Old Town Garden House & Sauna

Our unique Garden House & Sauna nestle in a secret flower garden along Ekenäs Old Town's most pittoresque little street by the sea. The peaceful house is tastefully decorated with Finnish design classics, antique furniture and art. Guests have their own secluded part of the garden. The space The Guest House has a hallway, a beautiful bedroom overlooking the garden onto two directions, a separate toilet and a modern, fully equipped kitchenette with a dining area (no oven or hob). The sauna space has a large shower room with two showers. And the wood-heated sauna gives the best "löyly"! When the sea is not frozen, you can go swimming from the pretty sandy beach around the corner. Towels, linens and basic bathroom + kitchen essentials are all provided. There are also many great books, comic books and board games to enjoy! The large garden is full of apple trees, berry bushes, lilacs...and dozens of different flowers that bloom throughout the spring, summer and autumn. The location is right by the sea, beaches and parks. It is also very near the Ramsholmen Nature Reserve. Lovely cafes, restaurants, small boutiques, the market square, museums and Finland's oldest cinema Bio Forum are all around the corner. N.B. The closest grocery store is around 15 minutes walk (1 km) away, right by Ekenäs Railway station. Guest access You have access to the whole space with your own entrance. In the garden, there are two guest corners. One with French cafe table + chairs under the bedroom window and the other one with a big wooden swing at the end of the Garden House. Cars are easy to park along the nearby streets or the seashore - free of charge! If you want to borrow a bike, just ask. We have two for guest use. Your own bike can be kept in the garden. Other things to note We welcome guests who come to Ekenäs Old Town to rest and enjoy the peaceful and beautiful historic surroundings and nature. The street gate is shared by our family, and so is some of the garden (on the other side). Rarely, we may quickly pick something up from the storage room by the white swing. We always make sure we don’t disturb our guests – and neither does Leimu, our very friendly dog, who hangs out in the garden with us sometimes. If you have a small(ish) dog that likes other dogs they are welcome to stay too. NOTE: Please, wear only socks or slippers in the house. Please, PLEASE, do not use perfumes or strong smelling deodorants / hairsprays etc. as we have migraine sufferers in the house! Thank you!
