More About Your Luxury Treehouse Stay at Vivianna
A super deluxe, eco-friendly treehouse in a fairy-tale setting offering a magically, romantic and idyllic experience in the heart of rural England.
Designed and built by Award-Winning John and Nicki Beavan, Vivianna has been built using traditional methods and recycled, local materials. Nicki is a designer and John is a Christies and Sotheby’s listed cabinet maker; both have a reputation for innovative, sustainable design and superb quality.
Vivianna has been built slowly and carefully around the trunk of a majestic, living ash tree. The crown of the tree emerges through the thatched roof – branching out into a magnificent canopy over the treehouse.
On one side, the treehouse is supported by stilts. Elevated high above the ground, you have the feeling of being way up in in the tree.
Stepping inside the treehouse is like stepping into a fairytale. Vivainna’s large, arch-shaped entrance door swings open to reveal a huge living space – dominated, in the centre, by the striking trunk of the ash tree rising through the floor and disappearing out through the ceiling high above.
Sumptuous and opulent, light and airy, the living area, undeniably, has the wow factor – a beautiful circular space with multiple hand carved arched sash windows and a gleaming oak floor. Two huge circular sofas, with stunning, comfy cushions, face a flickering, log-effect fire, and in the dining area, there's a beautiful table, hand crafted from a nearby fallen tree trunk and topped with curved glass.
Atmospheric lighting is provided by LED candles and vases of fairy lights, soft throws and blankets are on hand for snuggling up. With toasty underfloor heating throughout Vivianna is a perfect retreat throughout the seasons.
One of the most striking aspects of this space (apart from the majestic tree growing up through the middle) is the bespoke kitchen. The cabinets flow around the space – with no hard corners or sharp edges. It has been designed with a reflective base, so that the units appear to float above the floor – adding to the magical atmosphere of the treehouse.
The curved cabinets contain a round sink, with hidden drawers and cupboards, that, glide smoothly and silently open when pushed gently.
A filtered water tap dispenses, pure, cold drinking water as well as boiling water for making tea and coffee in an instant.
The Welcome Pack is overflowing with mouth-watering local produce, including artisan chocolates, tasty crackers, a delicious slate cheese board, Worcestershire honey, marmalade and eggs. A selection of drinks includes local apple juice, milk, Traditional English Breakfast tea, a selection of herbal teas, three types of ground coffee, instant coffee, and hot chocolate.
Vivianna has a beautifully decorated, spacious king-sized bedroom with a soft curved external wall housing several arched sash windows and a door to the elevated balcony, all giving glorious views across the lake and to the countryside beyond. Relax at the balcony bistro set, pick up a book or enjoy an abundance of wildlife in front of you. Binoculars are provided, keep an eye out for the heron – a regular visitor amongst other feathered friends
Robes, slippers, enormous fluffy towels, and lovely handmade bio facial soaps are provided.
A smart, luxurious, modern bathroom completes the accommodation. This features twin glass sinks with waterfall taps, and a beautifully spacious walk-in rainfall shower.
Vivianna is as magical outside as it is inside. At night the treehouse is lit up and glows with golden light against dark starry skies. Snuggle up to your partner and touch the stars with your toes from the comfort of your hand carved Lover’s Swing.
Four acres of glorious countryside, woods, pools, wildflower meadows and wildlife are on the doorstep. Little stone bridges and steppingstones lead to pretty, winding paths that beckon... Watch the buzzards wheeling overhead. Catch a glimpse of roe deer or kingfishers .Treeopia's pasture is rich in biodiversity - a great habitat for bees and butterflies.
A few steps from the treehouse is a covered, bubbling hot tub with nighttime lighting, and fire pit waiting to crackle or sizzle. Comfortable fire-side seats have been carefully carved to enjoy the stunning view and a lakeside picnic table provides a perfect spot for morning coffee or al fresco dining.
An enchanting, tumbling waterfall creates a continuous, soothing sound – mingled with glorious birdsong and owls hooting at dusk.
Treeopia is blessed with vast, clear skies – with no light pollution, the view of the stars is outstanding. Gaze up at Orion and The Plough twinkling through the branches.
