the country usually choose their capital, Helsinki, as a place to find holiday rentals. In general, the offer is quite complete and varied, abounding in warm and cosy rentals with several rooms as well as independent houses.
Types of travellers and activities
Lapland is an immense territory covering part of the territory of Sweden, Norway, Russia and Finland, in which case we are going to focus. It is undoubtedly the area with the highest number of natural parks and literally more reindeer than people live there. The entrance door is Rovaniemi, where the Father Christmas house is said to be located. Without a doubt, this is an ideal place to be visited by families with small children. Just telling them the legend is a guarantee that they will love the site.
Finland for lovers of cold and natureIt is difficult to summarize all the beautiful places that are part of Finland, such as Hossa National Park or Nuuksio National Park. However, if there are some that attract countless tourists every year, those are the lakes. In fact, between the centre and the west of the country is the Thousand Lakes Region. A name that is frankly short because there are approximately 200,000 in it. Many of them organise very interesting fishing excursions.
Did you know that in Finland, throughout the year, there are 60 days when the sun does not rise and another 60 when it does not set?
Top 5 Recommendations in Finland
Lake Saimaa is the largest and most spectacular lake in Finland. During the summer, it is possible to travel it in a boat and even enjoy a pleasant afternoon of fishing in its waters. However, when it becomes really spectacular it is in winter. The extreme cold causes almost all of its surface to freeze.
2. Immerse yourself in the Christmas atmosphere of RovaniemiLegend has it that in the city of Rovaniemi was where Santa lived. Therefore, absolutely everything in the city remembers this character. In this sense, if you visit in winter it is also possible to enjoy all kinds of snow activities such as skiing and sledding. In fact, it is possible to travel from one place to another mounted on one pulled by dogs. During the summer, ice and snow thaw and give way to a landscape in which you can go for a walk in a boat, go hiking, etc.
3. Tour the Aland archipelagoTo the southeast of Finland there is a tremendous accumulation of small islands and islets of great beauty. In addition, most of them are linked by bridges, which makes it easier to visit them. In this sense, the ideal is to start from the city of Turku to its archipelago and, later, to link connections to cross all the islands that you wish. In fact, a good tip is to look for houses in one of them and stay up all night, as it usually takes several days to get to know all the places of interest.
4. Behold an aurora borealisNo phenomenon we can see in Finland surpasses the northern lights in beauty. A phenomenon that makes the night sky tingle with impossible greenish colours, giving it a precious alien look. The best place to see them is the Lapland region, where you can enjoy them any night from May to September. In the southern part of Finland, on the other hand, only 10 to 20 nights a year are visible.
5. Visit the castle of San OlafLocated in Olavinlinna, this majestic castle is one of the most emblematic historical places in the whole country. Built in the fifteenth century to defend the Savo region from the Russians. You can still hear through its walls the clash of medieval weapons, the roar of cannons and choral songs.
