Earth Water Fire Air

Here lies a truly organic, stone-walled villa, nestled into the beautiful forestry outdoors as if grown out of the earth. Huge panoramic windows throughout the house stream natural light inside, whilst also capturing the gorgeous surroundings in a number of worthy frames. Chestnut floorboards pair with exquisite stone-walls to create a rustic, cosy den and a charming, medieval-inspired dining room next to the capacious oak kitchen is perfect for groups of family or friends to come together in. Catch a flick in the media room, or huddle around the fireplace after a chilly encounter on the slopes. Stepping outside, there are dedicated alfresco dining areas, as well as viewing decks overlooking the mountainous landscape. Located in this rich Colorado country, you’ll be able to immerse yourself in nature, only a short drive from the centre of Telluride where you can catch a gondola to test your skiing skills, or wander around the idyllic town. Whatever fills your day, returning to this basque-influenced staycation, the hot tub surely calls in one of the warmest welcomes home you'll receive.
