Did we mention that the master bedroom has a floor to ceiling window? It’s perfect for watching the sunrise over the mountain while sipping on your morning coffee. Pure bliss 😍

One thing we love about the location of Sno Ruapehu is that there are plenty of fun places to head for a day trip! If you can tear yourself away from staring at the mountain from the cabin deck, then we suggest a little roadie to Whanganui. If you love good food, boutique tipples and perusing art galleries, then Whanganui is a destination you will love ❤️ Our suggestions are burgers by the beach at The Citadel in Castlecliff along with a visit to Ivan Vostinar gallery across the road (dare you to walk out without buying one of his gorgeous handmade mugs 😜), some beer tasting at (best NZ made Hazy IPA in our opinion 🍺) as well as trying some of the delicious liqueurs and vodkas from which are on the same premises. After visiting some more galleries in town and perhaps taking a little riverboat cruise on the Whanganui river, be sure to stop in at for some amazing gins ( our favourites are the Mountains to Sea and Orchard 👌🏼). Finish off your day with a relaxing soak in the hot tub back at the cabin. A perfect day out! ✨
