The perfect tiny house on 5 acres of light bushland with easy access to a small beach adjacent to reefs with rock oysters, mussels, and rock fishing. Or take a short walk to Mark's Point Conservation Reserve, which is home to a diverse range of bird life and wildlife, including wallabies, quals, and echidna.

Perfect for outdoor water activities and exciting adventures for you to explore!

The Space:
The Banyula is the perfect family staycation for vacationers with a queen-sized bed up in the loft and a couch, which can be converted into a single bed on the ground floor. It is a comfortable stay of approx 155 square feet and has easy access to water, split air conditioning, a kitchenette, cooking equipment, and excellent bathroom facilities.

The bathroom follows ecologically sustainable principles, including a flushed toilet, hand basin, and shower (gas heated for hot showers). It focuses on satisfying people's needs with natural resources and processes to save the environment.

If you plan to spend your weekend getaways here, we advise that you bring your basic necessities such as food and water during your stay with us. Thank you!

IMPORTANT NOTE: For your convenience, the toilet and wastewater are pumped to a septic system, so please ensure only toilet paper supplied is flushed into the toilet. If other waste, such as tampons or pads, is flushed, the pump and disposal lines will become clogged. We ask guests to please dispose of this waste in the garbage cans provided.

Guest Access:

Tiny House Escape
Gorgeous secluded spot with a private bay, wallabies hopping past, tiny house was so cute. We cooked dinner on the campfire and shared a drink with our host. Lovely place to unwind and relax after enjoying all that Bruny Island has to offer.

Lovely situation, but we didn't know how difficult it would be to find supplies (food etc) on Bruny. Also the Tiny house: actually very comfortable, but you need to be very tidy inside. Also tiny houses are a bit challenging for an 80-ish couple!

Lost my money
As a mature-aged single woman, I was looking for small, well presented accommodation for two nights. Unfortunately, this property is owned and marketed by a “Tiny Homes” company that is clearly trying to expand its footprint and using short stay accommodation as leverage. I didn’t google “entrepreneural business models” - I clearly stated what I was looking for. My thoughts? In short - great location, and great “land host” - the person whose property the Tiny House is located on. But the property? Really really disappointing. No TV. Yes, I get that it’s about the location - but tell me this beforehand. As a solo traveller without a heads-up, I didn’t even take a book. No coffee, no basic cooking stuff - I I took food but wasnt able to cook it. The wall heater. Even with the blades directed at their lowest point, the air was directed at the loft bed. The sitting/lounge area was freezing and the loft/bed area stifling. The steep loft stairs were evident in the marketing - no problem. But take note - the mattress is on the floor and you need to crawl to bed. I can’t crawl on my knees - this was a deal-breaker for me. I have communicated with both the “land host “ and the Tiny House Owner prior to posting this feedback. The target market is a fit single/couple looking for a glamping experience. If you don’t fit this profile - consider other options.
