A VERY UNIQUE STAY - The Beau Van on Acreage with Wood Fire - Romantic & Fun

Enjoy the sounds of nature when you stay in this unique place. Set on a pretty park like acreage 2kms to town on the way to the Warrumbungle National Park this is a romantic and fun experience that also has everything you need to enjoy your stay. Escape the truck noise of town and stay in peace and quiet. All linens, doonas and blankets provided and just about everything you will need for a wonderful stay. Come and join the tiny home movement :)

If you're looking for a unique but very comfortable and romantic country escape look no further! The Beau Van is a very large vintage totally renovated caravan that is now a quirky tiny home on acreage with external ensuite and everything you could need for a cozy holiday to remember.
Get inspired by the tiny home movement.

You'll feel like you are miles away from anywhere but only 2 kms from town on the way to the mountains so no truck noise at night, and convenient for supplies, and bushwalking.

With a pillow top double bed with all high quality 100% French cotton linens and pillows provided, plus extra doonas & blankets, a well set up kitchen with wood stove for warmth, 4 burner cooker, microwave, fridge, toaster, kettle, coffee making options and a great range of other cooking utensils, plus a living room with 3 seater sofa, TV with streaming services all overlooking the garden, this place will make you feel something you haven't before.

There is an outdoor gas grill BBQ with oven, expansive all weather undercover sitting area, with extra lockable storage for your clothes and bags, and an external ensuite sized bathroom with hot shower, hot and cold handbasin and flush toilet. There is also a small fire pit for those winter nights under the stars. A seperate undercover dining area for meals or to use for games or study. Wood provided for the fire plus kindling, gloves, tools etc.

There is something special about spending time in a tiny home that is as well thought out and equipped as this place is. It sits on a private part of our acreage. Hope to see you soon!

A unique van getaway, very retro and really comfy , loved all the decorations and soft furnishings, made it feel like home. Outdoor seating area was great in the afternoon, very quiet spot and yet close to town, was great to have a stay that was different from the usual.

Cute, cosy, and well equipped. Had a lovely time staying here. Great communication with the host. Loved the friendly welcoming committee (aka the horse across the fence).

Funky, Fun & Functional - Traveling from the States to see southern stars near Sliding Springs Observatory, I found this unique VRBO. Part glamping, part tiny house, this was perfect for a lone male traveler for a week. A restored antique travel trailer provided a funky but fully functional accommodation. Bed was comfortable, kitchen and clothes washer were functional and the outdoor shower had great hot water. Pleasant outside sitting area, lots of birds and a couple of horses in a nearby pen made it relaxing. A bit frayed around the edges and dusty reflecting the environment, but that’s okay. Host was accommodating and responsive but respected privacy. Would not hesitate to book for a single traveler or a couple.

Cozy van in a beautiful and quiet location but not far from the stores, all the amenities listed were on point, wifi, hot water etc. Great customers service from the landlord, checking in on us and promptly answering inquiries. I definitely recommend

Warm, cute, cosy, quirky, cluttered. Hot water in the kitchen was tricky and the small oven dysfunctional. Bed was really comfortable and the outside shower was great. Better if you don’t have a house dust allergy!

Glad that you loved your stay in our quirky fun van. We did notice after you left that you had unplugged the grill oven in the kitchen. That may have been why you had difficulty with it but there is also another oven outside as part of the barbecue that works perfectly as well you could have used too. The hot water in the kitchen works very efficiently if used properly as per instructions. If you have allergies, spring is possibly not the best time to be in the mountains as all the wattle is coming out. Take care Jane 🙏

We had a wonderful stay at The Beau Van last weekend. It was clean, peaceful and very private, making it such a relaxing getaway. The location was perfect - quiet and surrounded by nature, yet still not far from town and everything we needed. A lovely place to stay while exploring the Warrumbungles during the day and Star Gazing at night!

So glad you enjoyed our Cozy Beau Van for your stay which is our budget option but has so many great extras that people enjoy such as the wood fire, quality linens and extra doonas, spacious outdoor area with cozy bathroom, outdoor fire pit and all weather extra dining space with BBQ grill to enjoy under the stars. Its always a good idea to read the listing before booking and also the directions provided to you so you have a smooth arrival and stay. So sorry that due to the weather you were unable to use the fire pit. Next time perhaps.
