Hidden away at a secret location in the hills of Adelaide is a tiny home complete with timber features, a day bed and small kitchen surrounded by quiet serenity. 

CABN offers a tranquil experience through their environmentally friendly cabins and encourage visitors to turn off their phones, chill out and enjoy the company of others for a digital detox.

Inside their original 2017 cabin dubbed ‘Jude’ is a laidback design all compact into a five-and-a-half metre long house that can be rented out for $190 per night.

When you step indoors you are welcomed by a homey feel with the chance to appreciate the serenity of the Adelaide hills throughout your stay.  

The tiny home away from home is two and a half metres wide, has four metre high ceilings and includes a bathroom with a toilet and shower, breakfast bar, day bed, small kitchen, gas cooktop and a kettle.

CABN’s marketing and communications coordinator Shane Laidlaw said ‘Jude is definitely our most popular cabin – it has big glass windows to let in natural light and can fit up to four people’.

He said the business considers their brand to fit under the ‘experience-based tourism’ category, focusing on wellness and the environment.   

The cabin operates ‘off-grid’ from electricity, indicating it is mostly self-sustained through the use of external power such as solar (Jude pictured)

The cabin operates from ‘off-grid’ electricity, indicating it is mostly self-sustained through the use of external power such as solar and also has rainwater tanks to catch flowing water in the wet season. 

Shane described this ecological caution as a ‘no trace philosophy’ with the aim to leave little impact on the gorgeous countryside location. 

This forward thinking also encourages others to leave little impact when visiting by considering the what food and material is brought to the cabin. 

The business has two additional hidden cabin locations in South Australia and another two in Victoria, allowing for more customers to experience a relaxing retreat. Each has a specific name and slightly varies in style (South Australian ‘Matilda’ pictured on left and Victorian ‘Sadie’ cabin pictured on right)

The business has two additional hidden cabin locations in South Australia named Matilda and Georgia as well as another two in Victoria named Sadie and Allira.  

All the specific sites are only revealed a couple days before customers visit, adding suspense and excitement to the experience. 

The tiny houses are also designed with a creative flair and built with sustainable materials to have a maximum impact on those who stay.
