Tiny Away, the tiny house company that’s all about experiencing nature in comfort, has opened the doors to its first Queensland tiny house.

Tiny Away Kookaburra Cabin is tucked in the Sunshine Coast hinterland near the small rural town of Palmwoods.

The tiny house opens onto lawns and forest that backdrop the 17-acre property, far from the hustle and bustle of city life.

Set in the heart of an arts and craft hub which typifies the region, the house is also close to the south-eastern gateway to the Kondalilla National Park.

“Tiny Away allows guests to immerse themselves in nature while enjoying comfortable accommodation,” co-founder of Tiny Away Jeff Yeo said.

“It’s all about leaving the worries of the daily grind behind and really connecting with the natural surrounds.

“This new property will offer our guests exactly that, and a chance to explore more amazing regions across Australia.”

Tiny Away allows guests to immerse themselves in nature while enjoying comfortable accommodation.

Boasting a range of stunning designs and state-of-the-art features 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.

Tiny Away has more than 75 unique short-stay tiny house accommodation options across Australia.

The compact homes on wheels are made with sustainable materials.

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.

Founded in 2018, the Tiny Away network includes a range of comfy, eco-friendly ‘tiny houses’ for travellers seeking alternative and unique accommodation experiences.

Using a profit sharing arrangement that sees landowners earning up to 45% of rental revenue, Tiny Away considers itself a partner with landowner hosts on a mission to create rare and exceptional accommodation experiences.

Tiny Away offers adventurous road-trippers and weekenders the chance to immerse themselves in Australia’s vast flora and fauna, without compromising on comfort.

A step up from glamping, each tiny house offers hot showers, air conditioning, a cosy queen bed, and a kitchenette.

The sustainably built tiny houses are typically positioned on a working farm, often totally off-grid, and hosts offer all sorts of unique activities (horse riding, farm experiences, etc.) that give guests a taste of rural life.
