Unlike The Whitehouse in Washington DC, this sleek monochromatic retreat takes you away from all of society by immersing you in its 360-degree views of unspoiled natural surroundings. Solar panels allow this off grid house to not disrupt its ecosystem's harmony whilst providing you with enough electricity to run a fridge, light each room and charge your phone. An outdoor fire pit and hot tub will keep you feeling cosy as you stargaze over the 1,050 hectares of open land.

The 100-year-old converted stone church is situated near Drakensberg, a UNESCO heritage site, known for natural landscapes and rock paintings tracing back to the San people. Lodgings for guests have been made in the main chapel and annexe with stained glass windows, stone alcoves and majestic furnishings completing the church’s historic charm.

ALPACA DOME

Treat yourself to an unforgettable experience in a magical semi-transparent dome hidden within an alpaca farm in the French forest. This home away from home has thought of everything with bathrobes, a double hammock and even a Nespresso machine. Made out of a cotton canvas, the dome stays cool and provides areas of sanctuary whilst transparent sections let nature flow into its inviting space. If you’re lucky, one of its alpacas, donkeys, sheep, or many other farm animals might walk right up to your breakfast spot.

Villa Akasha pays homage to geometry and its ability to produce healing effects through the process of biomimicry. Bamboo has been shaped to create a 35 metre squared bio-architecture dome with an implosive electrical field, encouraging positivity and health in its environment. Its bungalow-style ambience is complete with rattan furniture, an outdoor shower, plenty of natural light and views of rice paddies. A vegan and vegetarian restaurant with a swimming pool is just next door providing you with all the essentials for a rejuvenating trip.
