Love the Love Nest
This was the second time we've stayed there. It's so cosy and private - and with the fire in the winter, very, very cosy. It's also very well equipped with everything you need.

Hanmer springs cabin
Overal a lovely cabin. Well presented and a lot of love. Only thing. The cabin is quite close proximity to other cabins and not as private as expected. But a lovely job. Really nice people. Great service. Quality furnishings.
