A home away from the world. Huts on the shore of the lake in karelia in winter

Schengen

The forest is always mysterious and slightly alluring with its depth. And a house in the forest is a place that seems very cozy, safe and hidden to a person. That is probably why photographers are so fond of creating a whole story out of such a landscape, slightly similar to a fairy tale. In this article, 16 houses in the forest are collected for you, which look completely different and have their own mood. Which one is right for you?

An abandoned old 18th century cottage with a large stone fireplace... such a place evokes sad but warm nostalgic thoughts about abandoned villages. A small mountain spring flowing near the house, perhaps in the old days was suitable for supplying water to those who lived in it. Looking at old houses, you always wonder - what did those people find in this place? Why did they stay here and equip it? Was it their destiny or just a necessity?

The next house is still used today as a small forester's lodge. It is especially interesting because it is located in a mountainous area with a large elevation difference. In addition, trees with stunning crowns grow along the slope. Than a heavenly place in order to have a good rest in nature and read your favorite classics?

This English house has long been abandoned, and the heavenly yellow coloring of all the vegetation on it is partly the work of the designer. But not only it - the beauty of this place is clear even without the use of paints. Even in black and white, this landscape would look amazing.

Our tour of the houses has a certain retro character, since most of them are abandoned and not used for a long time. But this does not mean at all that there is no magical beauty left in these places.

Other houses fit so well into the surrounding landscape that they do not look like a place for a hectic life. Rather, people with an old, natural way of life live here. Or they stick to it when they use the house for summer living.

A special mood in the forest is rain, thunderstorm or cloudy night. Then the whole world ceases to be what it is. For this we appreciate nature, constantly leaving for our dacha. It changes our view of the world to a more positive and poetic one. After all, nature is a real miracle, distracting us from worries and giving us strength.

Charming old mill near the bridge is very picturesque place. Many people still live in the local village, and they grow geese swimming here. Throughout Europe there are many such old water mills, now no longer needed by anyone.

But this article is not about the fact that the time of some things is running out. And about the fact that every house, even the old one, has its own charm. And with due desire to breathe new life can be in absolutely any place.

For example, this house in the photo above with a traditional roof made of natural material is also very old, but it is looked after and looks truly magical. Here, for sure, you can shoot scenes for films or print calendars with this photo.

The other house is new construction, but in the manner of the classical buildings in the area. An excellent evidence that there are people who honor and wish to revive the best traditions of their native land.

Tropical jungle bungalows are also part of our forest bungalow category. The presence of the pool only decorates them, and the abundant vegetation makes the exterior more interesting.

Many also try to build modern cottages in the forest in order to be able to have a good rest after work in the bosom of nature.

Little huts for rent new year holidays beautiful because they were built according to old traditions and have a retro aesthetic.

Some houses in the forest climb higher - on the trees themselves, creating spectacular structures.

Others are located on the slopes of forested mountains and have stunning views of the countryside.

But most importantly, each of them is only a consequence of the fact that a person has chosen a beautiful natural place for life. And what stands on it - a hut, a summer house, a cottage or a mansion - is much less important. Basically, we are drawn to a natural lifestyle, while trying to stay in our comfort zone. The main thing is not to forget that we are at the dacha precisely because of nature and its beauty, and our business is, first of all, to honor and respect it.
