Lavender Lodge - Cosy family retreat, short stroll to town

Welcome to Lavender Lodge, a warm and character-filled timber home nestled just a short stroll from the heart of Hanmer Springs. Surrounded by flowering gardens, fruit trees, and peaceful mountain views, this is a place where you can slow down, breathe deeply, and truly unwind.

From the moment you arrive, the natural wooden interiors and cosy alpine atmosphere create an immediate sense of comfort. This is not just a stay—it’s a relaxed, home-away-from-home escape designed for families, friends, and small groups looking to enjoy everything Hanmer Springs has to offer.

A Thoughtful Layout for Families & Groups

Lavender Lodge comfortably sleeps up to 8 guests across two levels, offering both shared spaces and private retreats.

Upstairs, you’ll find a cosy loft-style area designed especially with families in mind. This space includes two single beds and trundle beds, making it ideal for up to four guests. It’s a warm and playful retreat for children or a relaxed sleeping area for a small family group. You’ll also find books and toys provided, creating a comfortable and welcoming space for younger guests to enjoy.

Downstairs, the home features two beautifully appointed bedrooms. The master bedroom offers a super king bed that can be split into two super singles if needed, providing excellent flexibility for different group setups. The second bedroom includes a comfortable queen bed, perfect for couples or additional guests. Each room is designed with simplicity and comfort in mind, ensuring a restful night’s sleep after a day of exploring.

Indoor Comfort Meets Outdoor Beauty

The home is filled with natural timber finishes that give it a warm, relaxed, and uniquely cosy feel. Large windows allow natural light to flow through the space, enhancing the calm and inviting atmosphere.

Outside, Lavender Lodge is surrounded by a beautiful garden setting. Lavender plants, seasonal flowers, and fruit trees create a peaceful outdoor space where you can enjoy your morning coffee, unwind in the afternoon sun, or simply take in the fresh alpine air. The garden changes gently with the seasons, making every stay feel a little different.

Unbeatable Location in Hanmer Springs

One of Lavender Lodge’s best features is its incredible location. You are just a short 3-minute walk from Hanmer Springs town centre, where you’ll find cafés, restaurants, boutique shops, and everything you need during your stay.

Your Cosy Alpine Escape

Lavender Lodge offers the perfect balance of comfort, charm, and convenience. Whether you’re soaking in the hot pools, exploring the village, or simply enjoying a quiet moment in the garden, this is a place where memories are made slowly and naturally.
