These perspex igloos with kitchenette and bathroom are on the side of the fell. The beds
are motorised so you move around while skywatching. Once you're paying these out-
rageous prices, you might as well upgrade to the premium ones in the front row. There's
also a luxury house with large apartment suites.

The atmospherically candlelit downstairs Kellari restaurant does very tasty Lappish meals;
meat dishes are stronger than fish. The Lapland tapas plate has some standout flavours.
Upstairs, pints of homebrew and a terrace that catches the evening sun are reasons to
linger.
