Here are just some suggested locations for your Santa in Lapland holiday
Nellim Wilderness Lodge
Nellim is owned and run by a Lapland family. The cosy hotel consists of 3 buildings with hotel rooms, apartments and log cabins. An added bonus is its position on the shores of Lake Inari and is a great location to see the Northern Lights! A small hotel with no TVs, it's great for getting away from it all! For the dog sledding your children will go with the guides around the lake and the adults can go off on longer husky rides. In addition there is a fantastic toboggan run at Nellim as well as free snow shoes and cross country skiing facilities. In short, Nellim has a very relaxed atmosphere and the guides are very happy to spend time with each family and accommodate any special requests wherever possible.
