The Basque-inspired architecture of Hawn Lane makes it seem like a little slice of Spain in the heart of the Colorado countryside. You'll find it on the edge of Telluride, and its spacious selection of bedrooms can easily accommodate up to eight guests.

Thanks to miles of renowned ski runs and hiking trails, Telluride is a true paradise for lovers of the great outdoors. Staying at Hawn Lane allows you to take full advantage of the area's outstanding natural beauty and savour a few memorable meals in the town's excellent selection of restaurants. Mountain Village also lies just ten minutes away by road, offering more dining venues and direct access to some of the resort's top ski runs.

Exposed stone walls, distressed wood beams and furnishings finished in soothing tones give Hawn Lane its Spanish-inspired aesthetic. The chalet's impressive living room features high ceilings and an inviting fireplace, creating a wonderful space to relax after exploring.

Prepping meals is a pleasure in the kitchen – a space which combines rustic country-style décor with a host of modern appliances. Sit down to eat together in the grand dining room next door or enjoy your al fresco meals – the sweeping stone terrace features a built-in BBQ and a seating area with uninterrupted mountain vistas. A separate media room with sumptuous sofas to sink into and a flatscreen TV provides an ideal space for kids to hang out before bed.

Hawn Lane's ensuite bedrooms are as resplendent as any high-end hotel when slumber calls. There are four in total, including two deluxe kings, one plush queen and a twin room ideal for children or teenagers. If you need to do a spot of work during your stay, the chalet's bright and airy office is a lovely spot to tuck yourself away.

The chalet’s spa amenities are hard to resist when a pamper session in the coal-fired sauna or a long soak in the jetted tub in the master en suite awaits. There is also an outdoor hot tub if you'd rather unwind beneath the clear Colorado sky.
