Perfect for romantic escapes and family getaways alike, the Treehouses at Le Bois de Rosoy are magical treetop retreats that promise to transport you back to those carefree childhood holidays… with a little well-deserved luxury thrown in!

You will find the soothing forest estate amongst picture-perfect Picardy countryside, a mere hour’s drive from Paris but feeling worlds away from hectic ‘real’ life. Committed to promoting sustainable tourism, these natureful surroundings are both beautiful and cared-for, with an outdoor pool to splash around in during the summer months.

Meanwhile, each retreat is thoughtfully crafted for low-carbon comfort, with quirky design elements–and a stargazing hot tub!–that mean your holiday will be truly unique.

Choose from fourteen couples’ treehouses, each boasting its own individual style. For example, Cocoon Étoile features a downy round bed, a dining cabin on the scenic terrace, and a bathroom with a view over the woods.

Enchantée is all dreamy woodland romance with its enchanting fir-tree cabin and soft fairy lights, while the pine cone-shaped Cocoon Plume is accessed via a hanging net bridge through the trees.

If you are bringing the kids, you will have three family-sized treehouses to choose from. Le Chêne is a two-storey haven crafted entirely from wood, with fun bunk beds for the kids and a sheltered hot tub that means you can relax in warm water even when it is raining.

Le Charme is a cosy hideaway with a glass-panelled bathroom and secure steps to suit the littlest legs, while Merveilleuse is ideal for those seeking true peace and quiet, as the treehouse situated furthest from the estate hubbub.

More information

Whichever tree-treat you choose, you will be treated to a delicious breakfast basket packed with freshly baked pastries… just use the crank handle to deliver it straight to your terrace! You will also have access to separate, private toilets that flush.

Once you have settled in, it is time to explore. Take advantage of the outdoor pool, accessible from May to mid-September, explore the forest or let the kids loose in the dedicated playground as you challenge your significant other to a game of table tennis. Pétanque and Mölkky – a Finnish throwing-game that will soon become addictive! – can be played here, too.

What else? Travel just a little further afield to the Grand-Voyeux Nature Reserve and get lost in the natural world, visit fairytale castles, or glide along the shimmering Canal de l’Ourcq on a canoe or kayak. If you would rather get stuck into the delicious local produce (well, you are in France, after all), you could arrange tastings of chilled craft beer and oozy Brie de Meaux.

However you choose to while away your time at Le Bois de Rosoy, it is bound to be both magical and memorable.
