Brookbank by Tiny Away | Maison dans Neerim South

Summary:
Brookbank by Tiny Away puts you right in the heart of nature’s daily routine. Perched on Shady Creek in Neerim’s wild hills, this tiny house Victoria retreat delivers a great up-close experience to the raw hustle of nature.
Snag fresh fruit from the trees, and hand-feed sheep, chickens, and the resident cow. Birds come and go like clockwork at this holiday home, passing on chirps as they flutter-by. When it’s time for a change of pace, pubs, breweries, and wine bars are just a 15 minute drive away.
The Space:
Brookbank by Tiny Away sits in Neerim South, just 12 minutes from Rokeby, where paddocks meet the steady flow of Shady Creek. Hidden among towering deciduous trees, this holiday home trades the city grind for the rustle of leaves and open skies.
Spend the day chasing waterfalls at Toorongo Falls, sipping wine at Brandy Creek Winery, or heading up to Mt Baw Baw. Prefer a slower pace? Watch the mist rise over Blue Rock Dam or wander through Bunyip State Park—just you and the sound of nature.
A comfortable 139-square-foot tiny home with easy access to water, split air conditioning, a kitchenette, cooking equipment, and excellent bathroom facilities. These amenities include an eco-friendly cassette toilet, hand basin, and shower (gas-heated for hot showers).
If you plan to spend your tiny house Victoria retreat here, we advise bringing your basic necessities, such as food and water, during your stay with us. Thank you!

Guests are welcome to use the spacious cubby house next to the tiny house. It has a brick chimney to keep warm on cold or rainy nights and is great for drying wet gear or storing bikes and clothes. A cozy, useful space to make your stay even better!
The Neighborhood:
Brookbank by Tiny Away sits in Neerim South, where hills meet rugged adventure. Just 12 minutes from Rokeby, this spot presents real, untamed Gippsland. Dairy farms shape the scenery, art galleries and boutique accommodations add a cultural flair, and the nearby Baw Baw ranges bring snow, trails, and raw nature.
The Neerim South Wetlands offer a quiet contrast, while Rokeby’s trails push hikers to earn their views. Brookbank plants you right in the middle of it—small in size, big in experience.
