Cabins
Ehta's cabins are ready-built log cabins, 20–46 m², priced at €23,200–56,400. Each cabin is manufactured in Perho at Ehta's own factory and lifted ready onto your foundations. After installation the cabin is immediately ready for use. Choose a cabin without a sauna, a sauna cabin or a villa.
Do you dream of your own escape from everyday life? A place that has everything you need to feel good. A fireplace creates atmosphere, your eyes rest on the view through the picture window and the log sauna gives unbeatable löyly. A quality kitchen and bathroom add a touch of luxury. Let us build a quality cabin tailored just for you.
Cabins
A summer cabin, a guest cabin or a gateway to year-round relaxation? Our prefab cabins, with perfectly honed proportions and details, will surprise you with how spacious they are.
Sauna cabins
Popular sauna cabins are adapting to many uses. Ehta sauna cabins are known for their uniquely oxygenated and gentle löyly (steam). Additional space alongside the sauna allows for atmospheric cabin life or wonderful accommodation in your own garden.
Villas
What does your dream villa, hideaway, holiday home or special place look like? A place where you feel at home and can relax? Who do you spend your best moments with? Ehta Villas offer almost endless possibilities for creating your dream cabin package. The design starts from clean architecture, a modern look and practical floor plans.
What size of cabin suits you?
- Cabin 20 (19.7 m², €23,200): a spacious living area and a separate room. The floor plan can also include a shower and toilet.
- Cabin 25 (25.0 m², €27,100): a living area and a separate room, or two separate rooms. Also available with a covered breezeway and a toilet.
- Cabin 30 (29.6 m², €31,200): a living area and one or two separate rooms, plus a separate entrance hall and toilet if you wish.
- Cabin 34 (33.5 m², €35,950): our largest cabin. Over 30 m², so it requires a building permit.
If you want a sauna under the same roof, see sauna cabins.
The floor plans can always be adapted to your needs and wishes. Together with you we design the positions of the doors and windows, the partition walls and any additions or removals – the models are a starting point, not a limit.
Cabin kit or ready-built cabin – what's the difference?
A "cabin kit" often means a building kit that you assemble yourself. We offer both:
- Turnkey delivery: the cabin is fully built at the factory, right down to the interior surfaces and fittings, and a crane lifts it onto the foundations. What remains on site is building the foundations and connecting the electricity.
- Kit delivery: you receive all the parts numbered and assemble the cabin yourself or with a local builder (what a kit delivery includes). A kit delivery also includes good instructions.
Your choice depends on whether delivering a whole building to the plot is possible and whether you're keen to build yourself. We check the transport route before the order.
A cabin under 30 m² without a building permit
Cabin 20, Cabin 25 and Cabin 30 (19.7–29.6 m², €23,200–31,200) fall below the 30 m² limit. If the cabin is not intended for permanent residence, it does not need a building permit. Cabin 34 and villas over 30 m² require a permit. A municipal zoning plan or building code may impose additional conditions, and a fixed stove makes the cabin suitable for residential use, in which case a permit is required.
A guest house for the garden or a holiday cottage
Many of our customers buy a cabin as a guest house next to the main building. Then guests sleep in their own peace, and there's plenty of room in the main house.
- Often, for just an overnight stay, all you need is an aitta (12–16 m², from €12,000).
- If you want a living area or a toilet in the guest house, choose Cabin 20 or 25.
- If you also want a sauna in the guest house, see sauna cabins.
What's included in the price of a cabin?
The price includes a complete building with standard equipment. Transport, installation and foundations are not included in the price. With a turnkey delivery, installation is included in the transport price, which is determined by the delivery location. For the foundations you'll receive a dimensioned drawing from us, and you'll see the transport price in your offer.
There are three equipment levels:
- Ehta Valmis: standard equipment
- Ekstra: treatment of the exterior surfaces, a fully glazed external door, basic electrics and a convection fireplace
- Unelma: in addition to the above, e.g. the winter package, a ready-made kitchen and vinyl plank flooring
The winter package includes 134 mm laminated log and additional insulation in the floor and ceiling. Cabin 30 with the winter package costs €37,191 (the basic package is €31,200). Read whether you need a cabin suitable for year-round use.
