Cosy spacious Chalet Experience. Beautiful views.

This three level home is great for large family groups. It has a wonderful open plan lounge and dining area with a modern spacious kitchen for those family dinners. The lounge has large windows that allow you views over the Hanmer village which is beautiful when the snow is falling and across to the hills with the sunlight providing ever changing vistas. Sit comfortably by the log fire while you watch Sky TV with sports and movie channels or a DVD for those movie nights to keep the kids entertained.
This home has an outside seating area to sit around and have a few drinks. Relax while cooking the BBQ on those hot sunny summer nights with great indoor outdoor flow from the kitchen and dinning room, providing ease of catering.
This property is situated in an area of natural beauty. Tracks which cater for the gentle stroll to a good work out, a gentle bike ride to mountain biking on the numerous forest tracks, swimming, shopping, golf, skiing and eating out. If you get a chance, check out the beautiful Clarence River Valley over Jacks Pass. .

Great spacious house with lovely view

This cosy spacious house has everything you need for a great weekend. Great views and great location, clean and comfortable beds. Biggest disadvantage is that there was no coffee plunger (or at least we did not find one).

Disappointing

Location of property was good.I don’t normally complain about properties we stay in but this one was shocking.Cleanliness was disgusting.Oven trays in oven hadn’t been cleaned from last guests, mouse poo in kitchen cupboard. A loaf of bread in store cupboard was mouldy from previous guests. Frypans were disgusting rust and Teflon coming off.BBQ not cleaned. Mouldy windows all downstairs. Items were left in the fridge an insulin pen.Whoever cleans this house should not have a job there it has made me wonder if a cleaner actually cleaned it from the last guests.Will not stay there again.

Mens weekend away

Very good. We all settled in quite well (eight of us). Very comfortable. the Kitchen could do with a bowl. I had to make pancakes mix in a pot. Not a big deal, otherwise very good experience.

Pleasant and enjoyment with one little hiccup.

The property is located in a prime spot with a view, close to town and is very nice on the inside. The only thing wrong was we had was no hot water for the first night but the property manager called someone in straight away to fix it. Turns out the hot water cylinder got turned off by accident. Overall we really enjoyed our stayed and would gladly come back.

Poppas 80th! A great venue for a family , very warm, cosy, and lovely views.

perfect for large groups and we could see it could sleep up to 16 people. Needs better signage. Both the caterer and our group struggled to find 28! Would recommend to others.
