Central Finland


Located above the rapids, with curved picture windows providing spectacular views, this striking 1940s villa was built as a residence for the local paper company's owner, It's now primarily a wedding and events venue, but during summer it serves the town's best lunch buffet, laden with dishes such as smoked salmon and fennel soup, and wild boar stew with cranberries.
