Valamon Luostari
Valamontie 42, 79850 Uusi-Valamo, Finland – Great location - show map
A very unusual place to stay. While more touristy at peak times during the day, once the day-trippers leave, calm descends and it feels like a monastery again. The berry wines, for sale in the shop and most of which can be drunk in the wine bar, are very good.
