Lanna Hill House is an exclusive luxury rental villa located on the edge of a national park only 35 minutes from Chiang Mai Airport. The colonial style residence is perfect for families and friends looking for an exclusive holiday destination in Chiang Mai. Affording stunning views of a lake and Chiang Mai’s forested mountains , the luxury rental villa is available to rent with a full range of personalized services and facilities normally associated with an exclusive boutique hotel.

Lanna Hill House was designed by one of Thailand’s top architects and commissioned by an Englishman and his wife, to reflect the best of both local (Lanna) and colonial design. The result is a beautiful house constructed from only the finest materials, including reclaimed teak throughout. The house is furnished exquisitely with teak, rattan and bamboo furniture that reflects the best of both colonial and Thai design.

Perched on a hill overlooking forested mountains, a reservoir and the Mae On valley, the location is blessed with a pleasant climate (up to 7 degrees cooler than central Chiang Mai) and a scattering of small villages untouched by tourism.

The house overlooks the 1,800m summit of  Doi Mon Larn which also plays host to the famous village of  Mae Kampong, a mere 30 minute drive away. The national parks of Takrai and Chae Son are located on the doorstep.

The owners, Richard & Nuntasorn Rhodes, eco resort owners, teamed up with award winning restaurateur and theatre director, David Gordon, to transform the beautiful house into a fully serviced villa, offering the best of Thai service, cuisine and a suite of activities that will ensure a unique and authentic experience of Thailand. Friends and family often commented on how Thailand was transformed into a magical place when experienced with somebody with genuine local knowledge and a passion for the country. The Lanna Hill House concept is to give people that same experience.

Set in a remote mountainous area, the exclusive rental villa is near a golf course and many natural tourist attractions for which Chiang Mai, in Northern Thailand, is famed.  Suitable for family vacations, golf holidays, romantic honeymoons, corporate retreats or simply getting away from it all and relaxing in a luxurious colonial style villa surrounded by jungle and the natural beauty of Chiang Mai, Thailand.  

The colonial villa is luxurious and beautifully decorated and comes with all modern conveniences expected of an exclusive and professional resort.

Accommodation

The house incorporates the best of colonial design and only the finest materials, equipping it perfectly to blend with the semi-tropical environment. The floor area covers 750 sqm.

The communal areas include living room, play room, great room, library, guest bathroom, kitchen and the 'crow's nest' (perched high in the roof to afford the best views of the lake and mountains. This room can also be used as a bedroom).

Of course in the semi-tropics you will want to maximise outdoor time. There are 9 covered terraces in total, a courtyard, 2 acres of gardens, a traditional sala (ideal for yoga and fitness) and of course a pool with decked surround.

The house is furnished to a very high standard. All the floors are made from teak, as are the doors and shutters (over 300 hinged units in total!). See our services section for additional details.
