Villa Kaunisto

Villa Alma is a cottage on the shore of Lake Pyhäjärvi at Nokia, about half an hour's drive from the centre of Tampere. It sleeps up to eight: one double bed, five single beds and a cot when needed. The wood-heated sauna takes six to eight people at a time, a terrace runs around the cottage, and the living room has a large table and a divan sofa. The property is step-free, and it can be rented flexibly — by the hour, by the day or for longer. The cottage is run by Lepoparkki, which also sells relaxation treatments, hire of a cellar hall, and meeting and remote-working days at the same address. The Nokia River Golf course is about 8.8 kilometres away.

Knuutila Manor in Siuro is owned by the town of Nokia and run by the local heritage society Siuro-Seura. Two chambers and six granary rooms in a farmhouse and granary building more than a century old have been converted into year-round hotel rooms, each with its own toilet and shower: the granary rooms sleep one to three and the chambers one to two, with an extra bed costing 30 euros. A chamber is 90 euros for one and 120 for two, rising to 100 and 130 euros in the summer season from 1 June to 30 September; a granary room costs 70 to 120 euros, or 80 to 130 in summer, and the price includes use of the sauna. The place runs on advance booking and has no staff on site; guests share the fireplace room and the kitchen. The owner notes that on summer weekends the whole manor grounds are often reserved for private events, so accommodation is worth confirming in advance. The Nokia River Golf course is about 2.7 kilometres away as the crow flies; the drive goes around via the Kulovesi bridge and is considerably longer.

Ellivuori Resort is a holiday resort on Lake Rautavesi in Sastamala with a hotel, cottages, villas and glass igloos, plus its own ski slopes. The Lakeside Golf Vammala course is a few kilometres away.
