Tiny Ikigai

Summary:
Just 40 mins from Melbourne, yet a world apart. Relax in the outdoor bath amidst rolling green hills and natures birdsong. Pure bliss awaits.

Tiny Ikigai sleeps up to four with a queen bed in the window and a double bed in the loft. There is also a reverse-cycle air-conditioner and heating unit. Tiny Aura is suitable for a two-wheel drive.

Drive just over 40-minutes north of Melbourne to the picturesque town of Whittlesea where Tiny Ikigai awaits, cradled amidst undulating hills and breathtaking mountain vistas.

Tiny Ikigai beckons you to surrender to the serenade of nature’s symphony, a sanctuary where time slows, and hearts connect. Find solace under the shade of ancient trees, sway gently in a hammock with a cherished novel, or indulge in the luxury of an outdoor bath.

Expect to leave this tiny home feeling fully replenished.

Great cabin and area, would definitely visit again. Quite a bit of garbage from some kind of abandoned factory nearby, but not on the actual property. Hot days can be rough for pets and small children.
