RewildThings Treehouses
Nestled in an enchanting bend of the River Severn in Gloucestershire, RewildThings Treehouses offers a captivating escape within an ancient country estate. This extraordinary retreat invites you to step away from the hustle and bustle and immerse yourself in the serenity of nature. Designed and built with a respectful nod to ancient wisdom, each of the six bespoke cabins offers a sanctuary high in the canopy overlooking the wild wetlands where nature roams free.
The experience of arriving at RewildThings is like stepping into another world. The journey to your treehouse is accompanied by a symphony of birds and wildlife, a prelude to the tranquility that awaits. The contemporary and meticulously designed exterior of each treehouse captivates guests even before they step inside, promising an unforgettable stay amidst lush landscapes.
A testament to sustainable and innovative design, each treehouse has been created by local talent: architects Millar + Howard Workshop, interior designer Tracey Boyd and furniture maker Anselm Fraser, all united by a commitment to sustainability and excellence. Built by eco-conscious studio Greenheart, the homes stand as a beacon of eco-friendly luxury, blending harmoniously into the surrounding forest. Each treehouses is named after an islands answer to the guiding spirits found in the medicine wheels of the Americas and beyond: Adder, Kite and Wildcat are all fairly similar and can sleep 3. Wren is cosy and for 2. Earth can sleep 4 and Sky is fully accessible and can also sleep 4.
Inside, the treehouses unfold into a haven of Nordic-inspired luxury. From the sleek kitchen with modern appliances to the cosy living area warmed by a wood-burning stove, every detail is designed for comfort and elegance. The double bedroom, decorated with plush linen and a glass door opening onto a private balcony, offers a tranquil retreat. The tranquil bathroom, equipped with a rainforest shower and organic toiletries, completes the experience of indulgence.
Outside, the magic of RewildThings extends to a private clearing amidst ancient forest, where a log-fired hot tub and outdoor kitchen combine the pleasures of alfresco dining with the enchantment of the forest. A stroll down a wooden walkway reveals a secluded haven where luxury meets the wild.
Beyond the comfort of the treehouses, RewildThings embarks on a journey of rewilding and regenerative agriculture. The property breathes new life and celebrates biodiversity and the vibrant ecosystem. From roaming herbivores to blossoming flora, the land is a testament to the magic that nature conjures when left untamed.
RewildThings is not just a stay; it’s an invitation to rekindle your connection with the wild, to enjoy the tranquillity of the Gloucestershire countryside and to savour the produce of the land, from the bakery’s fresh bread to the greenhouse’s seasonal delights. Whether it’s exploring the surrounding area, enjoying activities such as walking, or simply enjoying the peace and quiet of your tree house, this retreat offers a unique blend of adventure and tranquillity.
Within easy reach of Gloucester’s Kingsholm Stadium and the picturesque Cotswold Water Park, with Bristol Airport as the nearest airport, RewildThings Treehouses promise an accessible yet secluded getaway. It’s a place where you can stop, breathe and let the wildness of nature reawaken your spirit.
