A unique sleeper train carriage near Bathurst that's off the rails!

WELCOME! Greetings from your hosts, Robyn & Chris.

When Chris proposed his wild train idea, Robyn enthusiastically agreed, saying 'YES, let's do it!' The quest for the perfect carriage began, and soon enough, a carriage was being craned into Seldon Park, marking the start of an incredible journey.

The real work kicked off with Chris the Carpenter leading the construction, while Robyn rallied friends and family for painting and plumbing tasks. With Robyn's expertise in styling and dressmaking, the carriage was transformed from an old decommissioned Queenslander into a delightful and quirky getaway train.
While adding mod cons we have kept the sleeper carriage very original, with 4 perfectly intact double bunk sleeper rooms,
we took out a wall to add a double bedroom. Then another to save the small but quirky guards kitchen! Then came the deck! the perfect space to BBQ while enjoying the beautiful exhibited gardens, Orchard, Trains rolling by, views towards Bathurst and beyond. The sunset and stars are a wonder to behold!

Slowly but surely, the carriage took shape, promising a wonderful experience. We are thrilled to share our creation with you and hope that you enjoy it as much as we do.

We have owned Seldon Park for 11 years and have spent that time renovating both the house and the property. We love the ambience of our 20 Acres with Orchid providing a perfect space to sit in nature and an abundance of fruit during Summer, Robyns garden has established and was exhibited in the Bathurst Spring Spectacular in 2023 with 8 hundred visitors over the October weekend! If you a garden lover Robyn will be happy to give you a tour! Perthville itself is a lovely peaceful village perfect for a walk in the crisp morning air, it boasts an old world bluestone pub perfect for a cold beer and classic pub food!
Bathurst is only 8kms away with so much to see and do giving you the best of both country and city life!
