The Railway Carriage is a purpose built Railway Carriage sitting right next to the West Somerset Steam Railway. What could be better for either children or train spotters of all ages than the magnificent steam locomotives passing by. You will not tire of seeing the beautiful steam trains pass by your holiday home.
The Railway Carriage is in a wonderful location for both short breaks and longer holidays, there is lots to see and do in this wonderful corner of Somerset from walking and riding to the Steam railway itself, Dunster and its castle , the caves at Cheddar and Wookey Hole and endless beaches to visit from the surfing beaches of North Devon to the charming Lyme Regis. The views from the Railway Carriage are stunning lying close to the railway line itself, The stunning Quantock Hills fill the landscape, buzzards and sparrowhawks can be seen majestically soaring above.
A stay in a train station offers ultimate flexibility, and this area offers a wide range of attractions, from views, beaches and wildlife to walks, riding trails and a long cultural heritage. Children will love Cheddar Gorge, Wookey Hole Caves and the various farms and zoos in the area. Adults will enjoy the wilderness of Exmoor Park, the magnificent Quantock Hills and Hestercombe Gardens, to name but a few attractions. And as Somerset is a county with sea, hills, moors, rivers and forests there is the opportunity to try any number of activities, from mountain biking, climbing and caving to golf, sailing, canoeing, clay pigeon shooting and fishing. There are lots of excellent pubs and restaurants in the vicinity – try the Bicknoller Inn (a 20 minute walk), the White Horse Inn at Washford, the Royal Oak at Luxborough, the New Inn in Halse, the Carew Arms in Crowcombe, the Rising Sun in West Bagborough, The Augustus in Taunton, and Podshavers near Bishops Lydeard.
