Testimonials

Our customers know best what kind of people would enjoy the milieu of Farmhouse Sipilä. These testimonials have been given in different seasons during 2015–2020 and filtered according to how our customers have experienced the surroundings of the farmhouse in particular.

We had such a nice time here. Our home is a large, old house as well, and we enjoyed the atmosphere of the old farmhouse very much.

It was nice to bathe in the garden sauna that was within the range of baby monitors, and the heat in the sauna was wonderful. We looked for more information about the history of the house and its neighbourhood, but we couldn’t find any apart from a short summary in the folder.

Your connection with The Farm Finland was mentioned on your website. It should now be used in marketing! It was fun to think that we were using the same sauna that the contestants had used.

Our time here was great and we had lots of fun.

”The farmyard was large and nice for the children. It was fun to swim in the lake, and the new sauna was very good. We also tested the garden sauna, and the heat was lovely there. The barbecue was quite low and grilling was not easy. The hut was nice, though, and we were able to use the grill when it was raining. The staff was friendly, and everything else worked very well. A truly idyllic milieu, great especially for families with children.”

”An idyllic and homely place! All the necessary equipment and kitchenware etc. was provided, including toys, travel cot and high chair. The reception was hospitable :)”

”A large 100 year old farmhouse with everything you need, nice atmosphere. Garden with a BBQ hut and sauna and a big barn. The garden sauna was wonderful, 4 loads of firewood and it was ready for bathing. The beach was too far away, but it was available. A good choice for those who enjoy a peaceful stay in the countryside.”

– Ossi Parkkinen – Visited the farm in July 2015

”A wonderfully idyllic and peaceful place. Tidy and equipped with everything we needed. Lovely heat in the sauna and the lake water was warm and soft. It would be useful to mark the outside waste bin better, so that it’s easier to find if people don’t remember / haven’t been told where it is. Found it easily after asking!

A compost bin would be excellent and it would fit nicely in the corner of the garden.

A great place, one of the best among the dozens we have tested. Thank you very much and have a nice summer!”
