Guest Access:
Guests will have access to the tiny house and its surrounding areas, including the horse yards, walking, mountain biking, and horse riding trails.
The Neighborhood:
The Orchard Block sits near a town in Maldon, which is known as Australia's first notable town. It is a gold rush town and still maintains its strong heritage. The town has two pubs, many cafes for all tastes, a bank, a supermarket, homeware shops, dress shops, and galleries.
On top of that, the tiny house is situated close to Castlemaine and Bendigo (i.e., which is also known as one of Victoria's major regional cities). Bendigo has all the trimmings of a small city including fantastic art galleries, exciting attractions, and events - from the traditional hill climb car race to the oldest running Easter Parade to wineries, walks, drives and eateries.
Have a look at Explore Bendigo's facebook page and Experience Maldon's page. They have some great things to visit, see and do. I can highly recommend a trip to Bendigo - the art gallery is amazing and often has wonderful exhibitions.
And if you are looking for a great coffee and croissant try Maldon's very own French cafe - it is open Wednesday to Sunday. The coffee is really good!

By car:
- Drive to and from Melbourne on the Calder Highway (90 mins). Access to the tiny home and all towns around us is via sealed roads. Googles maps can take you anywhere.
