Inside the cabin
You’ll enjoy a comfortable stay in a spacious and cosy king bed. The cabin features a high-quality compact kitchen with all the cooking equipment and appliances you’d expect at home, along with a bathroom that includes a hot shower and a standard flushing toilet.
There’s a beautiful, light-filled dining and lounge area framed by nature, plus air-conditioning for both heating and cooling. The dark interior and 360-degree glass walls are designed to fully immerse you in the surrounding landscape.
Running on solar power and rainwater, the cabin is completely off-grid — making your stay a little kinder to the environment.
Unwind on the front deck as you watch nature pass by, or relax in the hot tub and take in the sunset as it drifts across the valley floor.
Architect's Note
“The Treehouse sits sensitively and serenely within the landscape. Generous open-plan living spaces offer panoramic views, while the thoughtful use of screening and textiles ensures privacy is maintained. All the design elements combine to create a luxurious, off-grid, gently glowing cabin. As the outside world shifts and changes, so too does the space inside — deepening your connection to the elements and the surrounding wilderness.” — Madeleine Blanchfield

Outside the cabin
The land and bush surrounding the cabin are yours to enjoy on your own. From rambles along country roads of pristine wilderness to wandering into Wollombi Village, or watching wildlife from the large covered deck, adventures in nature await. Wollombi Village is only 5mins away by car.
Our cabins are in Wollombi, a historic village in the Lower Hunter, just 1 hour 45mins from Sydney. Once an important Aboriginal meeting place and a major junction on the convict trail, Wollombi now moves at a much slower pace, with charming family run cafes and restaurants, a country pub, local vineyards and historic 19th- century buildings.
Wollombi Village is a lovely 55min walk away or 5mins by car, where the locals will share their favourite hidden treasures, or discover a local Aboriginal Cultural Guide Walk through the Yengo National Park or visit a local winery. Laguna Village and the vineyards in the beautiful valley of Broke and the main Hunter Valley are also close by.
Or, simply do nothing but enjoy the views from your hill top perch looking down over the valley from the wood-fired hot tub.
Madeleine Blanchfield and her studio of architects create spaces that capture the contemporary Australian lifestyle by emphasising the cohesion between interior and exterior worlds, balancing reverence for the natural landscape, quality of spaces and the personal elements that make each house a home.

Guests with Children Huch cabins are placed on plots of land where water such as streams, lakes and ponds may be present. Huch also provides wood fired hot tubs at its cabin locations. Guests are completely responsible for their own safety and the safety of their children and for having good swimming skills (e.g. do not enter water or try to swim if you are not an experienced swimmer). The NSW Swimming Pools Regulation 2018 requires spa pools and hot tubs to be covered with a child resistant structure such as a lid or cover. We provide hot tub covers with each hot tub.Guests must therefore have the hot tub cover fitted securely at all times during their stay when not using the hot tub, if they have children under 10. Please note NSW regulations also require parents to provide constant supervision of children around water to prevent accidents. You must ensure that young children are always within arm's reach and never left unattended. Huch is not liable for guests and their children's bodily injury (including death) due to different types of water settings and bodies including the hot tub. By booking a Huch cabin, guests recognise and accept this responsibility and affirm they have these general skills and will comply with Huch's booking terms and conditions. In summary:Children under 5 are not permitted to use the hot tub.
Adults must supervise children at all times when they are around an uncovered or open hot tub or any water body.
Parents must keep the hot tub covered fitted securely when not in use if they have children under 10 Snakes are also more present from October to March and tend to stay around streams and Billabongs looking for frogs and other food. Please do not enter these waterways or tall grassed areas.

Don’t forget to fill up your car with petrol before you leave the City.
