A kota or “hunting shelter” in Lapland is a hexagonal chalet made from raw wood and half-logs. Originally from Finland, this small chalet has a variety of different uses. The native Sami people, who live mainly from reindeer herding, hunting and fishing in the harsh climate of the far north, have been using kotas for over a century.
Our Ginkgo Biloba kota features a cosy parents’ bedroom with a double bed, a shower room and a living/dining room with a bench convertible into a double bed.
It has a small kitchen area with a refrigerator, sink and hob for preparing meals and breakfast.
This unusual, comfortable accommodation option is fun to stay in with its “elf house” feel. And it’s surprisingly spacious inside! Its 22 m² can accommodate 2 to 4 people.
