Train vacation rentals in English Channel

We've had a lovely week in the train carriage. Long walks and days on the beaches, cream teas and great meals out. My teenage children even forgot about TV and Wifi and enjoyed lots of chess and board games, and star gazing after days out! If you want to switch off and have a relaxing week in a beautiful part of the Isle of Wight, this is the perfect stay. It's a little shabby chic, but full of charm and has everything you'll need - very cosy and lots of space for dogs to sniff and run around.

We had a lovely weekend, the train carriage was brilliantly renovated and the garden and views so pretty. Marion and her family were so kind and welcoming. We highly recommend this lovely place!

St Austell's hidden gem! We are so pleased we stumbled upon this quirky, off grid stay nestled in the valley. My wife and I, our 3 children 3,4 and 6 and our dog Winnie all fitted comfortably into the carriage. The boys loved the bunk beds and our eldest took the twin room at the other end of the carriage. We had the double! The weather wasn't great so we had the little woodburner on its the morning and before bed, and the kids loved helping us build the fire. It was our first time using an eco loo, which is not for everyone but I loved it! Fantastic warm outdoor shower added an element of luxury to the stay. There was also a lot of open outdoor space which the kids loved cycling around on. Great opportunity to get the kids away from screens, and our eldest is now addicted to Uno! For us, the carriage was a great intro into off grid living and we found the experience good value for money. Thank you Chris & Jo! The Duseks.

Compact space which has been made very comfortable. The outside space is amazing. We had a lovely weekend.

The carriage was very private and the views across the fields were great. plenty of wood provided for the outside log burner, we really enjoyed watching the sun disappear as we sat around the fire. The table and chairs outside were perfect for breakfast in the sunshine. The bathroom was huge and just a couple of steps away. The heated towel rail is great too. We absolutely loved the outside bath and it was such a highlight to sit in the bath and look across the fields at the pheasants. We used the walking book provided and did a lovely walk around Lyme Regis, in parts that were quiet and not seen before. We totally loved staying and didn't want to leave. Would love to return again.

Very nice stay. Happened to meet Amy when we arrived and she was warm and friendly. Lovely little place with just what you need. Lots of storage under the bed with the microwave, hob etc underneath ready to be pulled out and used. Comfy bed. Slept me and my partner (we’re both 6ft tall) no problems. Nice cosy long weekend away with a fire to keep us warm.

If you are looking for a cabin to stay in in the area this is a great choice. The place was lovely, clean, comfortable and cosy, beautiful views, very peaceful and Clara was friendly and super helpful. Will stay again.

Stayed here for my Mum's 70th birthday and it was superb. Beautifully laid out and decorated, it felt quirky and cosy. The rooms were well proportioned and beds were comfy - Shepherds hut was also a hit. Stunning views of the beach, and the decking gets the sun all day. BBQ was a great addition also. We will be back!

We had a lovely weekend away for my boyfriend’s 21st birthday. The hot tub was amazing with beautiful views. The bed was so comfy! The check in process was so easy and the pictures were very useful! We will definitely be back. Thanks Hannah and James!

Nous avons passé 4 jours formidables avec nos 2 enfants. La vue est exceptionnelle, le calme apaisant. De belles balades à faire avec une pause au coin du feu 🔥au retour. Top. A vivre en été aussi, on s'imaginent déjà à l'apéro sur la terrasse. Je garde l'adresse précieusement.

This is our second trip to Victoria's train carriages. My sister and I adore staying here with our kids. Victoria's place is fun, friendly, inviting and just so relaxing! The facilities and personal touches are so homely, the perfect place to shut off from everything and enjoy some time away! Thoughtful welcome treats greet you on your arrival and the kids always enjoy the selection of board games. We made use of the fantastic outdoor space this time around and also spent time on the beach, which is just a very short walk from the carriages. Thank you once again Victoria! We cannot wait to return!
