Cozy & peaceful tiny house by the sea!

We had such a wonderful stay at Hamish & Ronene’s tiny house. Such a cozy, peaceful and warm refuge during the wintertime. We enjoyed falling asleep to the sound of the ocean, watching the sunrise from the loft bed (super comfy!) and relaxing on the couch with the sun streaming through the window. The tiny house is in an unreal location - a short walk down to both Sumner and Taylor’s Mistake on beautiful trails. Hamish & Ronene are so lovely and went above and beyond to make us feel at home. Highly recommend!

Enjoyed our Stay

We loved our stay in the little house. Even though compact, the house was well equipped for a short stay, the bed in the loft very comfortable, and the shower was lovely and hot. Hamish is a kind and accommodating host, responsive to any need. We enjoyed our walk along the cliffs, too, and visit to town.

Great place for us

Hamish was friendly, helpful and a gracious host. We appreciated the suggestion of dinner option at a local fish and chips place where we ended up eating both nights we were there, delicious.The gardens were beautiful and the tiny house was exactly as we pictured it. The views from the bedroom window could not be better, one of the best sunrises we have ever seen.

Fantastic wee home, close to awesome cafes & walks & beaches. So neat. Mattress a little firm for my liking but that is only a personal preference as opposed to a negative comment. Well appointed & just fun! Hamish was lovely. Their home/property beautiful. Definitely recommend for a fun getaway👍
