A tree house in winter – is that possible?
Particularly Houses in snowy areas are popular and turn your vacation into a stay in a winter wonderland. In the middle of the snow in the north, you can see the northern lights, for example, or in more southern regions, you can start some great outdoor activities during the day. In the evening, you can stay in a warm bed and read, or wrap yourself in blankets and enjoy a hot coffee or homemade mulled wine on the terrace. All while it is wonderfully snowy and completely quiet. Either way, in a treehouse hotel you follow the rhythm of nature much more than anywhere else.
What do I have to consider in the treehouse hotel?
In addition to the great advantages of adventure, proximity to nature and peace and quiet, you should also be aware of possible inconveniences before going on a treehouse holiday. If you can't do without hotel comfort, you probably won't be happy in a treehouse, no matter how elegant it is. In most cases, space is somewhat limited and the bathrooms are rather simple. You also have to forego air conditioning or room service in favor of proximity to nature.
And of course, you are more at the mercy of nature here. Strong wind, rain or extreme temperatures can make your stay unpleasant. The insulation is often not as effective as in normal buildings. Because the houses are often somewhat remote, you need to travel a long way to get to weather alternatives such as museums or restaurants. This is usually only possible with your own car, as public transport is unfortunately rarely well connected.
Last but not least, you may also need to consider the safety aspects beforehand. Although modern tree houses are built safely, there is still a certain risk. The height can be a danger, especially for children. Climbing up and down ladders or suspension bridges also requires caution and care. This will ensure that the tree house adventure remains a fond memory for everyone.
Conclusion
A holiday in a treehouse hotel can be an extraordinary and unforgettable experience. The proximity to nature, the unique construction and the peace and quiet that such accommodations offer are incomparable. Perfect for nature lovers, adventurers and romantics, a treehouse offers a perfect escape from everyday life and an opportunity to experience the world from a different perspective.
