Martta oli erittäin ystävällinen ja huomaavainen majoittaja. Talo on kaunis ja tunnelmallinen ja erinomaisella sijainnilla lähellä Oulun keskustaa mutta silti hiljaisen ja puistomaisen kadun varrella. Huone, jossa yövyin, oli viihtyisä ja sänky...

Welcome to Hirsihuvi 1826 – Embrace the History in the Heart of Oulu 🤍 Welcome to Oulu’s oldest inhabited log house, still standing proudly on its original plot since 1826. Stay in a historic, unique, and beautifully restored home that combines the charm of the past with the comforts of modern living. Just a 10-minute walk to the city center and 550 meters to the Market Square. The rooms are part of the main house, so you’ll share the kitchen, bathroom, and living areas with other guests and/or Martta. The bedroom is separated by a curtain, creating a cozy and open atmosphere that reflects the home’s warm character. The indoor air is fresh and pleasant, and the thick log walls provide natural tranquility and a soothing sense of calm. Amenities: Free Wi-Fi Fully equipped kitchen Central location (550 m to Market Square) Air conditioning Quality bed and linens Free parking Sea view Bed linen and towels provided
I’m a wellness entrepreneur with a passion for sports and helping people live with more balance and ease. I host guests in my home, where only one of my children still lives part-time with me. I’m a social, open, and cheerful woman — truly enjoying this stage of life! As an entrepreneur (Lux to Heal / LUX Breathwork), I help people release stress held in the body and mind and reconnect with their authentic selves. It brings me great joy to share my beautiful and historic home with others. I hope you’ll feel the warmth and tranquility of this special place. Warmly welcome! 🤍
Our accommodation is located just a 10-minute walk from Oulu Market Square, only about 550 meters from the city center. The house sits right by the sea, surrounded by rivers and the harbor area, which bring a fresh, maritime atmosphere. The Market Square itself is one of Oulu’s most beloved meeting places – a historic square that opens up to the waterfront and the lush islands and waterways nearby. This location offers the perfect combination of peaceful, homely accommodation and close proximity to both the vibrant city center and the beautiful seaside.