The delivery time is about 8 weeks from order confirmation, and it varies according to the order queue. Our offer is itemised in detail: you'll see the price of each optional extra in the offer. You can also book a remote design session or view the financing options.

Questions and answers
How much does a finished cabin cost?
With standard equipment, Ehta's cabins cost €23,200–35,950: Cabin 20 23 200 €, Cabin 25 27 100 €, Cabin 30 €31,200 and Cabin 34 €35,950. The villas cost €40,500–56,400.
The price includes a complete building with standard equipment. Transport and installation are priced according to the delivery location, and foundations are not included in the price. For example, a turnkey delivery of Cabin 30 to Lahti costs €3,400 including installation.
What is the difference between a cabin kit and a turnkey cabin?
A turnkey cabin is built ready at the Perho factory, down to the interior surfaces and fittings, and lifted onto your foundations. The transport price of a turnkey delivery includes installation.
In the cabin kit, i.e. in a kit delivery you get all the parts numbered and assemble the cabin yourself or with a local builder. The choice depends on how much time you have to build and whether transport can reach your plot.
Does a 30-square-metre cabin need a building permit?
Cabin 20, 25 and 30 (19.7–29.6 m²) do not require a building permit if the cabin is not intended for permanent living. A fixed stove makes the cabin intended for residential use, and then a permit is required. Cabin 34 and the villas are over 30 m² and always require a permit.
The municipality's local plan and building regulations may set additional conditions or restrictions, especially when building by the shore, so check them with the municipal building control.
Is a cabin suitable for year-round use?
With the winter package, yes. It has 134 mm laminated log and additional insulation for the floor and ceiling. Cabin 30 with the winter package costs €37,191 (basic package €31,200).
Suitable for year-round use is not a standardised term, so compare the log thickness and insulation in the offers. Read whether you need a building suitable for year-round use.
What is the delivery time for the building?
As a rule, all our buildings are delivered in about eight weeks from the order confirmation, depending on the length of the order queue. Remember to allow for any building permit process in your schedule. Some of our models (stock models) are also available with a shorter delivery time.
How much does it cost to transport the building?
The cost of transport depends on the size of the building and the distance. For turnkey deliveries, the transport price always includes installation.
Example prices:
- Sauna Cabin 20, turnkey delivery to Tampere: €900
- Cabin 30 turnkey delivery to Lahti: €3,400
- Garden Sauna 13, kit delivery to Pudasjärvi: €870
What kind of foundations are needed?
We recommend pier foundations or ground screw foundations for all our buildings. The foundations should be built carefully on a frost-free base, so that they are stable and the building does not shift. We will provide a foundation dimension drawing, making the foundations easy to build.
Can the floor plans be modified?
A garden sauna adapts to your needs, and the floor plans can be modified in many ways. Our design starts by listening to the customer's thoughts, wishes and needs. Based on them, we design the best floor plan: the positions of doors, windows and partition walls, and any additions and removals.
Can the building have a window of a different size? What about an outside door to the sauna room? In other words, can changes be made to the standard models?
We have invested a great deal of time and expertise into the design of our saunas. Our models have been refined over the years to be excellent and functional. However, we understand that needs vary and individual modifications are sometimes necessary. Please get in touch and we can discuss what we can do.
Can the building be electrified?
Yes. When the electrical work is done at the factory, the cables are hidden and no surface wiring is needed. Once the building is in place, the consumer unit is connected to the grid. You can arrange this, for example, with a local electrical installation company.
How should the exterior and interior log surfaces be treated?
The minimum treatment for exterior surfaces is a colourless protective treatment that protects against moisture and mould spots. In damp seasons we recommend treating the surfaces soon after delivery. The protective treatment can also be chosen as an optional extra, in which case it is applied at the factory. Otherwise, the same guidance applies as for treating log surfaces in general.
What warranty do the buildings have?
We give a comprehensive 12-year warranty on the log frame. The floor, roof, sauna benches and electrical installations have a 2-year warranty. Other parts are covered by each manufacturer's own warranty.
