About the host

I love to meet people from different places and various languages, and introduce this old but constantly converted traditional farmhouse to new people.

Why they chose this property

Lapinkangas is a rare and well preserved, nationally cherished cultural landscape in Finland, along Northern/Eastern bank of Oulujoki River.

The traditional settlement is lengthwise scattered between River Oulujoki and Road Vaalantie. The farm properties were thinly formed perpendicularly to both river and road. That let every property to get a fair share of far away forest and swamp, fields closer to the road, and a portion of the river shore for salmon fishing.

Unlikely for Oulu overall landscape, Lapinkangas is not totally flat, as only the contemporal river valley used to be under the sea (a few millennia ago). The road runs along the esker ridges (formed by melting glaciers of the ice age), and gives ample views over the agricultural fields and the Oulujoki.

The ancient origins of the landscape explains also the extraordinary quality of our delicious tap water, groundwater locally harvested, and distributed on both sides of the river in the Pikkarala Ridge area.

Local cultural history is fantastically celebrated by the Art Path of Sanginkontu, along Kiekonlenkki ski/jogging route, ca 10km towards Oulu from our place.

What makes this property unique

Layers of centuries visible in the construction, the layout, and the decoration of the traditional (but rare semidetached) farmhouse building.
