At the end of a wooded lane, through a farm gate are two converted 1930's cargo rail carriages. Recovered from the NE Railway, we have retained many original features while transforming these relics into cosy tiny houses.

Carriage No. 1

RAILWAY CARRIAGE NO.1

Carriage No. 1 is a light open-plan space with white-washed tongue and groove walls and reclaimed school gym flooring. The double-glazed doors open onto a little private garden and the meadow with open views across woodland and the National Trust Gibside Estate.

Furnished with a bespoke handcrafted daybed which converts to a full double with comfy mattress and luxury topper, a dining table with stools, equipped kitchen and separate wet room and radiator heating. 

This south-facing Carriage has a private garden with seating for dining, relaxing, bird watching and star gazing. From here, you can wander through the garden gate into the meadow down to the river for some wild swimming, fishing or exploring the endless miles of footpaths and cycleways.

The bed is prepared with a quality duvet, pillows and cotton linens.

Includes portable Wifi, radiator heating, bbq and fire pit, free guest parking.

Carriage No. 2

RAILWAY CARRIAGE NO.2

Carriage No. 2 is the larger of the two carriages with a warm walnut ply walling mimicking the original interior and reclaimed school gym flooring. The double-glazed doors open onto its own little veranda and small garden with outdoor table and chairs. 

The well designed internal space offers an equipped kitchen with cooker and small fridge,
a living space with dining table and chairs, a bespoke handcrafted double daybed with comfy mattress and luxury topper and a separate bathroom with shower cubicle and electric air boost shower.
