From Swiss Family Robinson to the lost boys of Peter Pan’s hideout and Tarzan, the treehouse has long invoked the imagination of both children and grown-ups alike, and these ones brought-to-life so and banded together by us so that you may have the opportunity to live them out, are no different.

1) Secret Tree House Blue Mountains, Australia

Lifted openheartedly out of the pages of a storybook, and nestled above the oceans of evergreens which cascade over Blue Mountain National Park, this treehouse is one that boasts, aside from spectacularly unparalleled perspectives of the park, which can be soaked up in its entirety thanks to the presence of floor-to-ceiling windows, a kitchenette, fireplace, spa and queen-sized bed. Although, where its character unquestionably rests, is in its agrestic interior, think ligneous accents, oil lamps and shearling throws.

For those in search of an introspective hideaway, there’s no accommodation that does this more than the Kruger National Park’s Ngala Treehouse, cocooned deep inside an enclave where lions, elephants, cheetahs and buffalo roam against the brilliantly inimitable landscape of an African crepuscule. The space itself boasts four platforms enveloping a bedroom, an opening-plan gallery and a splendiferous observation veranda.

Wrapped around the trunk of an elephantine eucalyptus sapling, this treehouse with its elevated ceilings, crescent-moon bed, downy soft bohemian cushions and earthenware aesthete, is one which looks to definitely transport its guests to contemporary heights, high enough in fact, to appreciate the flocks of flamingos soaring over the lagoon.

5) Treetop Fiddan, Norway

Enveloped by indomitable fjords and a domineering forest, Treetop Fiddan encourages its guests to not only live within the natural landscape, but appreciate all it has to offer, from the drinking water which can be accrued from a nearby farm, to the berries that can be foraged before being set aside in a solar-powered fridge.
