Nestled in the serene beauty of Arvidsjaur, Camp Gielas offers a cozy retreat for those seeking a city break amidst nature. The tiny cottage exudes a camping charm, surrounded by picturesque snow-covered trees and a tranquil lake, perfect for a peaceful getaway.Conveniently located just 4 km from Prästberget Sports Centre Ski Lift, this eco-conscious haven provides a sustainable escape, with the option to purchase cleaning services separately for added convenience. The sauna and free WiFi elevate the experience, while the well-equipped kitchenette and seating area ensure a comfortable stay.My companions and I were pleasantly surprised by the warm hospitality of the staff, who provided us with essentials and made us feel at home. The cottage's amenities, including a tea/coffee maker, stovetop, and flat-screen TV, catered to our needs, offering a blend of modern comfort and rustic charm.For outdoor enthusiasts, the option of a barbecue and garden furniture allows for al fresco dining amidst the breathtaking scenery. Despite the initial impression of a small room, the camp's privacy and good water pressure added to the overall comfort.Whether you're chasing the Northern Lights or simply seeking a peaceful retreat, Camp Gielas in Arvidsjaur offers a unique blend of simplicity and tranquility, making it a hidden gem for eco-conscious travelers and nature lovers alike.
