Description Rocky Skies: Breckenridge

If you close your eyes and imagine a cabin in the forest, nestled amongst sky scraping pine trees and surrounded by snow-capped mountains, it would probably look pretty similar to this mountainside home in the heart of the Rockies. Light, classic and inviting inside, it also has a lovely outdoor space that includes a deck with mountain views, a hot tub and even a hammock, making it much more than just a cosy winter abode. If you fancy a break from hiking, skiing or wildlife watching (you may well spot the odd moose or fox in the garden), you're just a ten-minute drive from the pretty village of Breckenridge which has plenty of shops, restaurants and attractions.

Home truths:
* This home doesn’t have air conditioning
* A car is desirable for properly exploring the surrounding countryside and villages
* One of the beds is a sofa bed in the common space, and, if a full house, five of the guests will be sleeping in one bedroom
