IF YOU GO DOWN TO THE WOODS TODAY, you’re sure of a big surprise. Just opened in the remote pine forests of Avelengo in northern Italy’s Sudtirol are the chalets and treehouses of the San Luis Hotel. Each has been built with their surroundings in mind, with wood-heavy interiors and floor-to-ceiling windows that serve to bring the outside in. Beyond the terrace decks, miles of walking and cycling paths await in the mountains (suite from £115; sanluis-hotel.com.)
