holiday cottages in Hartola
Choose your favorite cottage
We have rented cottages in Rantala for almost 45 years. At the moment we have 9 different kind of cottages,
all are personal and no similar cottage can be found. Among the visitors there are those who, from year to year, will go to the same "own" cottage.
While some want to try different cottages. The atmosphere of the new villas is modern, while others are more traditional
cottages but equipped with amenities. There is even an ownsmall paradise island for those who are not looking for modern facilities..
So choose your own favorite!
All our cottages are located on the shore of the clean lake Iso-Paljo. (Lake length 2.2 km, width 800 m).
The lake is surrounded by a peaceful rural landscape, with varied fields and rolling forest areas.
Own yard, beach and rowing boat
All of our cottages are located beside a lake and have own private beach. Depending on the cottage,
there is a 10-40m sandy beach with a dock and rowing boat. If needed we also borrow life jackets for both small and bigger
guests. All cottages have their own yard, so you can enjoy sun and beautiful scenery, play games with family and dog
or read a good book in the yard.

We take care of the environment
We want to take care of our environment in Rantala, and even small choices have an impact on the environment.
We avoid unnecessary burden on nature: we sort and recycle wastes, we limit water consumption by cottages
with electric drillers in the toilet and in the kitchen. Each cottage has sorting facilities and waste is collected centrally
on a waste bin containing containers for landfill, glass, metal, batteries and bio waste. Almost all cottages have
heating pump, a heat-storing fireplace, and a few cabins are heated by geothermal heat. There is also a small solar
power plant installed for the farm, whereby electricity is provided ecologically. We keep lake Iso-Paljo clean, no motor vechiles are allowed.
We also recommend to use products and services in the nearby area.
Have a nice holiday and welcome to Rantala!
If, during your holiday, you discover something is missing or the service needs improving, do not hesitate to contact the cottage owner. Do not allow your holiday to be spoiled due to some fault of problem which your host will be able to put right immediately. We are happy to help you.
