About this house rental
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 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 quite small. 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.
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.

Lovely quiet place in a nice setting. Right on the walking tracks
4.8
What a magical place. Set amongst pine trees with the birds singing. The outdoor bath was amazing. Sitting in there looking out at nature was so relaxing. We were able to bring our dog and he loved the adventure. Clear easy to understand instructions on how to get the key. The beds were a bit uncomfortable but you cant help that. Were there for two nights. Will definitely be back.

On the doorstep of the forest, there is everything to love about this property! Huge bath tub out on the deck during a snow fall, beautiful.

We enjoyed our short stay here, it was nice and quiet with the nice walk right beside it

We really enjoyed our stay, it was cosy, well set out, back off the road so quiet and private and had lots of room for our dog to play and our wee girl enjoyed the bike's and built a stick hutt.
We really enjoyed the hot tub and the bird song.
It had everything we needed and more, we really loved staying here and would like to come back.

This property is just brilliant! Wonderfully warm. Very well equipped. I have stayed in a number of houses in Hanmer over the years, and this is by far the best. I will always stay here in the future if it is available. The hot tub is especially good. Thankyou.
4.8
Arrived late but easy to find and let myself in. Options for heating so it's very warm. Owners communicated well and the hot tub on the balcony was what made the home a bonus treat to stay and enjoy. Very relaxing to enjoy the quiet in the hot tub and soak in the surroundings. And I could have my little Cachon stay with me too.
Cheers.

It’s a private space with all the amenities you may need. The house is clean, dry and cozy.
There are just a couple of things to improve:
1. The TV in the dining room requires some attention, we couldn’t run it
2. The house rules and self-cleaning service could be a bit more explicit
However, this the best you can get for the price. The host is very helpful and communicative. My friends and I enjoyed our stay very much and I would choose to stay here again without thinking twice.

Lovely peaceful spot. Enloyed the walks and the birdsong. Cozy home.
4.8
Awesome little place for a wee get away!
Just one suggestion would be to have some newspaper or fire starters available as we didn’t have any so had to keep the fire constantly running. Also maybe a cover or a net to help get some of the leaves out of the tub.
Overall had an awesome time (:

A quiet spot with a great hot tub that is still handy to the town.
4.8
great...but price is getting a bit costly for me
4.8
It was a lovely spot. Hadn't really done our research to understand that towels/sheets etc were at an extra cost, however we had bought our own so all worked out OK.
4.8
Such a nice house and nice and private, has smart tvs so you can relax at night time has heaps of cool outdoor toys for little ones super handy having a washing machine and dryer you can use.

Description of property is exactly as stated on Bookabach site. Great communication with Jacinta who was more than accommodating to ensure our stay was all that we had hoped for. Well appointed layout with everything needed in kitchen/laundry etc. Terrific hot tub which we utilised at night albeit quite cold - the night sky made up for that. Excellent heating with both a heat pump and log burner. Good supply of firewood kept dry under the house. Forest walk is accessible at the back of the section which was awesome. I can see how this would appeal to families with small children; heaps of running around space and some playground toys. Beautiful larch and conifers surround the property adding to it's magic :)
4.8
What a fabulous property. Close to town, immediate access to lovely walks. Awesome property with everything you'd need to entertain all age groups. Great water pressure and gas hot water! Will definitely book this accommodation again!

Loved the place. Secluded, away from the other houses. Nice and warm. Everything you need. The tub was so good. Will definitely stay again.

A nice rustic place to stay with walking tracks at the backdoor.
4.8
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!
4.8
Alpine feel.
If stayed again would bring own linen. Found washing and towels and bed linen from 2 beds stressful before leaving in am (and wonder how many people honestly do it .??)
4.8
We had a great couple nights here. Plenty of room for 5 adults and a baby. The house is tidy and warm with everything you need to relax and enjoy the scenery.

We enjoyed the tree house with it's isolated surrounds and peaceful environment, close to walking tracks. Inside, we had everything we needed. Wished we could have stayed longer.

Very pleasant stay. Quiet and secluded with Majuba and woodland walks so close.

Unfortunately there was a power cut in the Hanmer area but didn't affect our stay.
