The spacious interiors are decked out in sublime comfort with cosy touches. Some have an upstairs bedroom complete with a balcony for soaking up the sunshine. Others have a four-poster bed in a single-storey loft. While the last is utterly unique: spend the night beneath a dome, as if sleeping out under the stars!

The cabin is reached via a 20m long wooden footbridge. The lounge area and two bedrooms are elegantly decorated with Scandinavian accents.

4. A peaceful nest at La Grée des Landes

The Yves Rocher spa-cabin nestles five metres above the ground in the branches of a century-old cypress tree at La Gacilly. The spacious suite and terrace has a welcoming, comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. True to the spirit of La Grée des Landes, the cabin has an eco-friendly design based on wood from French forests. Between autumn and spring, this is a peaceful little retreat, ideal for couples, with just a starry sky and singing birds for company. From June to September, the cabin becomes a spa.

5. Cosy cocoon on stilts in the woods of Dihan

En Ty, which means ‘house’ in Breton, Neizh, ‘nest’, and now Dremmwel ‘horizon’, a luxury, wheelchair-friendly version: welcome to the most spacious and cosy treehouses at Dihan, a 25ha haven of greenery in the Morbihan. The interiors are graced with eco-friendly materials, décor by Breton designers and linen sheets for the queen-size bed that faces the wood-burning stove. The south-facing covered terrace deck is the perfect setting for a romantic dinner, rounded off by a dip in the timber jacuzzi. Meanwhile, down below, you may well catch a glimpse of deer and horses.
