Warmth on your skin.
Time on your side.
Two saunas, each with a character of its own. In the house, Finnish design meets old kelo timber. By the pond, a wood fire warms the sauna and its washing water. Both saunas, and the pond between them, are exclusively yours.
01THE HOUSE SAUNA
Finnish design.
Warm old timber.
Your own moment.
At the centre of the sauna sits the electric IKI Float heater, designed by Eero Aarnio. Its 160 kilos of stones store the warmth. Individual wooden seats and great kelo logs give the room its distinctive character — settle in and take your time.
After the sauna, two showers, a bathtub and an LED starry ceiling await in the adjoining bathing area. All under the same roof.

A MOMENT AT HUVIKUMPU
The fire is lit.
The evening begins.
The lakeside sauna’s wood stove and water-heating cauldron warm at their own pace.
02THE LAKESIDE SAUNA & LOUNGE
Wood-fired warmth.
Beside the water.
Preparing the lakeside sauna is part of the evening. There is firewood at the sauna, with more in the woodshed beside it. Washing water is carried from the well and warmed in the water-heating cauldron.
This is a traditional wood-fired sauna, with no showers or running hot water. The cauldron is for heating washing water.
The good old way.
The scent of wood, the grain of the logs, a ladle of water on the stones. Pause whenever you like, and return when you feel ready.
Between rounds, in the lounge.
A corner sofa, a fireplace, a fridge and a freezer. Linger in the lounge, carry on a conversation or simply watch the view through the window.
Both saunas are included in your stay. Choose one for the evening — or enjoy both during your visit.

A MOMENT AT HUVIKUMPU
Warmth gives way
to the cool forest air.
After the sauna, simply sit. Watch the water. Stay a little longer.
03YOUR OWN SPRING-FED POND
A summer dip.
A winter plunge.
The jetty stretches almost 90 metres into the scenery. In summer, swim, row or paddleboard on the pond. In winter, a pump at the end of the jetty helps maintain an ice-swimming opening; use depends on conditions and the guest instructions.
The pond is deep. Children need constant supervision near the water. Never swim or ice-swim alone. There is no maintained safe route on the ice.
04GOOD TO KNOW
Your first sauna?
Take your time.
There is no right number of rounds to complete. Our guest guide introduces the Finnish sauna ritual and the instructions for Huvikumpu’s own saunas.
Are both saunas exclusively ours?
Yes. The main villa, the house sauna, the lakeside sauna and its lounge, and the private pond are for your staying group.
Where can we wash?
The house sauna has two adjoining showers and a bathtub. At the lakeside sauna, washing water is carried from the well and heated in the cauldron. There are no showers or running hot water at the lakeside sauna.
What is already provided?
Bath and face towels are included. Bathrobes are available. Firewood is provided at the lakeside sauna, with more in the adjacent woodshed.
