Relaxing place with great garden if you have a dog
Great location. Clean. Relaxing place to unwind. Only took 1 star off facilities as fridge froze our meat and milk over night but it won't stop us coming back next year . We love staying here.

Lovely 2 night break
We booked a last minute short break with our dog Bear. The Railway Carriages was a lovely quirky place with a fabulous big fully enclosed garden which Bear loved. It was lovely and clean with comfy beds. Great location for New Forest and local beaches. We will definitely come again.

Relaxing quiet place. Perfect.
Loved the big garden so our dog could run and have fun where he is usually kept on a lead on walks. Always clean. Found this place last year and had several little stays and look forward to our next one. Also my husband loves trains so perfect spot.
