Memories of yesteryear

The carriages were everything we had expected. Lyndall was very helpful and at check in then left us alone. The property was very well appointed and spotlessly clean. The outdoor spa was the highlight of our stay. The accommodation was well away from the main house ensuring complete privacy and quiet. Just the spot to unwind together. Debbie and Dave

Amazing experience in unique accommodation and picturesque setting

Such a beautiful experience staying in the Carriage's Spa. A stunning restoration of the old train carriages with an eye for detail into everything a guest would need for their stay. Very clean, comfortable and the host was very helpful. Would highly recommend to anyone.

First Class

Attention to detail is evident, from the loving restoration of the train to the well appointed kitchen and luxurious hot tub, everything is First Class. Nothing better than to dine in front of the vineyard, relax in the hot tub by the pond and sleep on the train.

Unique and isolated property

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. What a treat to stay in such a unique property that has been so lovingly restored with such incredible attention to detail. In terms of comfort, for us, the best part was the comfortable bed, having come from a week at a property where the bed was rock hard and our hips were in agony, we really appreciated the comfort of the bed. One suggestion for the owners would be to always make up two of the bedrooms, even if only 2 people book the property. We are at an age where insomnia and overheating affect us, so we always book a property with 2 rooms so that if need be one can move to the other room to get a good nights sleep. Plus due to the wonderful uniqueness of the train, one side of the bed near the window is much harder to navigate in and out of, so a second made up bed would have been wonderful. Must mention the fruit loaf bread left for our breakfast - oh so yummy. Suggestion to guests is to cut each slice in half so that it fits in the toaster. Yummy.

Pure bliss

So relaxing to stay here in the beautifully converted train carriages. Very well equipped with everything you need. Air conditioning was a real bonus in all areas as we scored a couple of really hot days. The spa was a lovely touch. So nice to relax on the deck and watch the sunset. Lots of native birds in the trees. David and Lyndall were lovely people, excellent communication. Overall 5 stars without a doubt. Would definitely return. I could see it would be nice to stay in any season.

From the lovely detail of the restored carriages, to the sunrise over the vineyard and sunset over the haystacks thus property was the perfect getaway. We really did not want leave after 4 days. Lyndall was a dream to communicate with and her home made fruit bread was the perfect breakfast. Thoroughly recommend!

An amazing and unique accommodation.

What an amazing and unique experience staying in two 1920-1930s train carriages was. The carriages have been beautifully restored with all the modern amenities that you need that create a comfortable experience while still feeling like you are staying in another era. You can get lost in it and at times it does feel like you are traveling on a train. The two carriages are undercover which is a nice touch and sitting on the chairs on the spacious deck watching nature go by was very therapeutic and the spa was very relaxing. Having the animals on the property really allowed us to get back to nature and the mountain bikes were a lot of fun. We were lucky enough to experience quite a bit of heavy rain which only added to the experience. Echuca is an interesting location in itself with the Murray River providing the border of Victoria and New South Wales so its definitely worth exploring at least once. Lyndall and David have done a really great job with the property and Lyndall is an excellent responsive host. You won't be dissapointed.

Perfect peace

What a magnificent getaway! We had planned to do a couple of day trips into Echuca and surrounds over our Easter break. Instead, we parked the car Good Friday afternoon and didn't move from the property until check out on Easter Monday. We had all we needed right there in such an idyllic setting...beautifully appointed and cleverly restored accommodation, thoughtful and tasty breakfast provisions (Lyndall's homemade fruit loaf was way better than our specialty hot cross buns), and a vineyard full of ewes and newborn lambs. We couldn't move from the station platform verandah...except to soak in the spa. Love, love, LOVED every minute. Thank you Lyndall and David. Sorry we didn't make it to the cellar door...next time!

Fabulous property - exceptionally well appointed and relaxing!

What can I say! Lyndall's place is fabulous - magnificent train carriages renovated with a great attention to detail. Loved the wood, the basin and the old signs. So too, there is an excellent spa with uplit vines nearby, shower, deck, and a kitchen that I'd kill to have at home. Thoughtful touches such as extra towels, plastic wine glasses for the spa, and a delicious breakfast. The beds are comfortable - we both slept really well. Lovely to be amongst the vines, near a dam, appreciated the metal art about the place, and the animals. An added bonus was that we could purchase wine and pistachio nuts when we were leaving. Very friendly hosts. Thanks again to Lyndall and family. Regards Kerrie and Karen
