Morning light in Hunter Three, striking down a timber-lined wall from a long skylight, with a leather bench and round table in the foreground, the bed in olive linen beyond, and the bath and firewood store along the windows to the right.

A stone bath in near-black, filling from a slim copper tap, with a knit throw and two ceramic cups on its ledge and nothing past the full-height glass but gum trees and a soft ridge line.

Split logs stacked in a recess beneath a black steel firebox with the fire going, a live-edge table close to the lens, and past them the black kitchen and an open door onto the bush.

A filled stone bath running away from the lens towards the ensuite, where a hammered basin sits on a timber shelf under a round mirror against dark green square tile.

A stone basin with a hand-worked surface set into a timber vanity, a copper tap above it, an amber soap bottle beside it, and a round black-framed mirror on the green-tiled wall.

A copper rain head on grey stone, photographed from underneath, with the walls giving way at the top to a skylight full of gum leaves and blue sky.

A timber-lined bedroom in late light, one hard diagonal of sun across the boards, the bed in olive linen below and a skylight open in the ceiling overhead.

A board of cheese and honeycomb and a single glass of rosé on a round timber table after dark, the leather bedhead and olive linen of the bed beyond.

A raked timber ceiling over matte black joinery and dark tile, with an espresso machine, local ceramics on a timber shelf, a glass-fronted wine fridge and an open door to the deck.

Two black wire chairs and a squat ceramic side table on the deck, the mesh balustrade beyond them and the sun breaking through a gum trunk.

A board of cheese and fruit on a deck side table as the sun drops through the trees behind the black balustrade, with a wire lounger pulled up alongside.

A black-clad cabin standing in the Huon Valley bush, its entry a tall timber-lined recess in the dark cladding, firewood stacked beside the door and tree ferns crowding the foreground.

The cabin from downhill, half screened by gum trees, its dark bulk and cantilevered deck standing on posts over the fern-covered Glen Huon bushland.

The most secluded of the three cabins, Hunter Three feels wonderfully tucked away amongst the landscape. With beautiful outlooks towards the Huon River, it's a peaceful hideaway designed for switching off and settling into the slower pace of life.

There is no wifi and no television, which this far into the trees is barely a decision you have to make. There is a wood fire, a deep stone bath, and a skylight above the ensuite that turns out to be the best thing in the cabin at four in the morning, with nothing but bush between you and the sky.

What is in here came from close by. The architecture is Maguire + Devine, the joinery I.D Joinery, the basins were thrown by Zsolt Faludi in Glen Huon, and the vanity is a reclaimed blackwood piece by Matt Black Furniture. Almost none of it travelled more than an hour.

It sleeps two adults, or one, which is the right number for a cabin this quiet. A queen bed with Cultiver linen, a kitchenette with a cooktop and dishwasher, a private wine collection you can buy from while you are here, and a deck of your own with the valley falling away towards the Huon River.

Getting here

45 minutes

from Hobart

15 minutes

from Huonville

Access is along a council dirt road, then a sealed driveway suitable for two wheel drives, four wheel drives and standard rental cars. The gradient is steep, so motorhomes and RVs are a genuine challenge: contact us before you arrive if you are in a larger vehicle. Go gently on the way in, and watch for wildlife around dusk. Full arrival directions arrive with your booking confirmation.
