For seasoned travellers, luxury is about unique access, seclusion and transformation. These five retreats offer something traditional hotels cannot: a sense of peace, purpose and profound connection.
The Treehouses at Lanrick, Scotland
For those who are familiar with the Bentley Extraordinary Journeys driving programs, this Highland escape will be a familiar sight. Hidden within a private Scottish woodland, The Treehouses at Lanrick combine luxury and seclusion in a setting designed around the tranquillity of nature. Elevated among the treetops, each hand-crafted hideaway features spacious interiors with cosy wood-burning stoves, elegant furnishings and large, open decks that sprawl onto sweeping woodland views.
Twin Farms, America
Set on 300 acres of meadows and woodlands in the storybook state of Vermont, Twin Farms is an intimate, adults-only retreat that blends classic American charm with world-class luxury. Once the country escape of author Sinclair Lewis, the estate has evolved into a collection of unique cottages, suites, farmhouses and treehouses, each individually designed with eclectic art, antiques and distinctive character that makes every stay memorable.
Mallinson’s woodland retreat, England
Nestled in a tranquil Dorset woodland, Mallinson’s Woodland Retreat offers one-of-a-kind treehouses and hand-crafted hideaways that combine playful design with indulgent comfort. Each creation is an architectural work of art; whether it’s the spiralling tower of Dazzle, the rustic charm of Woodman’s Treehouse or the elegant curves of Pinwheel, each space is breathtaking. Elevated above the forest floor, these award-winning hideaways feature wood-burning stoves, outdoor hot tubs and elegant interiors crafted from natural materials.
Whitepod Eco-Luxury Hotel, Switzerland
Perched high in the Swiss Alps, Whitepod redefines mountain luxury with its striking geodesic domes. Set on a secluded slope above the city of Monthey, the resort blends eco-conscious design with extraordinary panoramic alpine views. Each pod is individually styled and comes complete with king-sized beds, wood-burning stoves and private terraces that open onto sweeping mountain vistas you’d be hard-pressed to find elsewhere.
Victoria Falls River Lodge, Zimbabwe
Set along the serene banks of the mighty Zambezi River, Victoria Falls River Lodge offers a luxurious, immersive safari experience in the heart of Zimbabwe. Each elegant chalet is designed for comfort and privacy, as spacious interiors, private decks and uninterrupted views of the river combine to make magic. Guests can start the day with a sunrise canoe trip, embark on guided game drives, or explore nearby cultural villages. Evenings are spent dining under the stars, enjoying local cuisine and unwinding to the gentle sounds of the flowing river.
