Romantic Off-grid tiny house for 2 · creek access · sauna & gym add-on

The Tiny House

Slow mornings on the deck, a wander down to the creek and evenings under the stars. Our off-grid tiny house for two sits in its own private paddock at Wild and Seek in Upper Macdonald, near St Albans.

Warm timber interiors and floor-to-ceiling windows connect you with the surrounding countryside, while a comfortable loft bedroom, well-equipped kitchen and your own bathroom make it easy to settle in. Dogs are welcome too.

Sleeping

Climb up to the loft bedroom, where a Koala queen mattress and fresh linen await. Wake up slowly, put the coffee on and take your time over breakfast on the deck.

Kitchen and cooking

The purpose-designed kitchen has plenty of bench space and everything you need to prepare meals during your stay. We provide Will & Co coffee, organic teas from Little Wildling & Co, salt, pepper and olive oil.

Cook outside on the Weber gas BBQ or, when fire conditions permit, over the fire pit using the cooking racks and utensils provided.

Outdoors

The wrap-around deck has space for morning yoga, long lunches and stretching out with a book. Yoga mats are provided.

The creek is a short walk from the house, and trails run throughout the property. Keep an eye out for kangaroos, wombats, echidnas and native birds as you explore, then settle back on the deck as the stars come out.

Your setting

The Tiny House sits in its own private paddock with open paddock views and the occasional cow for company. The Cabin and Cottage are elsewhere on the property, separate from your accommodation.

The creek and walking trails are part of the wider property. Our wellness area is available to book separately, with exclusive use during your reserved session.

Bell tent

A 4 m bell tent beside the Tiny House gives you another space to relax during your stay and includes a sofa, armchair and games. If you’d like additional guests to sleep in the tent, please message us before booking to confirm arrangements and additional charges.

Optional private wellness session — $200

Make time for a wood-fired sauna, the twin outdoor baths and a workout in the fresh air. A short walk from your accommodation, our wellness area is exclusively yours for your booked session.

The custom wood-fired sauna offers a place to unwind, with twin outdoor baths alongside it. The open-air gym includes a weight bar, dumbbells, resistance bands, chin-up bars and yoga mats.

Your session includes:

• Exclusive use of the sauna, outdoor baths and gym
• Your choice of a morning session, 6am–1pm, or an afternoon and evening session, 2pm–9pm
• Fresh towels
• Guidance for first-time users

Wellness sessions cost $200 in addition to your accommodation. Message us here on Riparide to check availability and add a session to your stay.
