We just love our "Thyme Cottage" named so, as the owners are often time poor themselves. It offers you a great wee place to stay and relax. Somewhere you can stay that is so peaceful you can really chill out and get back some time for yourself and family or friends you are staying with. The cottage was renovated in October 2009 for you to enjoy and we will keep working on it as time goes by. It also won Best Hanmer Holiday Home category in 2010. The owners have tried to think of everything to provide in their wee home including games, toys, DVD's and puzzles for the kids. SKY TV including Movies and Sports channels and unlimited Wi-Fi are provided too. There is also a portacot, high chair and a baby bath. The kitchen is very well equipped, coffee machine, slow cooker, plenty of pots, pans, cutlery, cups and wine glasses... etc.. (hopefully you won't need anything else while you are here). While the home sleeps four in beds, there a fold out couch in the lounge that can be utilised as well. The property is located next door to a reserve, so the kids can go next door and climb trees. The section is flat, so no tricky steep roads or driveways to deal with and there is a lockable garden shed with room to store bikes in it. It is also located very close to the Hanmer Springs Golf Course and approximately 8-10 minute walk from the pools and the lovely township of Hanmer. " What a comfortable little home. The children loved the toys and mum and dad enjoyed the peace and quiet. Nana loved the fireside heater, our nights were great" " Really enjoyed staying in your lovely cottage, appreciated the small details which make it homely." " Loved the reserve beside the house, kids got a good run around before tea." " Thanks for the lovely place. It is a sanctuary, a heaven on earth. A place to rest, heal the soul and feed the mind." Small well well-behaved dogs only are welcome at this property and don't forget to clean up after your pet before you leave.

Hanmer Springs is a lovely small village set in an alpine environment on the edge of the Southern Alps in the South Island of New Zealand. The village is located at an altitude of approximately 400 metres (1300 feet). This provides a crisp clear climate, with snow falling during winter on several occasions. The geothermal nature of the area has provided the beautiful Thermal Springs Reserve in which to relax, and it is second to none other in New Zealand. The combination of the colder climate and the thermal pools normally sitting at 25-42 degrees Celsius, or 77-18 degrees Fahrenheit is both invigorating and relaxing. The lucky guests get to soak in the thermal pools when it is snowing (for no extra charge) - how lucky are they?
