Fast & Simple Build
Designed for quick installation and easy removal, the Eco Stretch House™ is a modular system constructed with pre-fabricated timber beams and posts designed to standard dimensions.
- Universal Interlocking Beams & Posts Timber beams and posts interlock to quickly assemble the frame
- With our fast-build joining system, pre-fabricated modular elements simply lock together to assemble the frame. This makes it possible for the structure to be erected by a small team with only basic training, keeping installation costs to an absolute minimum.
- As the structure is considered temporary and removable, costly and time-consuming planning approvals will not be necessary.
- A simple, no fuss build process means you get to market faster and realise a much quicker return on your investment.
“ It takes a small team just one day to assemble most units
Easily Transported
Smaller units are easily transported to remote glamping destinations with a flatbed trailer or small truck. Modular elements pack down to a neat crate, easily stowed until needed.

Low Impact
From sand to snow, on sloping or uneven ground… Our custom engineered self-levelling feet make it possible to erect units on almost any terrain – giving you the freedom to easily turn unused land into an income-generating property with the added flexibility to relocate unit as the need dictates.
- Units are elevated on galvanised steel feet and simply levelled by adjusting the height of each foot.
- This removes the need for costly foundations that may leave unsightly scars on the environment when the unit is removed or relocated.
- Elevated units are less prone to weathering.
- Plumbing and electrical services are more accessible.
- Elevated units are warmer in colder climates.
- Snakes and bugs are also less likely to make an unwanted appearance.

Modular Design
An Eco Stretch House™ is a scalable structure you can configure to meet your needs. Modular interlocking units of standard
dimensions connect together to create multiple floor plans.*

Decks can be placed on any side. Stairs can be clipped on at any access point.
Bedrooms, bathrooms and/or decks can be added after-build, simply by plugging into the existing structure.
“ Scale the size, configure the floor plan, and select wall panelling options to meet your exact requirements.
Off-the-grid
Glamping is all all about getting off the beaten track and immersing yourself in nature without kicking comfort to the curb. Our ablution and power solutions make it possible for you to turn even the most remote ‘off-the-grid’ location into a sought-after glamping destination. We cater for three basic scenarios:
There is water and electricity conveniently located
In this case all that is required is a small DB board with a small 12 Volt transformer and a water connection shut-off valve. The hot water system is a compact electric system located beneath the basin. The shower includes a pumped sump to pump wastewater into a suitable tank or soak-away.
There is water but no electricity
In this case a solar system with a battery, a solar panel and charge controller is required along with a digital gas geyser and gas bottle. The shower includes a pumped sump to pump wastewater into to a suitable tank or soak-away.
There is neither water nor electricity
In this case a solar powered system is required which would include a battery, a solar panel, a charge controller plus a digital gas geyser with gas bottle and a 12 Volt 11.6 L/pm pump. The shower includes a pumped sump to pump wastewater into to a suitable tank or soak-away. A 1000 L rain water tank supplies water to the unit. Depending on solar conditions (shade and latitude) an 80 Watt solar panel (or larger) and a 105 Amp/hr high cycle battery (or more) can produce around 6.5 amps per hour for around 6 hours per day – pushing approximately 40 Amp/hrs back into the battery each sunny day – providing sufficient energy to power the pumps and LED lighting.
