Average review: “We are both completely enthusiastic about this place. I have traveled in 50 countries and have lived in several countries, but this is now my number one favorite spot. I would definitely recommend it to a friend. Thanks for this cozy experience !!”

The space
It is directly seaside. 2 bedrooms, living room with kitchenette, sauna.

Henrik and Triin's cottage is a superb getaway for busy lifestyle people who enjoy wild nature, seaside and going off grid for a few days (or weeks!). The sound of nature sucks you in and stress is gone from the moment one arrives.

You'll find it very relaxing to be able to dip in the fresh sea, chill in the shade, walk in the forest, eat watermelon or grill in the outdoor fireplace. The place is very well organised - smart solutions with (washing) water, gas and solar panel. You will not feel yourself uncomfortable at all, quite the opposite, reminds how little is needed to be absolutely blissed.

It is also very cozy and homey. It doesn't feel like being a visitor at someone's else's space (e.g. personal items) nor like an anonymous guest house. It is really the perfect combo of being welcomed and feeling at ease, has its character. The place is obviously cared for by people who enjoy and love the place themselves.

The place has everything needed - dishes, pots-pans, matches, mosquito nets, even repellants for emergency. The sauna's fireplace is prepared for you and as an avid sauna goer, you can appreciate the neat steamy sauna, which will not tire, but relax all the way. Very good sauna!

The house will be mostly mosquito free and you will have a really good quality sleep.

You could easily spend a week or two in this place (or well, to be honest, a month!), without leaving it AT ALL to be honest. Read books, write, sleep, sunbathe, swim and relax. Being able to not to worry about daily stuff, disconnect from phone and laptop, news and need to do something, to-do lists glooming over ones neck, ... none of that. Instead only to bother to pump some water for washing dishes or preparing some food, is just my perfect way of a holiday in this peaceful place.

Guest access
Reaching the place with car is easy. The very last "dirt road" (some 500 meters) can be trickier with a low car, so don't speed and be aware of few rocks that can damage the car if driven fast. Just drive calm and You'll be fine.

I would say, the perfect way to enjoy this place is also to hike or bike. So much more joy than driving through places with a car.

Other things to note
“Off-GRID” by us means:
* Jotul fireplace to heat it up well
* Good Finnish sauna
* Nice USB Shower in sauna
* Stove in kitchen by GAS
* Electricity from solar
* 4G LTE for your personal hotspot
* Water from well with hand pump
* toilet is outdoors
* small refidgerator

Where you’ll be

Muriste, Pärnu County, Estonia

It is seaside. A real beach house.
Between nature reserve.
Lot of birds, fauna and flora. Ideal for fishing or for beach vacation.

It is a nature-protected peninsula where our yard has a great sense of sight to meet a goat and fox, but not other people. There is only 1 cottage on the same side of our house,
but we are separated by a forest corner and the owners can be seen there. So the villagers have a bird song, a wave holiday, and sometimes a bit of a mosquito line. It's relatively difficult to find a more secluded place by the sea;)

We go each year with our children to Ranna Rantšo (https://www.rannarantso.com/) that is like a sanctuary for farm animals where the kids are allowed to feed and touch lots of animals and they just totally love it. The distance is approximately 25 min by car.

We have a small and not deep bay here and our boat (takes up 4 person, has the life jacket for children also) is at your service, 40 metres from house so you can take time to spend it just here as well.

If you haven't been in Haapsalu city yet I suggest to visit it as well. This small and quiet city has a nice castle area in which garden is also a big children playground (https://www.salm.ee/en/museums/haapsalu-castle-museum/), then of course a Ilon Wikland playhouse (https://www.salm.ee/en/museums/ilons-wonderland/) and lots of nice caffees, yacht harbour etc.

We will also leave to our house some things your kids can play with - just to have something to do before going to sleep etc.
