The Best Tiny Cabins in ACT for an Off-Grid Sojourn
Reset with a stay at one of the best tiny cabins in the ACT.
There’s something about going off-grid that is undeniably cup-filling. Having no reception and getting offline makes you appreciate the simple joys of nature, reading a good book, or reconnecting with that special someone.
It’s hard to make time for this kind of digital detox in the hectic pace of our everyday lives, but they’re always worth it. So the next time you’re planning a weekend away, why not book a tiny cabin in the ACT?
Here are our picks of the best tiny homes and cosy cabins around Canberra.
Little Edgar at Lake George Winery
Situated at one of the oldest wineries in the Canberra District, Little Edgar at Lake George Winery is actually one of three tiny homes set up on the properties. Take a well deserved rest from wine tasting and wandering the vineyard and soak up the picturesque surroundings from this gorgeous spot.
Set high above the Shiraz vines and with sweeping views of Lake George, Little Edgar 139-square-foot home is pet friendly and has a queen-sized bed that sleeps two people. There’s also split air conditioning, and a kitchenette with cooking equipment, waterless eco-friendly compost toilet, and a gas heated shower.

Saddle Camp Tiny House
Just an hour’s drive from Canberra in the peaceful surrounds of Braidwood, Saddle Camp has two adorable tiny houses on a horse farm. The cute, compact home features a sleeping loft with a queen-size mattress, a fold-out sofa, a bathroom, and a toilet—what more could you need?
Surrounded by wide-open meadows, undisturbed woodlands, and wildlife to keep you company, this is a wonderful 168-acre piece of land that’s perfect for a weekend of connection.
Braidwood, NSW
@10minutessouth Tiny House
Simply adorable and only 10 minutes from Kingston in Canberra’s inner south, this tiny house is located in a private field. This tiny house has two lofts, one with a queen bed and the other with a single.
The kitchen is equipped with all the appliances you need to cook and the bathroom has a composting toilet that flushes. In the winter, enjoy gas heating and a campfire outside (don’t forget to bring the marshmallows!) and in the summer, make use of the air conditioning or ceiling fan. Connect with the wildlife, as you will likely see kangaroos, parrots, echidnas, rabbits, and wedge-tailed eagles during your stay.
Hume, ACT
Nyssa
A cosy cabin perched at the top of a steep gorge with epic views of the Shoalhaven River? Yes, please. An hour and a half north east of Canberra, there is a moderate 380 metre hike to reach the cabin, but boy oh boy, is it worth it. With an outdoor shower and woodfired heater, you can bring your four-legged pal along for an extra $40. The best part? There’s no reception, so you can truly digitally detox.
Windellama, NSW
