Pomeroy Treehouse

£282.70 per night

You’ll spy the space aloft amongst the pine trees, with willow branches draped around the circumference like a glistening green fringe. Up the handcrafted staircase, you’ll find a trap door, that you can lower behind you to shut yourself away from the world. The lounge, a deeply calm and inviting space, has floor to ceiling windows, and a wood burner for the chillier nights. With a vast expanse of countryside surrounding you, why not take out the vintage Dutch bikes to explore the area, tiring yourself out ready for an evening of relaxation.

Despite having a generously equipped and stylishly furnished kitchen, Pomeroy also sports an outdoor kitchen area, with its own sink, BBQ, pizza oven and even an outdoor fridge – so either make an intimate meal for two in the warm confines of the kitchen or take to the balcony to enjoy food al fresco, with a view of fields towards the vineyard and the cathedral. The deck is coincidentally where you’ll also find the grand bathtub with an air spa system, large enough for two, which you can enjoy as an end of the day treat, staring out on the skyline glistening with stars as it fades from blue to black. The bath could also serve as a welcome rinse after a spell in the Finnish electric sauna on the deck, should you not be tempted to use the double outdoor showers just outside it. Were every meticulously crafted detail of this treehouse not enough, there is one last surprise, a pièce de résistance, hiding away in plain sight. If you follow the winding turn of the spiral staircase inside, you’ll emerge at the roof terrace – an enclosed square of relaxing real estate, draped in tumbling willow leaves, with seating by a gas fire pit, an outdoor tv built into the wall, and even a dumb waiter to bring snacks up from the main deck and back again, as well as a breakfast bar for taking your meals to new heights. Pomeroy isn’t just a mind-blowing treehouse stay, it’s the chance to visit your dreams.
