It was built at a height of more than 5 meters above the ground
Who hasn’t dreamed as a child of living in a tree house? In American movies all children had their own tree house, a playful retreat where they shared ideas with their little friends or “devilish” plans away from adult eyes. In Italy it was less common to see these constructions on private property; we made do with plastic tents in the garden or living room. The flashlight was placed under the chin and at night we enjoyed telling chilling stories. Good times no doubt…
Now, however, it is possible to experience the thrill of sleeping in a tree house just a few kilometers from Milan, about 36. The Relais Tenuta il Cigno has a tree house on a centuries-old oak tree, made entirely of wood.
From the balcony you can admire romantic sunsets, perhaps soaking in the warm outdoor hot tub. The house is equipped with a bathroom with shower, mini-bar, heating for winter, dehumidified air for summer, and an innovative mosquito repellent system.
Among the paid services to be booked is access to the facility’s spa. The price per night for the treehouse is from €350.
Activities to do in the surrounding area
On the estate you can relax in the spa, enjoy the outdoor pool, stay in elegant rooms and enjoy local cuisine, as well as attend events or weddings surrounded by nature. The estate offers western riding lessons and horseback riding activities, perfect for beginners and enthusiasts alike, thanks to the historic stable and collaboration with ASD Martù.
South Milan Agricultural Park
A few kilometers from the estate is the South Milan Agricultural Park, where you can take nature walks, visit farms, discover fountains, nature reserves and participate in rural events and markets.
