Tiny- ECO House -Kensho- WITHIN THE OTWAY NATIONAL PARK, GREAT OCEAN ROAD LORNE

These tiny eco dwellings have been custom built to compliment the principles of “Forest Therapy’ or “Shinrinyoku’ which is a popular practice in Japan. Shinrin means “forest” and yoku means “bath.”

Shinrin-yoku means bathing in the forest atmosphere, or taking in the forest through our senses. It is a researched based therapeutic modality with multi-factorial health benefits including stress reduction and elevating mood; and is impacting the world.

The tiny houses underpin “Qii House’s” philosophy and each is immersed in a forest canopy within the Great Otway National Park; a haven for peace and tranquillity. And yes, they do have some “quirk”, including red cupboards, colourful furnishings, a large pantry, queen day bed with three built in drawers, smeg appliances, a large round “fishbowl” window, double sliding glass doors leading to your own private deck with a large custom built eco bath big enough for two, a hammock, yoga mats and some seating. You will also have your own private carpark.

Getaway
A beautiful surrounding for a peaceful getaway. It was too hot for the little fan to keep us cool which was definitely a down side but all in all it was a wonderful place to getaway.
