We are so looking forward to lovely Spring time in our valley!! 🌼 🌼 🌼
The flowers have just started popping up everywhere. It’s going to be a beautiful flower season.

The carriage features a bathroom, ensuring a comfortable and convenient stay.

For sleeping arrangements, there is a bunk room as well as a main bedroom. The bunk room is designed to accommodate 2 kids or a single adult and one kid, featuring a bunk bed with slightly smaller dimensions than a standard single bed. The top bunk measures 180 cm x 62 cm, while a typical single bed measures 188 cm x 92 cm. It provides a cozy and snug sleeping space for a child or smaller adult.

The main bedroom offers a comfortable sleeping area for two adults. The bed is designed to ensure a good night’s sleep, allowing you to wake up refreshed and ready to explore the beautiful surroundings. The interior of the train carriage is small but practical, exuding a delightful charm that adds to the overall experience.

Outside the carriage, you’ll find a lovely braaipit, perfect for enjoying outdoor meals and immersing yourself in the serene countryside ambiance. Additionally, there is a pool with a stunning view over the surrounding landscape. It provides a refreshing retreat on warm days, allowing you to cool off and unwind in a beautiful setting.

In summary, staying in this converted railway train carriage at Red Earth Farm offers a unique and extraordinary experience. With its well-equipped kitchen, dining booth, bathroom, bunk room, and main bedroom, it provides all the essentials for a comfortable stay. Despite the compact space, the carriage’s practicality and gorgeous interior design make it a charming and memorable place to spend your vacation.
