As lockdown eases and travelling abroad feels like less of a distant dream, we’re still a touch tentative about rushing straight back to our usual buffet breakfasts and crowded hostel rooms.
Staying in your very own bubble might be the perfect mid-point between life in lockdown and our old holidaying ways.
Handy then, that in Iceland this is a possibility.
A secluded retreat allows guests to stay in their very own glass bubble, tucked away in the remote wooded area of a forest near Reykholt, in southern Iceland.
As well as keeping you separated from other holidaygoers, a stay in the bubble means you’re able to look at the amazing night sky from your bed.
You might even get to see the aurora borealis – the northern lights – if you’re really lucky.
Robert Robertson, the managing director of the Bubble project based in Reykjavík, Iceland, said: ‘Some childhood dreams stay with us for our whole lives.
‘Sleeping under the stars or watching the aurora borealis dance is one of those lifelong dreams. To fulfil these dreams the Bubble concept was born.
‘In the winter we have the aurora or the stars, but in the summer you are going to be in the proximity to nature, wonderful birds, butterflies and great midnight-sun scenery.
‘Forget the city, forget work and enjoy watching the aurora borealis dance for you.
‘We can of course not guarantee you will see the lights, but if they show up you will have a magical night.’
FYI, if you like the idea of a bubble but aren’t too keen on the cold, there are similar bubble tents over in Australia, too.
