Little Oakey by Tiny Away

Summary:
Your countryside getaway awaits you at Little Oakey by Tiny Away! This farm stay QLD escape is in a class of its own, perched overlooking Little Oakey Creek in a quiet and private oasis at the base of the Toowoomba Range. The only sounds you'll hear in this serene valley are the calls of eastern whipbirds and the gentle flow of the seasonal creek.

It's hard to believe, but our holiday homes are only 10 minutes away from the bustling Toowoomba CBD.

The Space:
Little Oakey by Tiny Away is located in Withcott, nestled at the foothills of the Toowoomba Range. This tiny home opens up to a flat expanse of grass, roughly the size of a small soccer field. A seasonal creek flows around the grassy area, filled with birdlife, creating a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere that enhances the natural tranquility of the location.

If you're traveling from Brisbane via Warrego Hwy/A2, it’s a quick drive of just 1 hour and 48 minutes, with Toowoomba City only 16 minutes away. Our holiday homes in Queensland are also close to Jubilee Park, Table Top Mountain, and Picnic Point Lookout.

A cozy 139-square-foot tiny home with easy access to water, split air conditioning, a queen-sized bed, a well-equipped kitchenette, and excellent bathroom facilities. These amenities include an eco-friendly cassette toilet with a removable waste-holding tank, hand basin, and shower (gas-heated for hot showers).

If you plan to spend your farm stay QLD escapes here, we advise that you bring your basic necessities such as food and water during your stay with us. Thank you!
