Timboon Boutique Central Apartment on the Rail Trail
Welcome to the former Library Apartment, affectionately known as The Toybox — a charming, cozy two-bedroom retreat in the heart of Timboon, recently crowned Victoria’s Top Tiny Town. It’s the perfect launchpad for food lovers, nature enthusiasts, and those seeking a slower, richer travel experience in Southwest Victoria.
Suitability The Toybox is ideally suited to couples or small families seeking a quiet, comfortable stay. The apartment sleeps up to four guests across two bedrooms only, with one Queen bed and one Double bed. Guests should be comfortable with the bed configuration provided, as no additional bedding is available and sleeping in the living area is not permitted. The property is not suitable for parties or group gatherings.
Inside, you’ll find a fully equipped kitchen with cooktop, oven, microwave, and all the essentials to prepare relaxed meals. The comfortable lounge offers a welcoming place to unwind, with a sofa, TV, and free Wi-Fi. The bathroom includes laundry facilities, and outside, a sun-drenched, decked courtyard provides a private space to enjoy a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine in the fresh country air.
Step outside and you’re immediately immersed in what makes Timboon so special. Located directly on the Timboon Rail Trail and the Food Artisans Trail, The Toybox is within easy walking distance of Provedore and Fat Cow cafés, the Timboon Railway Shed Whisky Distillery, and Timboon Fine Ice Creamery, with the Strawberry Farm and Berry Good Thai close by.
Enjoy a round at the local golf course, or take a scenic drive to the coastal villages of Port Campbell or Peterborough along the Great Ocean Road. There is so much to see and explore.

Perfect stay. Provide almost everything we need. Even chocolate and fresh flowers. The place is very clean and unique building. And only few minutes walk to everywhere in the town (ice cream shop. bars, coffee and rainyway walking) and also only around 20 minutes drive to all the scenic beaches. Kids like very much. Maryanne is a very nice lady to help and talk. Value stay and happy to be there again.
