Weekend Trip to Hazy Stays

Beautiful view. My boyfriend and I spent majority of our time on the little deck. We didn’t get to experience the goats because they were doing maintenance elsewhere but 2 ducks visited once while we were there. The windows are tinted and the shower has amazing water pressure. The toilet is a compost toilet inside the tiny home bathroom and the shower is outside on the deck (still covered and has a sink). I didn’t have much reception at the tiny home but that could be different for others depending on what network you are with (for example my boyfriend reception occasionally worked). It is on a quiet street and lovely area. The family do live and work from the land aswell but they have made it barely noticeable they are there. The deck has a beautiful kitchen which the wall of that expands out further for privacy. Aswell as bushes in place to give it that extra block. They had a wonderful book that had recommendations of where to go and where to eat, whilst we were there we only ate and went to anything on the book since it was our first time there. I recommend the potty mouth pizza, Okky chips, the breakfast place in Pottsville was absolutely amazing and our favourite activity was sunflower picking at farm and co. Hope this helps!

Just spent a week there with my 2 teenagers. Absolutely loved the cute tiny home and location. Lovely and rural feel but right near the beach. Explored both bush and beach. Beds were really comfortable and shower super hot for the cold nights. Enjoyed the fire each night and the feeding the cute goats. Thanks Michaley and Josh for a great place to stay.

3 nights at Hazy Stays

We enjoyed our stay a lot. It was quiet, the beds comfortable and had a lovely view of the hills from the patio/ bed. We loved the fire at night time and had plenty of wood from the 2 bundle package. Its close to Potsville which has nice food options, we got nice Thai food as we arrived late the first night. The Thai closes early so we took it home and had it in front if the fire. We also had a lovely breakfast at Black Drop which i can highly recommend, loved by gluten free hubby, fussy eater 11 year old and me who can't eat eggs or bacon. I don't recommend to arrive at night as it would have been a breeze during daylight but harder at night time but Michaley was very helpfull to guide us to the tiny house. All in all lovely few days away. Thank you Michaley and Josh.

Weekend Trip to Tuntable Creek Eco stay

Beautiful stay, the surroundings are magical, the truck itself is so well thought out & the attention to detail made us feel like we were in a mini hotel room! The outdoor bath is spectacular, even in the cold cold winter mornings that hot bath felt otherworldly ✨ (the shower is phenomenal too) The bed was warm (electric blanket helped) & even the extra bed downstairs was comfortable. (I ended up down there the second night as I’m 33 weeks pregnant & kept having to get up to use the loo, it’s a bit of a hike up to the top bed otherwise) The fire pit was great, we used the pizza oven too to cook which was a lovely touch! We didn’t have a pen to write in your guest book so can only apologise there’s no review in there. Overall it was a wonderful stay for our baby moon 🌙 Thank you Felicity for allowing us into your space!

Such a beautiful spot! We had a great stay, even though it rained for most of our time there. We still checked out Protestors and had a nice drive out to Nimbin. The bath was lovely and so was the visit from the neighbours dog…such a cutie. The bed is quite firm and tricky to get in and out of, but I wouldn’t let that stop you if you’re looking for a weekend away! Lots of thought and care has gone into the linens and kitchenware and it was an appreciated touch 😊

We had such a great time at Yapunyah Park Cottage! Sally and Steve were so welcoming and made us feel like part of the family from the moment we arrived. The cabin was super cozy, and warm everything we needed for a relaxing stay. We loved playing with their two dogs, Lily and Chaos, who were both very friendly and affectionate. It was also great fun to feed the horses who were also incredibly friendly and gentle. Overall, it was the perfect escape, and we couldn’t have asked for better hosts or a nicer place to stay. Highly recommend! Thank you, Sally and Steve!

The best tiny homes in North Coast guide

Where to go

Hunter Valley

Just north of Sydney and Newcastle, the Hunter Valley is one of Australia’s most renowned wine regions. Sip semillon and shiraz at cellar door tastings, visit family-run boutique wineries, then pitch your tent or park your RV amid the vineyards or along the Hunter River. Just to the north, the World Heritage-listed Gondwana Rainforests of Barrington Tops National Park afford endless options for bushwalking, fishing, and camping.

South North Coast

Beautiful beaches and wild bushlands await along the southern stretch of the North Coast between Newcastle and Port Macquarie. Go sandboarding at the Stockton Bight Sand Dunes, take a dolphin-watching cruise from Port Stephens, or enjoy kayaking, fishing, and camping at Myall Lakes National Park. Further north, Port Macquarie is the gateway to numerous lakes, lagoons, and wildlife reserves.

Central North Coast

Holidaymakers flock to Coffs Harbour for its water sports, wildlife-spotting, and whale-watching cruises, but the coastal town is also the gateway to some of NSW’s most popular national parks. Dorrigo National Park has spectacular waterfalls and scenic trails through UNESCO-listed rainforest, while there’s great camping at nearby Guy Fawkes River National Park and Nymboi-Binderay National Park.

Northern Rivers

Byron Bay is the quintessential NSW beach town, known for its epic surf and bohemian vibes, but Ballina, Brunswick Heads, and Tweed Heads are equally good choices for coastal campers. Don’t miss the Rainforest Way scenic drive, the beaches and lagoons of Bundjalung National Park, and the Cape Byron Headland Reserve, Australia’s easternmost point.
