Get far away from traffic and motorways at Matariki Akura by Tiny Away in Matahiwi, just outside Masterton. Surrounded by open land and wide skies, this tiny home invites slower mornings, fresh air, and nights drizzled by stars. Masterton is a welcoming town and a great base for exploring the Wairarapa. Cycle through Martinborough vineyards, spend time at Castlepoint’s rugged coast, or head into the Tararua Ranges for walks and tramping tracks that keep nature close all day. #CozyTinyHome #HolidayHomesNZ

DETAILS

THE SPACE
Set on flat green land with open mountain views, Matariki Akura by Tiny Away sits quietly with no neighbours in sight. The tiny house is surrounded by grass, sky, and changing light.

Step outside and move straight into the outdoors or pick fresh produce from the veggie garden to use during your stay. Located in the town of Masterton, this rural pocket of joy still keeps everyday comforts close.

Cafés, Queen Elizabeth Park, local pools, and a skate rink are all nearby, while Pūkaha National Wildlife Centre, Tararua Forest Park, and Greytown are easy day trips. All of this is just 1.5 hours from Wellington, making it easy to unplug without going far.

The 139-square-foot tiny home includes water access, split air conditioning, a kitchenette, cooking gear, and a private bathroom with a gas-heated shower, hand basin, and eco-friendly cassette toilet.

Farming life, open spaces, and community events define the place here at Matariki Akura by Tiny Away. On Sundays, drop by the Masterton Market or take a short drive to Greytown for its well-known stalls and food finds. Nature is part of daily life. Pūkaha National Wildlife Centre is located north of town and features native forest, walking tracks, eel feeding, and connections to conservation and Māori culture. Queen Elizabeth Park brings families together with lakeside walks, miniature trains, putt golf, pools, and a skate park all in one place. The Tararua Forest Park rises nearby, drawing walkers who enjoy bush tracks and changing weather patterns.
