23 guests' feedbackWhat a pleasant surprise and unique experience the Butlers Rail antique train car was. The decor still compliments the authentic style of the train car. The good quality linen, glasses and coffee mugs were a big plus. It was one of our most unique stay experiences. The owners have a passion for what they do. Thanks for all the treats, biscuits and wood. We look forward to the next visit to Butlers Rail and can recommend this accommodation experience with full confidence.
This is a fantastic experience. Beautiful decor and very friendly and helpful hostess.
It was an incredible experience, to sleep on a train with a very beautiful view of nature. Jackals' hear and of course farm animals. The hostess receives you kindly and proudly shows the beautiful train that has been so beautifully preserved in its original form.
It was very much enjoyed. Will stop there again if we stay overnight.
Very nice experience. Will definitely visit again.
It was amazing and restful on the farm. Great experience to stay on the train. Had air conditioners. It was very restful and peaceful to braai outside and just relax.
Unique accommodation close to the N12. Train carriage is luxuriously furnished with good quality bedding, towels, air conditioning and everything you could need. Wonderful farm experience, we enjoyed the tranquility. Greetings to Zulu, Biscuit and Sky.
It was a lovely and interesting overnight stay. The hostess was friendly and looked after our every need. We really enjoyed sleeping in an authentic train car again, because as youngsters we traveled a lot by train. Wonderful memories! The wagon has been carefully renovated and furnished with all modern conveniences.
Lovely place to stay. Tranquility by itself on a farm. Hostess goes out of her way to make you feel at home. Will definitely stay here again.
Wonderful train sleeping experience takes us back to steam train sleeping many years ago. Thank you very much very special.
What an incredible experience.
The train truck accommodation is really special and so beautifully furnished. Our children really enjoyed the experience. Would recommend for a family for sure.
Amazing location and great service.
We had a great time!
It was a very unique experience to spend the night in a train car. Very well furnished. Enjoyed the sunset very much. Thank you for braai wood, blitz and grill provided.
We had a very nice stay. Neat place. Well equipped.
Incredible experience, so bitterly unique. Very nice place and had to take a lot of photos to show everyone. Only one does not suggest criticism. We got there quite late and had to go find something to eat. I felt very bad for bothering to enter the premises so late at night. Possible solution is a gate with a code, because I know guests sometimes drive away with a remote. Only a suggestion. Very nice stay.
Children really enjoyed it.
We had a lovely two-night stay in this quaint accommodation concept. Host Deon is very affable and approachable, and added to our enjoyment by taking us on a sightseeing trip around his farm. We appreciated the air-conditioning, more so because this was solar powered. A note if you are two couples travelling together - there's not much privacy, so know each other well enough to be comfortable with that.
Interesting accommodation option that is comfortable! Definitely recommend Butlers Rail.
Wonderful accommodation with excellent owners. The train is original, yet luxurious.
This is a special place, an old rail carriage (ex Drakensberg) has been converted into accommodation. It has 2 compartments with a double bed in each, a spacious sitting and eating area, a toilet, and a separate shower. Both sleeping compartments have a small sink. All in the original atmosphere of an old-fashioned train carriage. Our stay was very pleasant and quiet. The farm is situated next to the N12, and one can faintly hear the road traffic. For train enthusiasts, the bonus is to possibly hear and see a train go past. We were lucky to have seen the Rovos Rail going by.
It was so peaceful and could really relax around the fire and air. It made the whole train car very cold. Everything was there that we needed. 10 out of 10.
