Pine Bay Lodge Retreat
For a charming, activity-packed winter break in the northern reaches of Sweden, set your sights on a classically Swedish cottage guesthouse on the coastal edge of the Luleå archipelago.
Pine Bay Lodge is homely, welcoming, and perfectly placed to enjoy the thick winter snowfall and superb displays of the northern lights. Some of the activities you can undertake on this short break include snowmobiling, husky dog sledding, hovercraft safari across the frozen lake and snowshoeing under the aurora borealis.
For a really special memory we have included a dinner on the ice! This holiday is ideal for couples looking for a romatic escape.
Visiting Pine Bay Lodge is now easier than ever with the brand new, direct flight operating between London and Luleå on Mondays & Fridays, getting you from point to point in just over 3 hours.
