Very beautiful and exactly what I was looking for. Had a very peaceful time surrounded with nature and also had good experience surrounded by animals like wombat, kangaroos, horses etc.

Review
Lovely location and super peaceful for a great few days away. Only downside is the accommodation is quite weather dependent as there’s no cover for outdoor areas such as over the bath, BBQ or fire pit. Sadly it rained both night of our stay so we were pretty limited in how we could enjoy the property.
The feeling of being on the country side felt amazing, the beds so comfy and fire was great.

Hey Renee,
Thank you for your 5/5 review of Banksia!
We are glad that you had a comfortable stay at the Tiny Home!
The tiny house, Banksia, was aesthetically constructed and features an outdoor bath that gives the impression that you are floating out to the dam. It is located on a functioning chicken farm in the heart of Kangaroo Valley, NSW. The house is built responsibly, has plenty of natural light, and is the ideal get-away from the city.
We look forward to hosting you again in the future!
Kind regards,

My partner and I enjoyed our stay. The tiny house is very nice and comfortable. There's enough kitchen utensils to cook or BBQ. Otherwise it's a short drive to KV township to explore the eateries.
Me and my partner really enjoying stay in this tiny house and we really like the view and we also can see so many kangaroo ..,

Beautiful spot!
We had great time, made lots of fun and lovely memories. It was nice that the place is pet friendly. All the views were amazing, especially night time with all the stars in the sky and reflection on the lake. Thank you so much for complimentary wine and some snacks. We enjoyed toasting marshmallows while soaking up the warmth from the fire pit. Can’t wait for our next visit!

I went exploring in Kangaroo Valley and stayed at Banksia for the night. I fell asleep to a cacophony of frogs and a starlit night. A dawn, while still warm and comfy in the superbly wonderful bed, I looked out at the pasture across the lake and saw millions of kangaroos hopping by. It was magic. The location, the comfort, the serenity was lovely and just what I needed. Thank you to the wonderful hosts.
A very cute cabin overhanging the water. Close enough to town and beautiful scenery. The cabin was comfy and well finished, and the extra outdoor tub and shower were a romantic feature. Thanks for having us, would definitely recommend for a couples getaway.
