Cold, wet and windy in the Tiny House
Incredible storms overnight but safe and sound in the Tiny House. Could have done with a heater as very cold in the morning.

Nice location and design of tiny house
Good experience living in a tiny house, investigating all advantages and disadvantages of such type of house. Was cold overnight as not enough power in there and no hot water sometimes. Probably would be better feelings at summer time. Generally was good experience anyway. Nature and the view around are beautiful. Thank you.

Disliked: Amenities
It was great to experience a sustainable off the grid property. However, the solar system was insufficient. Even though we only used the lights on the first night, by the second morning the electric system stopped working meaning darkness on the second night, freezing cold showers as the water heater could not kick in and the fan inside the toilet stopped. The computable toilet was also not the best system. A bit disappointing really.

The Ridge is a gorgeous Tiny House with beautiful sweeping countryside views and floor to ceiling windows that you can peer out of with a morning coffee in bed. Very pleased with our stay.
