Tiny Nanook - Kanimbla Valley

Summary:
Welcome to Tiny Nanook! Set in the picturesque Kanimbla Valley, the ultimate tiny house NSW retreat offers stunning views of the Blue Mountains escarpments, and surrounding countryside, and is just 2 hours from Sydney.

Relax on your tiny deck while enjoying the evening light and seeing kangaroos hopping around the property. Occasionally, wombats, echidnas, and possums may roam any time of the day. On a clear night, you can see the Milky Way and during the day, you can head down to Cox’s River.

The Space:
Tiny Nanook is nestled amongst the gum trees in a private location, nestled amongst stunning scenery, overlooking Marsden Rock and our neighbour's vineyard. The perfect Blue Mountains accommodation, 2 hours from Sydney, features soaring sandstone ridges covered in native bushland, scenic views, and bushwalking trails. Among the nearby attractions in the area are Jenolan Caves, Mayfield Gardens, and Mt Victoria.

The tiny house offers guests a comfortable stay and compact space with plenty of windows that invite the outside in. It's a cozy 170-square-foot tiny home with easy access to water, a well-equipped kitchenette, and split-airconditioning to keep cool in summer, and warm in the winter. There is a double-sized bed up in the loft and a couch on the ground floor. Perfect for 2 persons!

The kitchenette has everything you need to cook your light meals with. A portable cooker, cookware, cooking utensils, cutlery, dishes, glasses, microwave, a 92L fridge, and excellent bathroom facilities. The bathroom, however, follows ecologically sustainable principles, including an eco-friendly compost toilet, hand basin, and shower (gas heated for hot showers).

If you're plan to spend your tiny house NSW retreats here, we advise that you bring your basic necessities such as food and water during your stay with us. Preferably, bring biodegradable ones so that the grey water runoff does not harm the environment. Thank you!

Loved the tiny home and property. Walked down for a swim in Cox River, and took a short drive to Blue Mountains walks each day. Beautiful location and very peaceful. Wish I had more time there! Only thing is the bed upstairs is a little cramped - for someone 6ft2 like me, I banged my head on the roof a couple times. I guess it is a tiny home though!
