Escape to California’s iconic Big Bear Lake for a dose of pine-scented peace. This dark-wood, A-frame cabin makes the perfect getaway, set in its own woodland grounds. Expect classic cabin vibes with a super-cool bohemian twist, from wooden furniture and whisky-butterscotch tones to faux-fur throws and board games. Mix a drink on the old-fashioned cocktail cart and play some tunes from the record collection. In winter, head out for a day of skiing at Big Bear Mountain Resort, just a four-minute drive from the cabin. Then come back home for a long soak in the tub followed by a relaxing evening by the wood-burning stove, which takes centre stage in the living room. In summer, enjoy a barbecue feast on the deck after hiking or fishing on the lake – you’re just ten minutes from Big Bear Lake Village where you can pick up supplies.
