A beautiful Railway Carriage, situated with stunning views.

I love this Railway Carriage, it has that fabulous feeling of being cozy yet spacious... A true delight with all the extra bits and bobs! The bedroom is truly cozy and romantic ... you can lie in bed and watch the wildlife stroll across the field. The kitchen area has all the mod cons that you would hope to have. There's a table for two and a snuggly sofa again looking out through the double doors to the woods.. Outside, there's a small private patio where you can sip your wine and watch the sun go down!

Blissful couple of days
We had such a relaxing 2 night break! The hosts were fab, welcoming and great communication before we arrived. It's a beautiful setting and the carriage itself was great, loved having a view from everywhere we sat! It had everything we needed to cook which was a bonus. The pool was fun (aka freezing!), It's a great addition and we really enjoyed the local walks. One from the carriage and another around Calne/Bowood House. The hosts recommended Somerford Arms to eat and it was amazing, food, service, everything, we were really impressed! All in all a perfect getaway xx

Amazing Peaceful Property
This is a great little find within short driving distance for all that the Cotswolds has to offer. We arrived in the evening and Hilary was there to greet us and show us around. The carriage itself has everything you need and we were grateful for the wine, juice and water in the fridge aswell as the tea and coffee. The property was very clean and tidy and so cosy for 2 people and such a peaceful location overlooking fields. Use of the natural pool was a bonus, although we didn’t fully take advantage of this as we didn’t get back until late. We loved it and will be back, thanks to Hilary and family for making us feel welcome.

Perfect midweek recharge
A lovely place to stay and recharge our batteries. Clean, comfy and lovely and quiet. Hilary was the model host who made us feel very welcome and had some excellent recommendations for the local area. The natural pool was INCREDIBLE! Looking for another excuse to get away already...

Luxury Glamping at its best
This little railway sleeper has everything anyone could possibly need! It’s really tastefully decorated & comfortable. Toilet, hand basin & shower all in the little bathroom within the unit.. no trekking across garden or field to use the facilities. Hilary is the most wonderful host, gave us the warmest welcome & even put some fizz in the fridge so we could celebrate my 50th! A dip in the cool swimming pond was perfect on such a hot weekend. We saw deer in the field & thoroughly enjoyed the peace & quiet of this beautiful spot. I would highly recommend this little gem & would love to visit again!

What a wonderful location for the perfect getaway. I went with my 9 year old son and we didn’t want to leave. From cosy nights in the carriage, to swimming in the natural pool, to playing with the friendly dogs, to searching for wildlife in the pool. The trip had it all. Great location for exploring the local area and Hillary and Nick are very happy to help with everything in-between. We will be back!!

Perfect little hide away
The railway carriage is modern, cosy and has everything you need for a few days away. It’s a perfect little hideaway. The host Hillary was so welcoming, she made me and my mum feel immediately at home in her picturesque part of the world. Hillary, gave great local recommendations and ensured our stay was as pleasant as it could be. In the time leading up to our stay she was very understanding and communicated effectively to support us through Vrbo issues. It was a truly lovely stay from start to end. I would highly recommend!

Great place to enjoy the English countryside. I arrived to a Roe Buck 50 yards from the front door and woke to a Doe the following morning. Hilary was the hostess with the mostest and nothing was too much trouble: I felt she really did want my stay to be the best ever. The Carriage was super comfortable with everything you could need. I will stay again. Thank you.

3 night stay
We had such a lovely, relaxing country stay. The property is exactly as pictured, plenty of space for 2 people and amazing views. Hillary and Nick were so welcoming & provided lots of suggestions on where to go/what to do. There are so many beautiful places to visit nearby and we absolutely loved using the natural pool too. We would definitely recommend!

We had a glorious few days here
The carriage was absolutely charming, very thoughtfully and beautifully fitted out. It had everything we needed for a really lovely stay. Having the natural pool to use was a real bonus and we had some lovely swims in it. Hilary and her family were delightful, so friendly and welcoming. There was plenty to do in the area so we really want to go back and stay again. Thank you you making our stay so good
