SLOW STAYS

Nestled on a 150-acre working cattle farm on the edge of the Wingello State Forest, Wildernest Tiny is like a little piece of primeval paradise. Ticking all the boxes when it comes to sustainability, each element of this tiny home has been carefully considered from the 100% tree-free toilet paper to the locally-sourced provisions. A mere 1.5 – 2 hour drive from both Canberra and Sydney will bring you to the warm clutches of the Southern Highlands countryside where you’ll enjoy the company of wombats and wallabies while you wind down in the surrounding bushland. From mountain biking to forest bathing, there’s plenty to keep you busy during the day. When night falls, enjoy the starlit sky as you camp out by the fire-pit, laze on the indoor daybed, or treat yourself to a meal in one of the local villages. As well as all the essentials – hot shower, heating and flushing loo – there are five-star touches, too. Enjoy French linen sheets, organic house-made soaps, freshly ground coffee, organic teas, marshmallows for toasting and a mini library.
