Treehouse Hideaway, England<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The stunning Treehouse Hideaway in Kent, England is even more impressive when you discover the fact that it was built almost entirely from driftwood and recycled building scraps \u2013 in just seven months!<\/p>\n<p>Owner Chris Whalley constructed the treehouse himself, which sits 20 feet above ground in a red cedar and is furnished with a large plasma TV, a log burner and a kitchenette. And if that weren\u2019t enough, there\u2019s a Jacuzzi at the base of the tree as well!<\/p>\n<p>The treehouse \u2013 the tallest habitable structure of its kind in Britain \u2013 cost about $95,000 to build. And to back up its luxury credentials, it was awarded a five-star rating by TripAdvisor and has received reservations from as far away as Australia.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-43224 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.businesspundit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/2.-Xinlani-Retreat-Mexico.jpg\" alt=\"2.
