Sleeping in a treehouse

With a treehouse overnight stay, you stay in an accommodation made of wood and built above the ground among the trees. Treehouse stays vary widely in style and luxury. Some treehouses offer basic amenities such as a bed, lighting and possibly a small sitting area, while other treehouses have more luxurious amenities such as private bathrooms, kitchenettes and heating. The appeal of a treehouse stay lies mainly in the unique experience of being in nature and the cozy decor of the treehouse. Treehouse stays are currently very popular with both families and nature lovers looking for a special overnight stay.

If you are looking for a special holiday home for a short or long holiday then a treehouse is probably the ideal accommodation. In fact, many treehouses that you can rent for a holiday are often furnished just like an ordinary holiday home. These treehouses have a bedroom with normal beds, a bathroom and a kitchen. The only difference is that a treehouse holiday home hangs a few feet above the ground. You sleep among the treetops and experience a cozy overnight stay that cannot be compared to anything else. Curious about such a luxurious treehouse? Check out this treehouse in the Netherlands or this design treehouse in Croatia. 

Spending the night in a treehouse is often a dream of many children (and their parents). After all, treehouses have something magical and adventurous that stimulates children's imagination. For children, treehouses represent a special place where they can create their own fantasy world, have adventures and hide. The idea of sleeping high among the branches of a tree and waking up to the sounds of nature is exciting and enchanting to many children. It can offer a sense of freedom and adventure that perfectly suits the playful and curious nature of children. Therefore, many children will enthusiastically dream of having a treehouse and being able to sleep in it.

Tree tents are also known as hanging tents and are an alternative form of sleeping in trees. Instead of a traditional treehouse, tree tents are hung between the branches of trees, usually using sturdy straps or ropes. Tree tents are usually made of durable and waterproof materials, such as sturdy canvas or nylon. A great example of a tree tent is this glamping tent in Sweden. 

A treehouse overnight stay can range from primitive to luxurious, depending on the specific treehouse accommodation and the amenities offered. Simple treehouses usually do not have running water or bathroom facilities. Guests may have to use shared facilities or alternative options, such as a nearby campsite or natural setting. Although these treehouses are simply furnished, you do experience the unique overnight stay that you will never forget. A great example of a simple treehouse is this small treehouse in Drenthe (Netherlands). On the other hand, there are treehouses that are actually very luxurious and comfortably furnished. These may have amenities such as a fully equipped kitchen, a private bathroom, electricity, heating or air conditioning, and even modern conveniences such as Wi-Fi. Luxury treehouses are often designed with comfort in mind and offer a high level of privacy and exclusivity. For example, check out this beautiful treehouse villa. 

For safety reasons, a treehouse is often not actually attached to the trees, but is just located between the trees. These accommodations are then built on stilts. This way you experience what it is like to sleep among the tree branches without any possible danger in high winds. Most treehouses are built on these poles. For example, look at this large treehouse on stilts. 

If you're also planning to book a treehouse for a weekend getaway, for example, there are a few things you should look out for: 

Do you want to spend a special night with your child or are you looking for a treehouse with your whole family. Pay close attention to how many people are allowed in a treehouse. There are treehouses for 2 people but also treehouses for up to 8 people.

2. How luxurious is a treehouse?

Some treehouses are quite primitive and have only the basics. A lot of people find this very adventurous and fun. Other people, on the other hand, are looking for something more luxurious. Again, treehouses vary greatly. So before you book, look carefully at the facilities you can find in the treehouse.

3. Location of the treehouse

Treehouses can be found in many different places. Sometimes in the middle of a campsite or vacation park and sometimes in the middle of nature with lots of privacy. If you like to be surrounded by people or other children, you should choose a treehouse on a campsite. Do you want to enjoy nature around you? Then choose a slightly more remote treehouse.
