About this property

Hanmer Tree House - unique location on forest edge

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! (Please note that it is not fully fenced). You are welcome to pop a tent up in the summer. It is 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 or sleep in. While it sleeps 7, it is best suited to a maximum of 5 adults as there are only 2 bedrooms and the living area is quite small. 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.
Special conditions:
Smoking allowed outside only
Pets are most welcome but please keep outside of house unless you can promise no damage to internal furnishings and no dog hair left behind. There is a medium sized dog kennel (no run).
Loft not recommended for pre-schoolers due to the height.
House must be left as found - ie, guests are expected to clean and tidy on departure.
NO PARTIES - Zero tolerance for parties, any wilful damage from parties will result in Police involvement and potential charges.

Extras: Linen (included); NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Clean the house and do the dishes before you leave (ie, leave it as you found it); You will also need to wash and dry the linen used before your 11 am departure (washing machine, powder and dryer provided). Alternatively you can pay byo linen/sleeping bags or pay extra to hire linen which will be dropped off and collected so that you don't need to wash and dry it.

Just perfect for a relaxing overnight
We were only staying for a night while travelling through, but the house had everything we wanted. The outdoor tub was lovely, and the fireplace (with loads of supplied wood) made the place cozy and warm.

Peaceful Tree house retreat!
We come back to this property many times for many reasons. The house is walkable to town, yet secluded in trees and right next to a walking track. Its beautiful and rustic on the inside, but the best part is the outdoor bath on the deck. You can sit and listen to the birds. Great for kids of all ages!

What makes this property unique

Backs onto the Majuba walkway and a stone's throw to mountain bike tracks. Our guests love the tub on the deck and the location - nestled among the trees and quiet with no neighbours - away from the hustle and bustle of the township - yet only a couple of mins by car into the shops.
