@ Arctic Retreat

Hidden deep within the forest beside the Råne River, Arctic Retreat is a secluded log cabin sanctuary where comfort meets the call of the wild. With just a handful of timber cabins, this off-grid haven invites you to disconnect from the ordinary and reconnect with nature on your terms. With Off the Map Travel, every stay is a bespoke experience, tailored to your pace, passions, and sense of adventure.

Why Stay at Arctic Retreat?

This isn’t simply a getaway, it’s a return to something essential. Whether you’re drawn by the crackle of firewood, the hush of falling snow, or the golden calm of summer light, Arctic Retreat delivers rare stillness and extraordinary moments. Every stay is a story shaped by you.

Where Stillness Meets Storytelling

Your cabin is just the beginning. At Arctic Retreat, we’ll work with you to design a personalised itinerary, from active Arctic adventures to mindful, slow-living rituals, crafted entirely around what moves you.

Expect:

Cosy, private log cabins with wood-burning stoves and riverside hot tubs
Tailor-made activities such as snowshoeing, canoeing, or husky sledding
Locally inspired cuisine, prepared with seasonal ingredients and Sami flavours
Unmatched access to silence and scenery, under the Northern Lights or Midnight Sun

Swedish Lapland, Your Way

Whether you crave stillness, movement, or a little of both, we’ll tailor your retreat to feel effortless and unforgettable.

Tailor-made experiences might include:

Northern Lights viewings by dogsled, snowmobile or from your own hot tub
Private husky safaris, designed to match your energy and experience
Cultural encounters with Sami communities for meaningful local insight
Summer forest bathing, wild swimming or guided canoe journeys through untouched wilderness

I used OTMT to organise a holiday to see the Northern Lights for my partner’s 50th birthday. They took the time to understand my priorities, the kinds of places we like to stay and the things we like to do. They recommended a fabulous itinerary in Norway centred around the Lyngen Experience Lodge. The holiday itself lived up to expectations and I have no hesitation in recommending OTMT. They listened carefully during the planning and delivered the perfect present for my partner.

Amy was a great help with planning this trip. Our trip turned out amazing. I also was very grateful for Off the Map’s Front Desk service, which promptly handled an on the spot issue we had.

Karen

We have loved it so much here that we have extended our stay and will come back to Bjornfjell and stay in one of their cabins until Jan 3 then we are staying in the igloo hotel the night of the 3rd. 😊We added a few excursions this week – we did the whale trip on the RIB boat (wow!), toured the igloo hotel (which is why we decided to book the last night!) and did the reindeer sleigh at Sorrisniva. You were so right, the bonfire excursion was incredible!!It has been an absolutely amazing trip!

Kristen

Amy planned a fantastic trip! Everything was very well-thought out. All transfers went smoothly, accommodations were amazing, great restaurant recommendations and the tours were once-in-a-lifetime, can’t book it yourself off the internet experiences. The guides were all fantastic. Communications were prompt and everything worked exactly the way it was supposed to. What a pleasure! Already working on our next trip.

What an amazing trip we are having. It is incredible. Many many thanks for arranging such an incredible trip.

Giles

We really enjoyed our Norwegian adventure despite the -22 days! Unfortunately no real experience of viewing the Lights but we did capture a couple of images on our last night – too much cloud otherwise so lots of snow. We really enjoyed the husky lodge – not at all what we had tentatively imagined. Thanks for your assistance, maybe next time we will see the Lights in all their glory.

Andrew

Hello Lucy!! Kim and I had a fantastic time in Iceland! Probably one of my top 3 trips I’ve ever taken!
It was everything we asked for and you did a wonderful job coordinating it all so beautifully!!
Thank you very much and we will contact you again when we get ready to plan our trip to Norway and Lapland!

Doreen

The ease of everything stood out to me. All we had to do was be there at the right time. The dog sledding was the highlight for my daughter and sister. We had the best time! For me, Manshausen was the highlight. We were very lucky and the only guests there for the majority of our stay. The staff was amazing and the food was so delicious. We had moose steak and it was the best meal I’ve ever had.

The cabins were comfortable and we were so lucky to have 2 clear nights where we just sat and watched the northern lights. We were able to get some awesome pictures too.

I appreciate all your time and care with planning our trip! I won’t hesitate to use Off the Map travel for our next adventure.

Kelly

We did! Everything was truly wonderful! I think the Holman Husky Lodge was our favourite place. Beautiful accommodations, but best of all, wonderful people! Everyone was so friendly and accommodating, excellent food, we really enjoyed our time there. We also greatly enjoyed Bergen! Opus XVI was beautiful and we loved being able to walk to restaurants and bars and take in the sights. All of our drivers were punctual and friendly. The itinerary was full but not overfull.

Thank you so much! It was an epic trip, we are taking home wonderful memories!

Shelly

Fantastic trip to Svalbard which delivered the true Arctic experience we were hoping for. The hotels were excellent and the activities – dog sledding and snowmobile expedition were lead by first class guides.
Top tip! The champagne tasting in the world’s most northerly wine cellar in the exceptional Funken Lodge is not to be missed!

Faith

I would thoroughly recommend this company. Their planning and advice was spot on. Alex responded to my calls and emails very promptly. I will definitely use them again for future trips.

Rosie
