Size matters when it comes to tiny houses

We know they are popping up everywhere, but these two tiny houses are certainly poles apart. Tiny Away, which has more than 150 of these container-sized holiday homes around Australia, has opened a new rental in Crackenback in the Snowy Mountains. 

Despite its small size, it is equipped with a kitchenette, queen-sized bed, ensuite bathroom, air conditioning and heating. The bathroom facilities include a waterless eco-friendly compost toilet, hand basin and shower, which is gas heated for hot showers. 

If a land holiday isn’t enough for you then Lilypad, a tiny house, which was designed by Chuck Anderson and first opened in 2018 before burning down in 2020, is open for bookings again. The mini house is moored a short distance from the yachts at Palm Beach Anchorage.
