Tiny Away, the tiny house company that’s all about experiencing nature in comfort, has opened the doors to its first Tasmanian tiny houses, growing its network of rural getaways.
The ‘Quirindi’ tiny house is located in the quiet fishing village of Dunalley, just 45 minutes from Hobart, and the ‘Cottesloe’ tiny house is set in the beautiful town of Hagley, not too far from Launceston.
“We are so excited to finally set our wheels in Tasmania. With fantastic scenery, beautiful beaches, a huge wilderness to explore, and delicious food and wine, Tasmania has so much to offer visitors, whether from the mainland or a Tassie local looking to explore their own backyard,” says Jeff Yeo, co-founder of Tiny Away.
Boasting a range of stunning designs and state-of-the-art features both inside and outside, these impressively self-sufficient “compact homes on wheels” are made with sustainable materials and include waterless compost toilets, rainwater collections tanks for showers, and solar panels.
Quirindi, Dunalley
Set on an 8-acre property that has been in the family for three generations, Quirindi is the perfect private retreat surrounded by bush and grassland with abundant wildlife to keep you company.
Dunalley where you can find some of the best fishing spots and stunning bay-side sceneries in Tasmania. The area’s landmark Eaglehawk Neck is a stunning rocky coast home to some of Australia’s highest marine cliffs, caves, and chasms.
Foodies and wine lovers are spoiled for choice, the nearby The Cannery serving some of the best seafood in the region and the award-winning Bangor Wine & Oyster Shed produces premium Tasmanian wines matched with delicious local oysters.
Cottesloe, Hagley
Cottesloe sits in the small town of Hagley where you can be at home with nature surrounded by stunning scenic views, but close to art, museums, and outdoor activities to explore.
The house is set in amongst a small farming operation and is backdropped by perennial green pastures, fresh air, and plenty of farm animals to make for a perfect backcountry stay.
Just 20 minutes away, the quaint streets of Deloraine are lined with Georgian and Victorian buildings and make for a charming morning or afternoon stroll. The town’s excellent bakeries and cafes are also popular local hotspots.
Farm experiences in the area include award-winning salmon, honey, raspberries and cheese, and the flora and fauna of Tasmania’s world-famous national parks including the limestone caves of Mole Creek Karst National Park. The nearby Western Tiers Distillery is a state-of-the-art distillery that produces premium spirits in the region.
Tiny Away now has over 120 unique short-stay tiny house accommodation options across Australia. Its tiny architecturally designed houses are set on private land in rural and regional locations and are designed to get visitors out of the city and into the outdoors.
“Tiny Away allows guests to immerse themselves in nature while enjoying comfortable accommodation. It’s all about leaving the worries of the daily grind behind and connecting with the natural surroundings. This new property will offer our guests exactly that, and a chance to explore more amazing regions across Australia,” added Yeo.
