You wake to the rhythmic clatter of a passing train — closer than you'd expect, but somehow part of the charm, like staying in a cottage that's grown roots beside the tracks.
Railway Cottage offers glamping pods and chalets for those who want a roof and four walls without the fuss of canvas. It's a quirky spot for couples after something a bit different, or small families who like their creature comforts with a side of railway nostalgia. Dogs might be welcome — best to ask when you book — and the name tells you everything about the location, so if you're a light sleeper or rail enthusiast, you'll know which camp you fall into.
Facilities aren't widely advertised, so it's worth checking what's included with your stay. Campfires are a maybe — ask on arrival if you're planning to toast marshmallows. The vibe leans cosy and unconventional, the sort of place where the quirk is the point and you'll either love the trains rumbling past or find earplugs become your best friend.
