About this property

Experience a unique part of Australian History

Stay in a unique part of Australia’s railway history. Our movable vans were used by workers building the railways. Our smallest van would have been used for accommodation as would the van which is now a bathroom, the largest van was a school. It’s just a short walk into the township of Nagambie. There is plenty to do from walking, fishing, swimming, boating, wineries and restaurants. We have room for boat storage.

Amazing!!!

The property was perfect for us. I could not speak more highly of the hosts. They were so helpful and hospitable. The cabins are really cute. Everything we needed was supplied and if we needed anything, all we had to do was ask. I highly recommend staying here. The property was close to everything and plenty of space to spread out. Thank you for being such good hosts. We will definitely stay again. xx

A very tasteful presented, unique piece of history

Absolutely loved my stay. A quiet pocket in the centre of town. Modern conveniences that don’t distract from the charm of the setting. 3 pretty structures on wheels with flowers beds besides a small orchard & an original cottage. The shower & toilet caravan have sensors lights over the doors & timber steps. Comfortable double bed in the largest caravan with simple tea/toast facilities plus the bonus evaporative cooler.

Room to Improve

Penny was lovely to deal with. The location was perfect within walking distance to Main Street. The cabins were very cute and we enjoyed the outdoor area. However, our stay would have been a lot more comfortable with a few simple improvements. The mattress in the main cabin was extremely uncomfortable, my partner and I kept rolling into the middle so did not have one good nights sleep out of the four we were there. The ad states there is a kitchenette. This implies you can cook something. There are no cooking facilities besides a toaster. There was no heating so it was really cold at night. Having to get up to go to the outside toilet was not fun when it was cold and raining. The water went everywhere in the bathroom when you showered due to the awful shower curtain. The mirror was fine if you're 4ft tall. It could easily be hung at a reasonable height. Don't rely on the wifi, it didn't work at all the entire time we were there. There could easily be a latch put on the inside of the toilet to stop the door blowing open in the wind. Overall, I think this stay would rate as one step above camping. Fine for a one night stopover but thats about it.

Quaint, unique and comfortable

We absolutely loved our stay at Penny’s. It was a unique experience to stay in these historical huts. We loved all the antique and rustic features. The property was very handy to town, being just a short walk to the lake and restaurants. The property was dog friendly which was a big tick for us as we love to include our two dogs in our adventures.

Must see in person

Loved these little cabins, such thoughtful antique details throughout. We came here because it was one of the only dog friendly places and were so surprised, the pictures don’t show how lovely this place is. You get access to all 3 mini cabins, which include all the required basics with a vintage touch. Owner Penny is very friendly, we really enjoyed our stay. Definitely a unique place, very cool!
