The Space:
Garden Grove by Tiny Away is located in the Fraser Coast Region, about an hour’s drive from Bundaberg through Childers. The closest city with more holiday homes is Hervey Bay, known for great whale watching and safe, family-friendly beaches.
Nearby, Dundowran Beach offers beautiful sunrises, while Torquay Beach is perfect for surfing. Urangan Pier is just 41 minutes away and is popular for fishing and enjoying the views. You can enjoy all this while staying in our cozy holiday homes.
A cozy 139-square-foot tiny home with easy access to water, split air conditioning, a kitchenette, cooking equipment, and excellent bathroom facilities. These amenities include an eco-friendly cassette toilet with a removable waste-holding tank, hand basin, and gas-heated shower.
IMPORTANT NOTE: This is a working farm stay, so you may hear some normal suburban noise during your stay. We do our best to keep it quiet, but some noise may still happen. We’re sorry in advance if it causes any inconvenience.
For safety reasons, we advise guests the retreat is “not suitable for children” due to several unfenced dams on the land.
