The Space:
Lough View Cabin by Tiny Away sits in the rural locality of Rosebrook, just 282 kms west from Melbourne. Nearby Killarney Beach, Tower Hill Wildlife Reserve, Flagstaff Hill Lookout, and local food options at Port Fairy are just a few of the local attractions in the area.

The holiday home is set on a 30-acre farm, offering stunning views of Belfast Lough and the dunes bordering the Great Southern Ocean. This 139-square-foot tiny home features easy access to water, split-system air conditioning, a kitchenette with 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—making it a perfect choice among relaxing holiday homes.
