The Space:
Loburn Retreat 1 by Tiny Away sits in a quiet, rural location of South Island, New Zealand, just 12 minutes from the lively historic farming town of Rangiora and 43 minutes away from the central city of Christchurch. It is conveniently close to attractions such as Waikuku Beach, numerous Rangiora restaurants and cafes, and the popular Ohoka Farmers' Market.
You're just 20 minutes from Pegasus Coast beaches and Willowbank Wildlife Reserve. The tiny home sits on a sloped block, so be ready for a short incline. Guests also enjoy private access to a woodland with a slackline, firepit teepee, labyrinth walk, and a shared space with games, art, and relaxation areas.
It's a 139-square-foot tiny home with easy water access, split air conditioning, a kitchenette, cooking equipment, and excellent private 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).
