Beautiful place for a stopover Warm and cosy with a friendly welcome! Just perfect!

Voittaa ABC.t 10-0. Idyllinen ja rauhaisa paikka. Alkoakin saa. Uimaan pääsee ja omat eväätkin voi nauttia ranta maisemassa.

Nice coffee spot. Coffee and pastries. Lovely lake view

Hieman piilossa oleva pikku taukopaikka, mutta siisti ja mukava paikka pysähdykselle.

Charming roadside cafe in an old barn, with a view to the lake (of course) and its own sand beach and pier. Try the rhubarb cake!
