HighTree Chalets features a hot tub, as well as air-conditioned accommodation in Peebles. This property offers access to a balcony and free private parking. The luxury tent provides lake views and an outdoor fireplace. Where to begin! We absolutely loved everything about the high tree chalets, the hosts have very clearly thought about every little aspect and detail and tailored this to be not just a stay but an experience. My partner and I visited for our honeymoon and were wanting to relax, unwind, slow down, and spend intentional time together and the high tree chalets were exactly what we were needing. We were able to slow down and really take in the beauty of everything! We loved the attention to detail, the location and the hosts Sonya, Mark and Casey truely went above and beyond!

Motel rooms include a kitchenette with portable cooktops, pans, a microwave and refrigerator, a wall-heater and a flat-screen TV. Some rooms boast a private spa bath. Bed linen, towels and tea/coffee making facilities are provided. We checked in late and our room was left open for us with key inside... too easy. The cabin is very new and well appointed... very comfy. The kitchen and bbq area is so well done - so easy to use and super spacious. Best i've seen and others there were saying the same.

Hanmer Glamping in Hanmer Springs provides adults-only accommodation with a garden and barbecue facilities. There is a private entrance at the luxury tent for the convenience of those who stay. The luxury tent also features free WiFi, free private parking and facilities for disabled guests. Amazing! I literally have no words – this place blew my mind. Steve and Joanna are so warm and genuine, and you can see their love in every single detail of the setup. It’s like they thought of everything before I even knew I wanted it. The hot tub under the stars was unforgettable, the sunrise soak was just as amazing, and the morning coffee was perfect. Truly a 10/10 stay.
