We had a fabulous stay at Claire’s home in Hanmer Springs. It was very private, quiet and had great views into the forest. The bed and pillows were comfy as was the furniture. The kitchen was well stocked for in home dining. It was easy 15 minute walk into town. 4 Square provided for all our grocery needs for our 2 week stay. Several great restaurants and cafes. Lots of tramping close by and close enough to the east coast that we did 2 day trips - the views from atop Mt. Isobel were outstanding! We highly recommend this spot and will come again if ever in the area.
