Earlier this year, Jenny\u2019s five year journey to complete the construction of six treehouses in their beautiful woodland came to fruition. And they\u2019re absolutely phenomenal&#8230; but don\u2019t take our word for it; just ask her first guests.<\/p>\n<p>The 17 acres of woodland, which was formerly the site of a sand and gravel pit, has been left untouched for the thick end of a hundred years and has since naturally rewilded.<\/p>\n<p>Jenny is a former B&amp;B\u2008owner and has also developed property, but for a number of years she\u2019s had the dream to create some really unique accommodation within the woodland for those who wanted to step back into nature and unwind.<\/p>\n<p>Five years ago Jenny began to research how to create a successful treehouse site, and also oversaw the clearing of the woodland around the large lake on the site. In 2019, working alongside builder Christian Lomas, she began construction of her six bespoke treehouses.<\/p>\n<p>Though her work stalled a little thanks to the omnipresent Covid, Jenny persevered, and work was completed on four of the site\u2019s treehouses in May 2021 with the final couple finished a month or two later.\u00a0That was just in time for the first few guests and already people are clamouring to stay in the comfortable, cosy and absolutely delightful accommodation she\u2019s created.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome guests come to explore our quaint Woodhall Spa and the surrounding area and some guests just relax, unwind and enjoy the peace and tranquillity of their treehouse and location\u201d says Jenny.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWoodhall Spa village is steeped in history, with lots to explore. You can enjoy the many beautiful walks and cycle tracks in the area, the Dambusters history, the Kinema in the Woods and so very much more. I feel it\u2019s so important to take time to step away from the hectic pace of life and enjoy peace and quiet and just reconnect with nature again, whether it\u2019s watching the abundance of wildlife from your decking, gently rowing your boat on the lake, strolling around the woodland enjoying the beauty of nature, reading books in hammocks, or cooking marshmallows on the fire pit, and bathing under the stars from your outdoor bathtub.\u00a0 It\u2019s time to pause and reset!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One of the challenges in creating Jenny\u2019s Treetop Hideaways was achieving the fine balance between an authentic, natural experience whilst also ensuring luxury and comfort. And it\u2019s the successful judgement of this balance which has ensured the treehouses have been executed so well.<\/p>\n<p>Comfort hasn\u2019t been compromised, nor has practicality. Self-contained, there\u2019s plenty of space, for a start, plus well-equipped kitchens and bathrooms.<\/p>\n<p>In the kitchen, there\u2019s an oven, extractor, sink and fridge\/freezer, plus a bistro table for dining. In the bathroom there are rainfall showers, twin stone vanity basins&#8230; and a fully flushing toilet! And of course, there\u2019s heating throughout the treehouse, too.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile there are really comfortable king-sized beds with high quality linens and a log burner with a \u2018starter pack\u2019 of logs and eco-friendly firelighters, plus panoramic decking with views over the lake at each of the treehouses. Happily, each of the treehouses have been sited in such a way that none of them overlook one another, which makes enjoying a hot bubble bath outside, in your own bathtub on the veranda, an enjoyable, warm and private fresh air experience.<\/p>\n<p>The idea of the place in general, says Jenny, was that guests would feel completely ensconced in woodland, and Jenny has definitely achieved that by making each treehouse completely private and ensuring each one nestles into its surroundings.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of enjoying the great outdoors, each treehouse comes with a firepit and grill for al fresco cooking, a hammock or two complete with faux fur blankets to snuggle under. Reading under the woodland canopy with just the rustle of nature in the background is, we feel, an ideal way to spend your time, at any time of the year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe accept bookings all year round and they they\u2019re proving popular in all seasons,\u201d says Jenny. \u201cWe do have some availability over Christmas and New Year, and in early 2022, and we\u2019re really pleased to see that guests are enjoying the treehouse experience in the autumn andwinter months too, because genuinely the treehouses are really cosy. The log burner can also be lit to give that extra glow of warmth, in addition to the heating which is there already. We saw the treehouses with a coating of snow, whilst we were in the building process and they looked magical!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve really enjoyed welcoming some local visitors to stay, some from as near as Woodhall Spa itself! You don\u2019t have to spend a day of your precious holiday time travelling, but you can still feel like you have escaped the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJudging by bookings and expressions of interest so far, our bookings are made up of three quarters of our guests from outside Lincolnshire, and a quarter, at least, are \u2018local. It\u2019s so lovely to meet guests from all over the UK, near and far.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, we\u2019re creating experiences with partners\u00a0 that will appeal to guests. If you are looking to simply relax and unwind you can prebook some wellbeing treatments like massage, reflexology, Thai Yoga etc, in the privacy and comfort of your own treehouse, as we\u2019ve partnered with a local therapist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve also teaming up with a private chef, so if you would like to stay in but would prefer not to cook, you can have a meal cooked for you in your treehouse, or a freshly prepared meal delivered to you, ready for you to pop in the oven and cook at your leisure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jenny wanted to create somewhere unique, and that\u2019s why she\u2019s designed and constructed her treehouses to be completely bespoke.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a phenomenal site, comfortable, but also a really authentic experience. If you\u2019re after a silent night \u2013 whether at Christmas or any other time of the year \u2013 this is an experience you won\u2019t find anywhere else, given the ecology and naturality of its truly amazing setting.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Treetop Hideaways is a group of six bespoke treehouses for hire from \u00a3209\/night, two nights minimum stay.
