Perched above a secluded valley in the South of France, 50k from the Mediterranean, this temple-like guesthouse, open to nature's best, invites you into the heart of The Regional Park of Haut-Languedoc. Woven of red silk, black bamboo and country air, it beckons you to climb up to your most exotic dreams. This guesthouse is very private, luxurious in its refined aesthetics yet totally natural. A treehouse like no other, set in pretty gardens with open views and a pool.

The cottage is built solely with chestnut trees from the surrounding forest. The design of all of the furniture is inspired by the owner-artists numerous travels to Asia. There is a Tibetan kitchen and, suspended in the trees, a shower in a sculptured elephant head!

Though secluded and without neighbours, The Nest of the Red Dragon is wonderfully close to many attractions and activities - vineyards, 50km to the Mediterranean beaches, trails, waterfalls, traditional market, castles, festivals, biking, rock climbing and kayaking.

This is an eco friendly accommodation. There is a pool with natural water, solar electricity, solar hot water, recycled water for the WC and natural drinking water.

Breakfast is included. For other meals, the owner specializes in vegetarian world cuisine, notably Japanese, Thai and Indian.

There is a double bedroom for a couple, and another room below the terrace with separate entrance for children (over 7 if one child only; over 12 if more than one child), at £15 each. But this place is fantastically romantic, best for a couple. For families The Blue Tiger, also available through Quirky, might also be considered.
