Our villas Sini and Valko are nestled in pristine nature in Rautjärvi, in the South Karelia region 🇫🇮. Combined they are Sinivalko Villat in Finnish as the colours of our flag.
Lake Nurmijärvi is crystal clear and fed by natural springs. The average depth is around 7 meters, with the deepest point reaching 28 meters. There are also shallow reefs and gently sloping shores, perfect spots for fishing or simply relaxing.
Particularly beautiful spring lies about 300 meters away on the opposite shore – a wonderful place to cool off on warm days and a taste of pure water.
Here, you can catch perch, trout and many other fish species in various ways. The most common catch is the delicious perch.
PB is set 7/2026 by our friends from Germany....48cm 200m off shore.
You can also fish with national lisence outside the area of this vary lake Nurmijärvi. There is smaller lakes, ponds and small rivers which go like a chain many kilometers to the bigger lake (Rautjärvi).
The peaceful, expansive landscape surrounding the villas offers a 75 m² terrace on each side and gently sloping stairs leading down to the dock. The area is largely mosquito-free, allowing you to fully enjoy the natural surroundings.
Despite the tranquil setting, all essential services, attractions, and leisure activities are within easy reach – if you decide to take a break from fishing and explore your holiday home’s surroundings. Many activities can be found within an 11-kilometer radius, or you can simply take a few steps to our private beach and forest area.
On request, we can also arrange special entertainment or relaxation experiences – for example, a live concert with professional musicians or sound healing sessions for your well-being.
On the large and diverse property (5,650 m²), you can relax and immerse yourself in nature. The garden offers berries, fruits, and other plants, while the surrounding forests provide mushrooms and berries – including delicious chanterelles.
We highly recommend trying trident fishing (Trident Fishing). We are happy to guide you – from weather observation to the ready-to-use equipment available here. This fishing method has a particularly magical charm during dusk or quiet night hours.
If needed, a spacious wine cellar is available for storing food and beverages.
Feel free to call this place your second home in Finland. 🎣
