    Great location and value for money. Not overpriced like so many places. Big plus for the fireplace and floor heating that is must for this kind of cabin for winter sports. Also great that pets were allowed to visit inside. Kids loved the upstairs...

    Stunning location, beautiful views and very quiet. Beautiful walk through the woods to the main town about 20-30 mins depending on weather. Car is ideal though if possible but not essential. Able to do everything we wanted without. The house is...

Olemme panostaneet mökin viihtyvyyteen ja tyyliin paljon. Siellä on runsaasti harrastusvälineitä ja aina riittävästi kuivia takkapuita. Mökin sijainti on rauhallinen mutta lähellä palveluja. Puhdas Lapin luonto, ladut, rinteet, järvet ovat lähellä.
Ylläshilla kelomökin omistajana minulle on erityisen tärkeää, että vieraamme viihtyvät mökissämme lomansa aikana. Olen valmis itse ja laajan palveluverkostomme avulla auttamaan vieraitamme parhaitten ja monimuotoisten aktiviteettien toteuttamisessa.
Ylläshilla sijaitsee Suomen monipuolisimman ja parhaan laskettelukeskuksen, Ylläksen alueella. Alueella on läpi vuoden monipuolinen harrastus- ja aktiviteettitarjontan ja nautittavana on myös upea, puhdas ja kaunis Suomen Lapin luonto. Alue kuuluu Pallas-Yllästunturin kansallispuistoalueeseen. Yllästunturin molemmin puolin on kylät, Äkäslompolo ja Ylläsjärvi. Ylläshilla sijaitsee seitsemän tunturin kylässä Äkäslompolossa. Kylää ympäröi seitsemän tunturia. Äkäslompolo on yleisilmeeltään kylämäinen, mutta se on palveluiltaan monipuolinen ja moderni. Kylässä on mm. Suomen suurin K-market Jounin kauppa, useita ravintoloita, urheilu- ja matkamuistomyymälöitä, apteekki, Alko, lääkäriasema sekä luontokeskus Kellokas. Ylläshillasta on n 1,5 km kylän keskustaan. Ylläshillan pihalta on helppo lähteä suoraan luontoon - esim. luontopoluille, marjastamaan, hiihtämään, lumikenkäilemään ja maastopyöräilemään. Pyörämatkan tai automatkan päässä on muita kokemismahdollisuuksia vaikka kuinka paljon. Ylläshilla sijaitsee Nilivaaran rinteella ja mökiltä on kaunis näkymä Yllästunturille sekä Kellostapulitunturille.
