SANTALAHTI. Where we'll be staying!

I guess the blog name should now be changed to "Scotland to Finland" but well, who cares!
We have confirmed accommodation, and are staying in a place 130kms east of Helsinki, near to the town of Kotka. There, at the only 5 star holiday resort in the south of Finland, Santalahti, we have booked what is called a cottage, but which is in fact a very large wooden lodge, which sleeps 10.







Why ten? Well, Anna's mum, dad, sister Olga, and aunt and uncle will all be coming from St Petersburg to Finland, on the bus ( a five hour journey) to stay with us there.As the photos show, it looks a great place to stay and I know they are all looking forward to their first journey to Finland, as are we! There is a beach only 70 metres from the house, so if the weather is hot, Sandy and Olivia will be able to sample the Finnish bay! There are also plenty of areas of fun for children. Sandy will be taking his bike.
The house itself has such luxuries as a sauna and a jacuzzi, as well as two bathrooms and tvs all over the place, dvd players, and a fully equipped kitchen area.
