‘A fairytale place, I thought it would be for kids but it’s so vibrant and spectacular that I was really impressed’
There are sleigh rides, snowmobile safaris and an opportunity to see the Northern Lights, just metres from the Arctic Circle, not to mention guaranteed snow.
Described as “a festive wilderness village where fairytales come alive and magical adventures await at every turn”, the Santa Claus Holiday Village has a 4.5-star rating on TripAdvisor and there’s a way to get there for less.

One visitor said: “A fairytale place, fantastic experience. I thought it would be for kids but it’s so vibrant and spectacular that I was really impressed.
“The cottage was fantastic with lovely lights all over and the sauna was absolutely amazing given the snow outside. Very nice and comfortable rooms with kitchenette if needed. Breakfast was very nice.
“Highly recommended for a family trip and I suggest staying at the village where all the activities are. Reindeer and husky rides were nice and the ice restaurant was a unique experience.”

One mum was also enchanted by the experience: “The village and location is truly magical. You have to experience beautiful Rovaniemi and surrounds at least once!
“We only visited the village early in the morning or after the buses left (which you can do when staying in the cottages). All tours left from this location and buses were also readily available. This is a bucket-list trip and was wonderful.”
Other visitors highlighted meeting huskies, reindeer, alpacas and donkeys, and seeing the Northern Lights.
On the downside, some visitors criticised the cost of food in the shops and restaurants in the area, with one also saying that the breakfast “could’ve been better”.
Wowcher describes the accommodation as “a cosy Arctic cottage with a private sauna and practical comforts for snowy stays.
“On-site restaurants, festive activities and easy access to Santa’s Office and the Arctic Circle line make this a wonderfully convenient Lapland base.”
