Nature experiences in Teijo National Park
Teijo National Park is located right next to Matilda Villas and offers a wonderful setting for hiking, camping, berry picking, mushroom picking and enjoying the peace of nature all year round.
The area offers a variety of marked trails, beautiful lake landscapes, cliffs and marshlands, which are suitable for both short walks and day trips for the whole family.
Spending the evening at the hut
Matilda Villas has its own atmospheric hut in the middle of the cottage village. It's nice to gather around the campfire and spend the evening in peaceful togetherness.
If the hut is booked, you can also spend the evening at a campfire site on the beach, admiring the magical starry sky.
We collaborate with local catering professionals, so if you wish, you can order a chef to prepare the food on site.
Fishing all year round
The fishing waters of Mathildedal and Teijo offer excellent opportunities for diverse fishing. We have our own rowing boats for our guests to use, with easy access to the water, and in the winter season, ice fishing is easily accessible from our own beach.
We organize guided fishing trips with a local professional fisherman. Ask us more and we will plan a fishing experience that suits you.
Hop on the bike and head to town!
Matilda Villas has free bicycles for guests to use. It's a quick bike ride from us to the Mathildedal ironworks village, which is about a kilometer away.
By bike, it is easy to explore the village's restaurants, village brewery, boutiques, and historical surroundings at your own pace.
Family vacation
Our cottage village is a child-friendly and cozy vacation spot. There is a playground for children, with swings, a sandbox and a climbing frame. The playground is located next to the hut, so it's easy to cook lunch while you're busy – and food always tastes better outdoors!
In the summer, there is a small chicken coop in the yard, a water trampoline on the beach, and the fairy-tale forest surrounding the cottage village invites the little ones to go on adventure trips.

Meri-Teijo Golf is located approximately three kilometers from Matilda Villas. The high-quality and scenic course offers a pleasant setting for both amateurs and more experienced players.

"Visited a couple of times. Excellent since the change of ownership. Now you can see the sea and the beach in a great design. The cottages have also received a lot of new features. Big thanks to the manager and owner of the place for their really quick response to everything. We will continue to use it and will definitely accommodate guests in the future as well.
Also suitable for businesses and vacationers."

"A wonderful renovated cottage village next to the village of Matilda. In the village, a bike ride away, there is a really nice restaurant Terho, where at least on summer weekends there are gigs and other programs. You could borrow bikes from Matilda Villa. Saimaa was playing during our visit! Golf course nearby. The cottage was clean, with a decent sauna and good barbecue facilities."

Here for you
Matilda Villas underwent a change of ownership in 2023 and reopened in the spring of 2024 after extensive renovations. The goal has been to create an even more comfortable and safer cottage village where vacationing feels high-quality all year round.
The renovations are visible in the cottages and throughout the area: the beds, sofas, textiles, dishes and other equipment in the cottages have been renewed, the environment has been developed to be more functional and services have been diversified. The area now includes, among other things, an electric car charging station, new barbecue areas and a cozy beach with sun loungers and activities. Boats and bicycles are available to guests free of charge.
The renovations have been largely carried out by local forces, and cooperation with local entrepreneurs is an important part of Matilda Villas' operations. We want to be an active part of Mathildedal's vibrant village community.
