Beautiful area
Guests love this home’s scenic location.
This tiny house, the Nook, is nestled under oak trees. A perfect stay during the local wedding season, or when you just want to get out and explore.
Styled with a rustic touch and wabi-sabi principles, the Nook is equipped with a queen bed and kitchenette facilities, including a bbq, and even an outdoor bath! This amazing place is here to enjoy a stress-free environment - just sit, have a glass of wine, & relax while enjoying the rural vistas from the veranda.
The space
Fancy sleeping in a winery on the edge of a forest?
Part of the Lazy Ballerina in South Australia, this Eco Pod sits on the brink of the Kuitpo Forest in Dingabledinga. Including three gazetted Native Forest Reserves covering 469 hectares, the surrounding land embodies a rich variety of trees, shrubs and ground cover species that provide significant habitat for Australian native birds, reptiles and mammals. Styled with a rustic feel made with wabi-sabi (less-is-more) principles.
Soak in the outdoor bathtub, hang out on the veranda, or sit by the fire (when not a fireban Dec-March) and enjoy.
On weekends if you’re feeling social, enjoy the winery’s cellar door, where you can join other guests in the garden or share a wood-fired pizza and drop of red.

Review:
"Tiny home getaway! If you’re realistic about the limitations of a tiny home stay then this is awesome. You can either relax and bring your own entertainment, or use the place as a starting point for exploring Kuitpo/McLaren Vale/Willunga Beautiful aesthetic/vibe and peace free from interruption."

Other things to note
The realities of a tiny home in the country…
This is a sustainably designed tiny home. It is designed to run on a trickle of solar electricity so it won’t run your hair drier. It will run the fridge, charge all your devices, run the TV and other conveniences installed.
Vodaphone and Optus have poor phone coverage. Telstra, and networks that uses their towers (Aldi Mobile) have full coverage. There is WiFi 24/7.
Sometimes you can hear the road nearby… although not enough to disturb you.
