About the host
Hosted by Timo Gleed

Hello, I’m Timo, your dedicated host during your stay at Viipuri, a holiday home steeped in history and charm. For over 45 years, we have been welcoming guests to this enchanting sanctuary, and I’m excited to share what makes it so special to our family.
Nestled on land originally purchased by my Great-Great Grandparents in 1904, Viipuri is surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of Ringwood Forest. They planted the stunning trees and vibrant Rhododendrons that grace our grounds today, and even laid a full grass tennis court where our main lawn now flourishes. This lawn has a rich history, having been ploughed for potatoes by the army during the War. Nearby, a World War II Army Pillbox stands as a poignant reminder of those times.
In the 1950s, the Forestry Commission planted majestic pine forests to the north, enveloping our property in a serene woodland atmosphere that beautifully complements the Finnish style of our log cabin. The story of Viipuri continues with my Grandfather Richard, who married my Finnish Grandmother, Helena, and in the 1980s brought a piece of Finland to Ringwood by importing a classic log house, aptly named Viipuri after my grandfather’s birthplace in Karelia.
In 2025, we completed a meticulous renovation, elevating the entire house to introduce a brand-new brick-built ground floor. Our goal was to blend contemporary luxury with the timeless charm of the original Finnish log design. Now, Viipuri spans three levels, featuring four patio doors that seamlessly connect you to the enchanting Ringwood Forest.
This home is not just a holiday retreat; it’s a cherished part of our family heritage. We invite you to join us as we celebrate the fifth decade of our service, creating unforgettable memories in a place that feels like home. Experience the magic of Viipuri—where history, nature, and modern luxury come together for an extraordinary getaway.
