About this property

This beautifully renovated old Victorian railway carriage is bursting with character, and is set at the bottom of a paddock surrounded by nature. What more memorable and comfortable way to spend a break relaxing or exploring Norfolk?

Stepping back in time to the wonderful era of the steam train is effortless, thanks to the quirky original brass features and flooring in this wonderful carriage. On entering The Railway Carriage you will find yourself in the large open-plan living area. At one end of the train is a fully equipped kitchen, stocked with everything you need to cook something delicious after a day discovering Norfolk. There is an electric oven and induction hob, fridge and microwave - along with all the pots, pans and crockery you could possibly want. Sit back and relax in the middle section of the carriage; with a comfortable leather sofa in front of a flat screen television. There is also an authentic dining table and seating for two with views out over the surrounding paddocks. Linked onto the carriage is The Guards Room, where a classic Victorian, walnut double bed sits between two windows with views of woodland on one side and green paddocks on the other. The en-suite shower room leads from the bedroom with a large walk-in shower, wash basin and WC.
