Only an hour drive and short ferry ride from Melbourne but feel like you're a million miles away. Take in the calm serenity of French Island National Park from the comfort of our brand new tiny house situated on a very spacious and scenic area of a 70 hectare property. French Island is Victoria's largest coastal island and promises a truly remote and unforgettable experience. Completely off-grid and immersed in pristine landscapes, take the opportunity to get nature-bound. You may wish to go hiking, fishing, sit on the beach, explore the National Park or wildlife watching (birds, koalas, echidnas, potoroos). Choose your own adventure on this unique island.

This is one of two tiny houses on the property. The tiny houses are 100 metres apart and not visible from one another. There is a private house on the property but a reasonable distance away and cannot be seen from the tiny house.

We've got your on-island transportation covered with our hire car!**

With a population of only around 130 people, French Island is a small tight-knit community on a very large island! It is the largest coastal island in Victoria. 70% of the island is National Park. The island runs completely off the grid with no mains water or electricity. We hope you enjoy French Island as much as we do!
