What is a Cocoon Tent Tree House?
It is a treehouse you can take down and move, which solves the main flaw of treehouses. The sphere hangs from a tree or sits on stand-alone feet, so it works in a forest, on a beach or in a garden with no tree at all.
How do you get inside?
Apparently an easy-to-climb net set up around it does the job. Once in, the lighting gives the inside a warm glow, and a double bed fills the floor.
Is it worth the money?
Ten and a half thousand euros is a lot for a tent, but you can use it repeatedly and move it, unlike a hotel night. We once featured hotels that go for over $20,000 a night, so for a rich camper this is on the modest side. Check the maker’s site, www.CocoonTree.com, for current models, a larger gallery and installation details. The site shows a 2022 copyright date, so confirm they are still taking orders.
Would you buy one, or would it end up in the storage room with all the other things you thought were great? Tell us in the comments below.
