They wanted something in their garden that would marry fun with sophistication by including a special place where the grownups could simply sit and relax on a summers evening after a hectic day at work. This treehouse may be large but it\u2019s certainly not obtrusive! As with all Blue Forest treehouses, whilst designing The Hideout it was a priority for our team to take the environment into account, ensuring that the treehouse harmoniously blended in with its natural surroundings.<\/p>\n                \t<a class=\"line-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.blueforest.com\/our-process\/\" target=\"_self\">the design process<\/a>\n              <\/div>\n         <\/div>\n               <div class=\"features_container\">\n                    <div class=\"features-list\">\n            <h4>Features:<\/h4>\n                        <ul>\n                            <li>\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blueforest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/satellite-deck.png\" alt=\"Satellite Deck\" \/>\n                <span class=\"features_name\">Satellite Deck<\/span>\n              <\/li>\n                            <li>\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blueforest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/robe-bridge.png\" alt=\"Rope Bridge\" \/>\n                <span class=\"features_name\">Rope Bridge<\/span>\n              <\/li>\n                            <li>\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blueforest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/fire-pit.png\" alt=\"Fire Pit\" \/>\n                <span class=\"features_name\">Fire Pit<\/span>\n              <\/li>\n                            <li>\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blueforest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/adventure-play-equipment.png\" alt=\"Play Equipment \" \/>\n                <span class=\"features_name\">Play Equipment <\/span>\n              <\/li>\n                            <li>\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blueforest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/zipwire.png\" alt=\"Zipwire\" \/>\n                <span class=\"features_name\">Zipwire<\/span>\n              <\/li>\n                            <li>\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blueforest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/swing.png\" alt=\"Swing\" \/>\n                <span class=\"features_name\">Swing<\/span>\n              <\/li>\n                          <\/ul>\n                      <\/div>\n          \n                <\/div>\n      \n\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"images-grid-container\" id=\"image-grid\">\n    <div class=\"images-grid-wrap\">\n                  <div class=\"images-grid-item four-images-grid-wrapp\">\n              <div class=\"four-images-grid-item\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blueforest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/the-nook-grid-01.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-object-fit=\"cover\"\/>\n        <\/div>\n              <div class=\"four-images-grid-item\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blueforest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/the-nook-grid-02.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-object-fit=\"cover\"\/>\n        <\/div>\n              <div class=\"four-images-grid-item\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blueforest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/the-nook-grid-03.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-object-fit=\"cover\"\/>\n        <\/div>\n              <div class=\"four-images-grid-item\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blueforest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/the-nook-grid-04.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-object-fit=\"cover\"\/>\n        <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"images-grid-item single-image-grid\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blueforest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/the-nook-large-grid-02.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-object-fit=\"cover\"\/>\n    <\/div>\n              <div class=\"images-grid-item single-image-grid\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blueforest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/the-nook-large-grid-03.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-object-fit=\"cover\"\/>\n    <\/div>\n              <div class=\"images-grid-item single-image-grid\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blueforest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/the-nook-large-grid-01.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-object-fit=\"cover\"\/>\n    <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n\n<div id=\"the-design\" class=\"textbox-w-lefttitle leaves-bg parallaxbg\" style=\"background-color: #ebeded ; background-image: url('https:\/\/www.blueforest.com\/wp-content\/themes\/blueforest\/images\/leaves.svg');\">\n  <div class=\"wrapper twl-inner\">\n    <div class=\"twl-inner\">\n      <span class=\"h4\">the design<\/span>      <div class=\"left-content\">\n        <h2> Cosy, warm and snug&#8230;<\/h2>              <\/div>\n            <div class=\"right-content\">\n        <p>The Hideout sits at the end of the garden, just waiting to be explored and clambered over. All features have been carefully crafted and designed to create a place that kids can come back to again and again, without ever getting bored. The sheer number of decks, levels and different play features means that even the most ambitious of children couldn\u2019t possibly exhaust all of their play options in a day.<\/p>\n<p>The main play deck is linked to the tree house by a rope bridge and features a bespoke climbing rock and ground level adventure trail which leads to a treetop crow\u2019s nest, where kids can keep a lookout across the garden \u2013 this may well be a fun spot for the grown-ups to sit together and enjoy the views with a glass of wine, too.<\/p>\n<p>Balance beams, climbing walls and monkey bars \u2013 this treehouse has everything, including a zip wire to get the adrenaline flowing!<br \/>\nOnce the kids have gone to bed and it&#8217;s time to relax, the main circular decking which surrounds the sunken fire pit is the ultimate place to unwind while enjoying the evening air, even if the temperatures drop a little you\u2019ll still be kept feeling warm and snug.<\/p>\n                \t<a
