Summary:
Tiny Pip is an opportunity to unplug from work calls and emails and plug into what really matters. Perched on a hill, within 140 acres of land, the main window benefits from exceptional views. Walk 15-minutes from the house to an even higher spot for panoramic views of the area. It’s an idyllic picnic spot and a perfect place to watch the sunset.
Located just 90 minutes drive from Melbourne, you'll feel like you are miles away from anything at Pip. From the front doorstep, you'll be able to observe kangaroos grazing and lazing and dozens of colourful bird species (we've left you some binoculars and a bird-watching guide). There are some cattle and horses on the land too.
Set in the Heathcote wine region, you'll find plenty of wineries within a 30-minute radius. It's just 10 minutes to Tooborac village, which has a well-known country pub (with brewery), pie shop and general store. We recommend visiting the Pink Cliffs Reserve where you can wander through intriguing mini gorges and cliffs of fine pink clay.
Named after the kind and loving character of Pip from Charles Dickens’ Great Expectations, this tiny house has plenty of views to share. Facing northeast, wake up to uninterrupted countryside views and soak in the glow of the sun setting over the rolling hills.
