A holiday with friends at Taevaskoja
Looking for a place to spend a weekend with friends, celebrate something or simply break out of the everyday routine? Taevaskoja is a great fit for a group of friends who want to be surrounded by nature, take time to be together and, if they wish, add a sauna, activities or a shared meal to their holiday.
Here, a holiday doesn't have to be just about staying the night. You can start the day with a hike, spend the evening in the sauna or by the campfire, and wake up together at a leisurely pace the next morning. Everything you need can be planned as one complete package — accommodation, catering, activities and a good time with your people.
What kind of group of friends is it suitable for?
Taevaskoja suits groups of friends looking for a relaxed place close to nature to spend time together.
It works well for:
- a weekend with friends
- a smaller reunion
- celebrating a birthday or special occasion
- an active holiday in nature
- a sauna and campfire evening
- a joint holiday for several families
- a more relaxed time with your own group
- a holiday-like event where you don't have to rush home right away
The exact arrangement depends on the size of the group, the desired privacy, the season and how active a holiday you want.
Why come to Taevaskoja with friends?
Your own time and your own people
Taevaskoja makes it possible to truly get together — without rushing, city noise or everyday distractions. Here you can slow down, have longer conversations, get out into nature and spend time at your group's own pace.
Nature, sauna and shared activities
Forest trails, the Ahja River, the sauna, the hot tub, a campfire evening and active pursuits give a holiday with friends more substance. The day can be relaxed, active or a pleasant balance of the two.
Your holiday becomes a complete package
Accommodation can be combined with catering, activities, the sauna and evening get-togethers. That way you don't have to plan every part separately, and the weekend can unfold more simply and naturally.
Food straight from the garden, just like at grandma's in the countryside.
