If you love travelling and like to try new things, it may be that you have already heard of the phenomena known as ‘bubble hotels’. You may have heard of the famous one at Allauch in France, called the Attrap’Reves or the 5 Million Star Hotel in Iceland where you can sleep under the Northern Lights.
What if we told you that you didn’t have to go that far afield to try out one of the newest trends in accommodation? A new and different experience like the Finn Lough Bubble Domes.
Bubble Domes? What Are They Exactly?
Bubble Domes are very self-explanatory. They are transparent, spherical structures with 180 degree walls situated in Aghnablaney in a 50 acre forest. Looks can be deceiving though, as you may think they are simplistic and minimalist, however on the inside they make good use of the available space to provide amenities and features you’d expect from a cabin-style property.
These include:
• Luxurious four-poster bed
• Comfortable chairs
• En-suite bathroom
• Electric shower
• Nespresso coffee machine
• Soft robes to wear during your stay
• Wooden flooring
• Stylish lighting
• Complimentary breakfast every morning
However, it differs from other cabin-style options, because when you wake up in the morning and have your first cup of coffee or settle down in bed at night, there is no obstruction to the stunning vistas you have of the sun rising or the sunset and glimmering stars appearing in the sky.
The idea is that your bubble that protects you from the outside elements without removing you completely from them – allowing you to feel not just beside the beautiful surroundings but almost part of it. It gives you a full 360 degree view of lush greens and blues. Imagine, staying in one of these amazing little bubbles and the rain starts. If you had been staying in a tent, the adverse weather conditions would put a real dampener on your time away. From the dome though, you can just sit or lie back and listen to the rain tap on the outside, as you stay completely dry on the inside.
If stargazing is one of your passions in life, then these bubble domes are especially great choices for a getaway. As there are no bright and distracting lights around, you can drink in the beauty of the night sky in all its glory.
