Summary: We stayed 12 & 13 April. The train carriage is great, with everything you would need in the kitchen & bathroom area. Kevin also allowed us to have our 2 British Bulldogs stay with us. The carriage is fully fenced so they were able to come and go as they liked. Situated in a nice rural setting, but only a few minutes drive into Kaikoura township. Thanks Kevin, we hope to stay again at some stage. Cheers, Julie & Andrew

Summary: Very nice host! A lot of things to play with for children who can also help to feed the animals twice a day. Good location, Kaikoura is just a short drive (approx. 8 minutes by car) away. Obivously limited space inside (e.g. small fridge) since it is a converted historic train carriage; outside fenced area with a play train. If you like Pizza, try "Black Rabbit" in Kaikoura - delicious!

Summary: This is a really unique, rustic setting with great mountain views and within an easy drive of Kaikoura. It is great for kids , with morning and afternoon feedings of the animals part of the unique features of the site. The railway carriage has an enclosed lawn for children and dogs to play. It also has two separate bedrooms (including a double bunk), plus a compact kitchen and lounge, all loving restored to retain its 19th Century character. I totally recommend this quirky, comfortable retreat.

Summary: The train carriage is amazing. A truly amazing fit-out (George Clarke should really pay a visit!) The attention to detail is very impressive (and it was beautifully clean). We absolutely loved our stay and would like to have stayed longer. The farm park is just a short drive from Kaikoura township along a quiet country road. The farm park really added to the experience for our kids. We felt warmly welcomed as guests. Highly recommend!
