Hunter Two from the bath end: a copper tap over dark stone, the wood fire and black kitchen in the middle distance, the bed and a leather bench to the right, and glass along the whole left wall opening to the Huon Valley.

Water running from a copper tap into a deep stone bath drawn up against a wall of glass, a folded knit throw and a pair of ceramic cups within reach on the ledge, and hazy bush filling the view outside.

A live-edge timber table in the foreground, a wood fire alight in a black steel firebox behind it above a neat recess of split log ends, and the dark kitchen further back with the deck door standing open.

The full length of the room in one view: a filled stone bath in the foreground, and at the far end an ensuite of dark green square tile with a round mirror over a hammered basin on a timber shelf.

Close on the vanity: a rough-textured stone basin, a copper tap and one amber soap bottle on timber, under a round black-framed mirror against glossy dark green tile.

Looking straight up in the shower, past a copper rain head and grey stone walls, to an open skylight with a gum tree and clear blue sky above it.

The bed dressed in olive linen with layered pillows, a skylight cut into the ceiling directly above it, and late sun laid across the timber-lined wall in a hard diagonal.

Evening in the room: a round timber table holding a glass of rosé and a board of cheese and honeycomb, with the leather bedhead and olive-linen bed directly behind it.

Matte black kitchen joinery and dark tile beneath a raked timber ceiling, an espresso machine and a shelf of ceramics along the bench, a glass-fronted wine fridge below, and the deck door open at the left.

A pair of black wire chairs either side of a low ceramic table on the timber deck, with sun flaring through a gum trunk over the mesh balustrade.

Sunset from the deck: cheese and fruit set out on a side table, a wire lounger to the right, and the sun going down through the trees past the black balustrade.

The cabin's black exterior seen from the Glen Huon bush, with a tall timber-lined recess cut into the side for the entry, split firewood stacked next to it and tree ferns close to the lens.

Looking up through the gum trees at the cabin, its dark form and cantilevered deck carried on posts above a slope thick with Tasmanian tree ferns.

Beautifully positioned in the heart of the property, Hunter Two offers one of the most captivating views on site, best enjoyed from the comfort of bed. Wake slowly and let the valley be the first thing you see.

No wifi, and no television. The room is arranged around the window instead: a wood fire you can watch without getting up, a deep stone bath, and a skylight cut over the ensuite that turns out to be the best thing in the cabin at four in the morning.

The people who made this one live nearby. Maguire + Devine are the architects, I.D Joinery did the joinery, the basins were thrown by Zsolt Faludi in Glen Huon, and the vanity is reclaimed blackwood by Matt Black Furniture. Very little of it travelled more than an hour to get here.

Two adults, or one. The queen bed is made up in Cultiver linen and faces the valley, and behind it sit a kitchenette with a cooktop and dishwasher, a private wine collection you are welcome to buy from during your stay, and a deck of your own for the part of the day you do get up.

Getting here

45 minutes

from Hobart

15 minutes

from Huonville

You come in off a council dirt road onto a sealed driveway, which two wheel drives, four wheel drives and standard rental cars all manage. It is a steep one, so motorhomes and RVs can struggle: get in touch before your stay if you are travelling in something larger and we will talk you through it. Drive it slowly, especially at dusk when the wildlife is about. Your booking confirmation carries the full arrival directions.
