Train holiday rentals in Western Europe

Stop looking, you've found the perfect spot. Steve was an excellent host - he met us at the carriage and told us about its history. I love drinking Herefordshire Cider and we ordered a few bottles from Steve's orchard in advance.- which was delicious. Perfect for a couple or a family with young kids. Bathroom spotless, kitchen well equpided, Comfy bed, lots of birdsong, everything we needed for a few days in the country.

My husband and I just had our 25th Anniversary. We didn't get to celebrate it. So we went on a mini trip. We only live a half hour away. We wanted to do some things that were close and uniquely memorable. We decided to stay at your caboose and tour Pipers Museum. We ate at the Texas restaurant in downtown Lock Haven. It had a 50’s atmosphere. We also went to the Restless Oaks Restaurant, which also had a unique concept. They had chain saw sculptures of Big Foot, bears and much more. We really enjoyed our stay in the caboose and the area. Can’t wait to stay there again!

A lovely little place, situated a stone’s throw away from the market square. It’s as quirky as you might expect of an old converted train, with lots of small nods to its history for you to find inside, and the pretty outside space will help you feel like you’re away from it all.

Very pleasant stay, lots of space both inside and outside. We where allowed to us the bikes and get some vegetables from the garden. Our daughter loved sleeping in an actual train.

We spent a surprise birthday weekend in the Railcar for my husband. My husband is a a huge rail fan which made this gift a no brainer. We boated, swam, kayaked, fished, hung out by the firepit and made great memories. We even spotted a Bald Eagle soaring over the water.

We had a great stay here. Jan is very friendly and welcoming. It feels a bit like camping, with shower and toilet nearby and no running water, but everything is provided. The recently added airco made it a lovely cool place even on a warm day.

We knew our daughter (4 years old) had off school a couple days around Easter, so we figured we would do a mini family getaway together to make some happy memories. She loves trains and treehouses, so we asked her to choose which one she'd enjoy most. She happily chose the train caboose, and it was a great choice that we all appreciated! The area scenery is beautiful, Decorah has many great shops downtown, tasty restaurants that we enjoyed, and gorgeous scenery all over that we loved seeing as a family. We feel blessed to have found this fun location, and loved its charming look. The horses on the property were a delightful bonus too, as we are a family of animal-lovers.

Graham and Pip’s place is a real gem, the accommodation is gorgeous. In beautiful surroundings, with wonderful wildlife to enjoy, fabulous walks on your doorstep, a place of calm and serenity. So many places to visit are within easy driving reach, whatever your preferred activity there are mountains, canals and rivers to enjoy and there’s no shortage of options for good food. Graham is a lovely host, helpful and welcoming, he makes you feel at home right away. We would love to stay here again.

We had such a wonderful weekend: it was the peaceful retreat we needed to kick off our anniversary week! My wife especially loved getting to read while watching the cows in the pasture and now she also wants a cow farm haha! The place is lovely, very clean and provided opportunities to take a slower pace to the day and just play board games or read or play lawn games while watching the cows or the clouds roll by. Highly recommend this to any couple of family that wants to unplug and reconnect!

Better than expected! So clean and comfortable. Brad thought of everything you might need. We will book again ❤️

The caboose is adorable and Evelyne is a great host. Everything was exactly as described and even cuter in person. This is a great location for anyone visiting TIEC or the local wineries.

Such a unique Airbnb with beautiful surroundings. We had a great time at the tasting room and Brew Haus. All of the staff were wonderful. The food at the Brew Haus was great. Would recommend!

We had a beautiful long weekend at Wagonlea, from the moment we walked in there was a relaxed ambiance with the sheep and goats in the field. Despite being on a farm it feels very private and the host Ruth does not intrude at all. The place was spotlessly clean with a hot shower and all bathroom and kitchen essentials. Saturday we drove into Belper which is a lovely quaint village. All in all we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and felt very relaxed after being there, highly recommend

This was a very unique stay! Even though it is tight quarters there was actually ample room for 6 of us and storage. The beds were comfy and lots of fun details. Kitchen was functional for small meal prep. The oven wasn’t working while we were there, but we made due and were still able to prep meals. Having three full baths in such a small space was a luxury! The outside seating was great, and plenty of room to relax after sight seeing!

Third time’s the charm! We never regret staying at Alex’s place and look forward to our next booking at the train cars. The place is amazing, the views are incredible, and Alex is a great host. If you’re thinking about booking with Alex, do it! You will not be disappointed.

Lovely stay. Just as described. Cosy bed and powerful shower! The garden is beautiful and Denise was happy for our dog Kaiser to run around. We enjoyed the Prosecco and breakfast in the sunshine

We had the best time at Bothole. Everything was as shown in the photos, and James was a fantastic host. I can’t wait to recommend the spot for a seaside getaway.

The caboose is super cute and whimsical. It is a rustic “cabin” but had everything necessary. The couch is uncomfortable so don’t plan a long lazy vacation watching movies. But it is a great jumping off place for the activities in the area. The caboose cupola made for a perfect morning coffee spot and afternoon reading nook!

What a lovely quirky place to stay, beautiful views from the tram and grounds, beautiful sunrise from the bedroom window. Lovely little getaway

I was there with my three children and our dog and we liked it very much, we had a nice time. The surroundings are beautiful and Damian is a very friendly host.

Exceeded expectations! Our family had a great time in May and will definitely go back for a fall trip too. All of the features and details inside the train were so neat. The den / kitchen area was more spacious than I expected. I was afraid it may feel a little claustrophobic but it didn't at all. The specific local recommendations provided were great. We have small children and weren't able to utilize the river much as there isn't flat / cleared ground beside it and the water was moving pretty rapidly during our stay, but we still had lots to do without the river. Definitely worth visiting!!

This place exceeded all my expectations. It was spotless, conveniently located, and I loved the sound of trains passing by. The check-in process was effortless, and the check-out instructions were clear. Finding an Airbnb this great is rare, and I’ll definitely be requesting to stay here again.

Our experience on Karla's train adventure was truly incredible. I booked this trip for my teenage grandson who has a deep love for trains, and it exceeded all of our expectations. The attention to detail and care put into this experience was evident, and we are so grateful for Karla's dedication. Her story is truly inspiring, and we feel privileged to have been a part of it. Thank you, Karla, for sharing your dream with us and creating lasting memories for our family. We highly recommend this unique and unforgettable experience to others. We look forward to returning in the future.

It is difficult to portray with words how outstanding this quirky accommodation is! We were looking forward to the novelty of staying in a train carriage but were not expecting such a high level of comfort, and really spacious living and dining areas, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. The bed was one of the comfiest I have had in an air bnb and the shower was great! So many choices of places to sit and relax, with beautiful views from every window! The location was stunning, and I loved falling asleep to the sound of the river. We also loved sitting in the sun on the deck on the comfy outdoor setting. The train was so beautifully decorated, with quality and character filled furniture. There was everything you could possibly need for a stay, and we couldnt recommend Katie-Anne's property highly enough. Thanks for a holiday we will remember for a lifetime.
