Remota Patagonia Lodge in Chile is a hotel's whose striking design was inspired by the traditional sheep shearing sheds of the region, bowed by the prevailing winds. It makes great use of thermal glass, which floods the interior with both light and heat, and lets you enjoy the magnificent views as you relax at the hotel.

The 72 guest rooms feature local Lenga wood, slate floors, picture windows and handwoven blankets. En-suite bathrooms have a big bathtub and luxurious rain head shower, and there's a window here too, so you can bathe with a view.

The main purpose of your stay is to spend time outside, amidst the stunning scenery which includes mountains, glaciers, lagoons, rivers and forests. You can choose your level of activity, with some requiring little effort and others needing greater exertion and fitness levels. You can go boating, kayaking, biking, horse riding, walking, hiking, bird watching and fly fishing. Excursions are in groups of no more than 8 guests and are led by a bilingual guide.

On return to the hotel you can unwind with a swim in the indoor pool, a soak in the jacuzzi, sauna or massage. There's a choice of sitting areas, all with great views over Last Hope Sound, and a bar where you can relax with a drink. The restaurant serves cuisine made from local seafood, meat and organic vegetables from nearby gardens.
