The Woodsman’s Treehouse

Description

High among Dorset’s ancient oaks, The Woodsman’s Treehouse is a sanctuary in the treetops, where nature whispers through every carefully crafted detail. Designed with care and respect for the woodland, this retreat invites you to slow down, embrace simplicity, and rediscover the joy of being fully present.

Built by Guy Mallinson and his team of skilled artisans, this award-winning hideaway balances rustic charm with modern comfort. Elevated above the forest floor, it celebrates sustainability and craftsmanship, blending seamlessly with its surroundings.

Here, life takes on a gentler rhythm—a warm fire crackles, leaves rustle in the breeze, and the scent of wood smoke lingers in the air.


Why You’ll Love It

Every detail of The Woodsman’s Treehouse is designed to immerse you in a world of comfort and creativity:

  • A Treetop Spa: Unwind in the copper hot tub or refresh in the open-air tree shower, surrounded by the sounds of nature.
  • Playful Whimsy: A slide adds a childlike delight to your treetop adventure, whisking you back down to earth with a smile.
  • A Cosy Woodland Retreat: A rotating log burner keeps the heart of the treehouse warm, whether you’re lounging in a leather armchair or relaxing in the bespoke king-sized bed.
  • Thoughtful Design: The copper bathtub is perfectly placed for soaking while gazing out at the trees, and large picture windows bring the beauty of the forest indoors.
  • Al Fresco Dining: Cook up something special in the wood-fired pizza oven or BBQ, then savour your meal as twilight settles over the forest.

From the handcrafted furniture to the gentle glow of the firepit, this treehouse is a celebration of slow, intentional living.


Step Inside

Behind the scorched oak door, you’ll find an enchanting circular living space, where every element feels rooted in the forest’s beauty:

  • The Living Space: A cosy sanctuary with natural wood tones, a central rotating stove, and picture windows that frame the woodland like a painting.
  • The Kitchen: Fully equipped and ready to inspire, with everything you need for slow, delicious meals, including a Nespresso machine for coffee-filled mornings.
  • The Bedroom: A bespoke king-sized bed, complete with crisp linens and a skylight for stargazing.
  • The Bathroom: A rainfall shower, flushing loo, and stunning copper bath offer a touch of indulgence, reminding you that even the smallest details can feel restorative.

Every corner of this treetop escape is designed to soothe, inspire, and delight.


Your Private Decks

The outdoor spaces at The Woodsman’s Treehouse are just as inviting as the interiors:

  • Rooftop Spa Deck: Soak in the hot tub or relax in the wood-fired sauna as the trees sway gently around you.
  • Main Deck: Cook, dine, and linger with a pizza oven, BBQ, and hammock made for unhurried afternoons.
  • Open-Air Tree Shower: Refresh beneath the sky, letting the forest become part of your daily ritual.
  • The Slide: A playful touch that lets you reconnect with your inner child while gliding back to the forest floor.

Here, life slows to match the rhythms of the woodland—a place to breathe deeply, laugh freely, and savour every moment.


Explore the Area

While The Woodsman’s Treehouse feels like a world of its own, it’s perfectly placed for discovering Dorset’s treasures:

  • Wander the tranquil gardens of Forde Abbey or explore the dramatic coastline of the Jurassic Coast.
  • Hunt for fossils at Charmouth Beach or meander through nearby villages with a stop at a welcoming pub.
  • Sample the farm-to-table delights of River Cottage or sip something local at Furleigh Estate.

Or simply stay put—wander the woodland paths, watch the light filter through the leaves, and let the simplicity of the moment become your greatest adventure.


Who Will Love It

Perfect for couples seeking a romantic, slow-paced escape, The Woodsman’s Treehouse is a place to reconnect—with nature, with each other, and with the quiet joys of life. Whether you’re soaking in the hot tub, swinging in the hammock, or cosying up by the fire, this treetop retreat feels like your very own sanctuary in the sky.

If your dates are unavailable, its siblings—Dazzle Treehouse and Pinwheel Treehouse—offer equally enchanting escapes.
