Acheron House: Cosy chalet, breathtaking views, pets welcome!

Acheron House is a sunny, pet- and family-friendly retreat nestled in Hanmer Springs. Enjoy stunning views of Mount Isobel and an easy walk to Conical Hill and the village. This spacious 3-bedroom home features a log fire, two living spaces with smart TVs, and an open-plan layout leading to a wrap-around balcony. The secure, fully-fenced, pet-friendly garden includes a kennel under the deck. Perfect for relaxing or exploring, Acheron House is your ideal alpine getaway.

Short but sweet stay

It was our first time staying at Hanmer Springs and Daniel's home was the perfect spot to roost. It was near the walking trails and a short drive or a very nice leisurely long walk into town. We loved the fireplace and the views. Overall, it was a cozy, comfortable stay. Thank you for sharing your home!
