This holiday home in Hanmer Springs is the perfect place to relax in the thermal pools, check out boutique shops and restaurants, bike and walk or run the numerous trails or get amongst the thrill-seeking activities. The Hanmer Tree House sits on 0.6450 ha in a unique location, surrounded by forest reserve. This property has the space to picnic under trees on the grass or to let the kids and pets run free! It is dog fenced on one side and borders forestry reserve on the others. There is a large grassy area with a fenced off section (10m by 5m) for people wanting somewhere secure for an unattended dog - this area also has trees for shade. It is super quiet and private yet only a 10 minute stroll into the centre of town.
There is an awesome stainless/cedar outdoor bath on the deck, with views to the mountains and the amazing night sky. The house also has a loft area with a single mattress that kids love to play in. While it sleeps 6, it is best suited to a maximum of 5 adults as there are only 2 bedrooms and the living area is modest. If you need room for more please check out the "Apple Tree Cabin" listing on bookabach - this is a wee cabin on wheels next door to the main house that can be booked separately - it is self contained with a queen-sized bed, ensuite and kitchenette and it's own outdoor bath. This can be added to your booking for $100 a night - just flick us a message if you'd like to add it.
There are awesome walking and mountain biking tracks just over the fence (we have one adult mountain bike and some kids' bikes that you are free to use). There are board games, a plastic toddler playground and a hammock.
