Cabin Anna, Maashorst nature reserve, the Netherlands

The Holenberg forest is the gateway to the Maashorst nature reserve, a rewilding pioneer in North Brabant, home to roaming bison and Tauros – a project to revive the aurochs, an ancient European ox. Tucked away in the forest, among a rusty palette of trees, heather and wetlands, sits off-grid and self-sufficient Cabin Anna. From the linen to the recycled waste-product tableware, the emphasis is on reducing your environmental impact. The cabin sleeps two and has a vast glass atrium for enjoying the natural surroundings in all weathers, and a sunken bathtub. There are safaris, cycling and hikes on the doorstep.

Magdas Hotel, Vienna

In Vienna’s Prater Park, home to the famous ferris wheel, Magdas Hotel has an enviable green location in one of Europe’s greenest cities. It’s run by a combination of socially minded hoteliers and immigrants or former refugees, all on a mission to promote inclusivity, and create a meeting place of 16 nations and 20 languages. It achieves that in bucketloads. Artwork from the local college, upcycled vintage furniture and local wine and beer served on the secluded terrace add to the welcoming atmosphere. Those arriving by train or bike receive a 10% discount.
