KALMYNSI TREEHOUSE

All is calm at Kalmynsi Treehouse, as you’d expect from a treehouse named after the Cornish word for ‘calm’. Hand-built from the finest cedar and rooted into the earth as naturally as if it had grown on its own, Kalmynsi is a beautiful, quiet space. Here, two of you (and your pet pooch) can hunker down by the log burner, with the vintage record player turning, enjoying some deep R&R.

Inside

Like its sister space Skapya, Kalmynsi’s serene interior arcs gently from one end to the other, in a long curved design that is unique to Kosel Treehouses.

There’s an open-plan sleek kitchen fitted with a black Neff induction hob and a combi oven for you to cook up a romantic feast. And an intimate Scandi-inspired living space made super-cosy with a Graham and Green two-seater sofa and armchair, as well as a Big Bertha beanbag. There’s also an Ekol log burner with integrated oven and hot plate to cook on (logs, matches and kindling are provided), Bluetooth LP player, and Smart TV with superfast broadband and Wifi.

When bedtime calls, slip into the separate double bedroom with king sized bed at the end of the treehouse and allow yourself to be encased in the naturally soft linen sheets from the Chalk and Pink Linen Company. In the morning, wake up with the birds on your own private balcony then head to the separate shower room and awaken your senses with the organic toiletries. The shower room is complete with a drenching rainforest shower, heated towel rail, WC and basin.

Outside

Kalmynsi Treehouse is set 30 metres away from Skapya Treehouse on a gentle hillside hidden from view amongst ash, beech and oak trees. The treehouse is also bordered by our 3-acre field, some of which we have recently planted to create a new woodland, which you are free to explore.

Partially sunken into the hillside is an outdoor lounging area surrounded by mature hedging. Here you will be greeted with a handmade Japanese design deep soak hot tub, chiminea and seating area reserved just for you.

Head outdoors, light the chiminea, pour yourself a glass of wine and watch the sunset over the distant hills whilst you soak in the warm hot tub and listen to the owls calling from the nearby ancient bluebell wood.

Like Skapya, there is no difficult terrain to trudge through to get to Kalmynsi Treehouse. Simply park in the private offroad car park and follow the gravel path 30 metres to its door. A short elevated wooden walkway takes you up to Kalmynsi’s small porch with a Tilley Lamp lantern, welly store and glass-fronted door. Turn the key to its glass-fronted entrance, step inside and close the door on the real world.

A welcome hamper provided on arrival includes: milk, Clipper tea, locally roasted Coffee and other treats plus a full bottle of Prosecco to help you settle in.

★★★★★

We absolutely loved this place. It has been beautifully designed and fitted with a lot of attention to detail. Comfortable bed and well fitted kitchen. We enjoyed playing some old records on the record player and using the hot tub which worked really well – the garden was a delight to spend time in as well as the small balcony.

★★★★★

We stayed in Kalmynsi and couldn’t fault it. Madeleine is so helpful and so much thought has gone into the treehouses. Everything we needed was there, even a full ice cube tray! Can’t recommend more and we will definitely stay again. Thank you so much we had the best time.

★★★★★

Our stay at Kalmynsi was perfect from start to finish. It is a beautifully laid out space, set in an idyllic woodland offering the perfect spot to bird watch and unwind. The facilities were brilliant (although I never mastered working the oven!) and we had everything we needed for our two week stay. I don’t think either of us have ever slept so well – it was so quiet and calm. Thank you so much Maddie and Patrick for allowing us to experience this tranquillity.
