Pyynpesä

Pyynpesä is a moorland built 33m² log cabin about 3 kilometres from the village of Hattuvaara. The cabin has room for a minimum of four persons at a time.

The cottage has a lobby with entrance to a wood-heated cabin and the sauna. In the cabin is a kitchen nook, a dining table with benches and bunk-beds for four people. The beds have mattresses, pillows and blankets.

The cottage has no electricity; the cabin is heated by wood and lighted by gaslight. There is a set of dishes for six persons; the wood stove in the cabin can be used for cooking.

In the cabin's courtyard there is a log lean-to that can be used, for example, as a outdoors kitchen. Near the lean-to is also a good-sized table with benches. Also in the courtyard there is an outhouse with a woodshed and the privy.

Washing water is taken from the well behind the cottage but drinking water must be brought from elsewhere; the nearest water spring is about 300 metres away nearby the road leading to Hattuvaara.

In the wintertime a snowmobile can be used for an additional charge.

The cottage is fully accessible from the road. The village shop and the nearest bus stop are both about 3 kilometres away. The railway station in Joensuu is 123 kilometres away and the distance to the Ilomantsi centre is about 43 kilometres.
