Following last week’s perched offerings, I realised that architects and hoteliers have caught on with humans’ perpetual fascination with treehouses. So there are now more new places high above the trees than ever before, where you can eat, study, play or even pray, indulge in your Tarzan fantasy… for the right price.
Loch Goil, Scotland. From 1759 website.Yellow Treehouse Restaurant in New Zealand. From redwoodstreehouse.co.nzThe space age look for one of the rooms in this treehotel in Sweden. From treehotel.se/ufoMonballizac, France. From chateaux-dans-les-arbres.comThe Minister’s Treehouse in Tennessee serves as a church as well. Probably the world’s largest treehouse. From Matador Network.Quiet Treehouse, custom-made by Blue Forest company. http://www.blueforest.com
I like the Loch Goil one but worry about the midgeys… but there’s something very enchanting about Blue Forest’s Quiet Tree house… Could quite happily be a writer (and reader) in residence there … where do I apply😁
Really, really, ladies – so practical all of you: kitchen fires, midges… whatever next?! You’ll be complaining about having to climb the stairs or rope ladders next… 😉
I love all of these. Years ago a therapist suggested I create a safe place in my head and when I looked in my imagination, it turned out to be a tree house. I’d live in any one of these and feel wonderfully at my ease!
Wow I really like the look of the Monballizac, the perfect perch to read from 😉
Ha, always with an eye on the reading – my kind of woman!
I quite fancy the Monbazillac one too. Nothing to do with the fact that it looks like a mini chateau… 😉
More chateaux heading your way next week, I promise…
I like the Yellow Treehouse Restaurant although it looks a little fragile and let’s hope there are no kitchen fires!

Cl-imb😱😨 oh! No lift then… Mind if the ladder is draw-upable (ah, splendid word) I may make effort…
Oh, my goodness, these all look great, Marina Sofia. The one in Monballizac is especially tempting…
They have a number of treehouses in that area, for couples, for families… and for frustrated writers trying to get away from it all, I imagine…
So much fun!
There are quite a few like the Monbazillac one in France – I’m very tempted…
The Scottish one is lovely, and do you think the Tennessee one counts as a Modernist Tree House? It’s very spectacular!
I imagine there’s no singing and dancing in that church though – it might get dangerous…

Must be something in the collective unconscious, ancestral knowledge bla bla, but so many of us find treehouses irresistible!
The Loch Goil one for me! But I do hope it has central heating…
oh my goodness…they’re wonderful – ALL of them… i wanna move in…
The last one looks like something gnomes would live in.
I need to live in one of these!
How exciting! Do tell… and how you ever abandoned it…
Sorry, I read your comment as ‘I used to live in one of those’…
Haha, I wish! How delightful it would have been, I would have never left.
I need to go and see this castle in Montbazillac. It’s dreamy.
