Simply..get away from it all?

20/2/2014

Maybe your dreams are more of sunny tropical islands, but I loved these remote cabins from a huge collection of photographs at http://cabinporn.com/

Which would you choose?

I can imagine myself staying for a month of writing in that first one, and I was lucky enough to spend Midsummer in a smaller version of the one above in Dalarna, the traditional heart of Sweden in a meadow just like this. It was magical. And romantic..

Thanks Julia for the link - you do find some lovely things!

I have been cocooned (though not in snow alas) as I've been too unwell for a bit to go out much, but yes, dreaming, resting, reading a lot - it hasn't all been bad. Editing some, but not much!

The last picture does it for me - I don't want to be cocooned in snow I want to be outdoors and free in a field full of wild flowers with the sun warm on my skin.

Although I don't feel dissatisfied or particularly envious, I have missed having ANY snow here this year, so a snowy cabin looks very appealing ;)
Summer cabins look lovely too but I do like to be at our little Brittany house on the coast in warm weather because there are practically no beasties that sting LOL hate those!!

I know what you mean about missing snow. Your house on the coast sounds lovely (you wouldn't like the Scottish midgies!).

The cabin in the mountains without the snow looks appealing but my favourite is the last one too. It reminds me of a cabin we used to stay in Denmark which was next to an orchard and beside the water. Sarah x
