Take a trip to remember when you hop aboard and enjoy a stay at this truly unique holiday home. Sleeping just two guests, the one-bedroom retreat has been created within an exquisite, original Victorian railway carriage. Set at Longdown, within 16 acres of Devon countryside, it is just 4 miles from historic Exeter and 4.5 miles from magnificent Dartmoor.
Take four steps up onto the wooden veranda surrounding this charming hideaway. Enter to find the incredible interior marries gorgeous original features with all the essentials for modern-day comfort. Wander along the hallway to the bijou kitchen/diner where you can whip up delicious meals to enjoy as you gaze out through the window and enjoy the scenery. Head through to the lounge to open the French doors onto the covered veranda to bring in a cool summer breeze and create indoor/outdoor living. Watch the Smart TV in here or listen to your favourite sounds via the DAB/CD player with Bluetooth. When you are ready to turn in for the night, your cosy double bedroom, with its antique brass bed and ample storage, beckons. There is even a modern shower room cleverly fitted within the period carriage. A utility room, with a washer/dryer, can be accessed externally. Unwind out on the covered veranda or enjoy your private garden. Cook out on the charcoal BBQ and dine under the stars. Wander the shared 16-acre grounds as often as you wish. There is off-road parking here for two cars.
While away hours at a time exploring Exeter, with its fascinating shops, array of eateries and famous cathedral. Visit Dunsford Nature Reserve, set on the banks of the River Teigne, 5 miles away. Head 16 miles down to the coast, spending an afternoon at picture-postcard Coryton Cove, where you can swim and potter in rockpools.
