Malthouse Farm Cottage Carriage

So unique and a beautiful location - lovingly converted with lots of clever additional tweaks like the bathroom door, hooks and lighting Really easy check in with clear instructions and super friendly staff The owners have fabulous taste in collecting antique items to use in a more modern way - loved the old parking meter in the car park Plus there were cows next door that you could actually tickle - it was awesome!

Nothing to dislike - it honestly was top notch

We loved the location and scenery, it was stunning. The carriage was well thought out and I thought the GWR signs and original fittings was fabulous. We laughed at one sign in bathroom about not using loo whilst train in station lol. Conversation with Jayne prior to visit was friendly and welcoming, and she kindly allowed us to check in bit sooner as I felt unwell.

Could really do with a sink with plug in kitchen for washing crockery and be nice to have bit more washing liquid and a dish scrubber, so people dont have to bring these items.. The shower base was a little univiting and windows a little dirty, but it's a busy farm and lots going on at present on site. Just a suggestion would benefit from a little dustpan and brush and a second chair on veranda, but didn't want to make a fuss. Did think £108 per night was little bit expensive for one night if no breakfast is provided, but the view made up for it These are just little niggles and suggestions, overall it was a lovely overnight stay and would definitely use again overnight.

Small property but as advertised. Very impressed. Everything you need. Amazing.. woke up to views and the cows coming to say good morning.

Nothing was great. (just a an FYI, steep driveway into property lower cars/vans may scrape so just approach cautiously)

We liked the location, the accommodation, the experience

It was very hot. We left the door open until it rained, but couldn’t leave the door open during the night. No windows. The vent was blocked with dirt and didn’t work, so we were very hot during the night. Couldn’t find a fan

Hosts were very friendly. Carriage was clean and comfortable. Very peaceful and beautiful location.

The uniqueness of staying in an old train carriage

Nothing

Everything. The location was stunning, nice, and quiet, and we had everything we needed .

The quirky accommodation, great idea but doesn't work with children. For 2 people probably great.

Wines glasses and mugs baked in dust.. one glass had a thick slime to it, put us off using them. When we went to wash the 2 glasses there wasn't a sponge or scourer to use... Washed with our hands, v.difficult hence we accidentally broke a cup. Fold out bed is ridiculous, put kids to bed then you can't open the door! 1.. Door blocked so can't get out to enjoy a glass of wine 2. Fire hazard as we would not be able to exit the carriage easily. The final straw was one coffee sachet provided!! Fresh milk in the fridge so thanks for that. Impractical, unloved... Would not recommend for the price.
