We all dream of a secret hideaway at times. Somewhere to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life, a place to curl up and dream. The ethos behind Huts, Havens and Hideaways is just that - sanctuaries. From beach huts beside the sea to treehouses at the bottom of a garden. Desert airstreams to converted railway carriages. All these are encapsulated within the four elements of water, air, fire and earth, each person having their own particular affinity with one of these primal instincts. Jo Denbury brings these dreams to life with this, her first book, accompanied by photographer Chris Tubbs. The enticing photographs are complemented by the inspirational text of Ali Watkinson, all sowing the seeds of fantasies that could one day become true. Whether your dream hideaway is a wooden summerhouse surrounded by flowers and decorated with faded chintz or a cosy, stove-heated converted railway carriage on the edge of a Scottish hillside, you will find inspiration within these pages. Ideas abound to transpose to your own home or to light the fires of your imagination, fantasising what could - will - one day be your own private nirvana. - Lucy Watson
