All aboard! We LOVED our recent stay at The Station.
Our group of seven (5 adults & 2 children) enjoyed a 2 night stay in May, and we wish our stay was longer!
From the start, our communication with Bridget (host) was great, and her warm welcome was informative and helpful. Bridget had thought of everything for our stay. From marshmallows to toast on the fire-pit, to delicious local essentials for breakfast.
The old Kapunda railway station is huge and has been lovingly and stylishly restored. There were plenty of living spaces, both indoor and outdoor, and we almost lost count of the bedrooms. Although the property is large, it is very cosy and was perfect for our weekend away. The bedrooms were toasty warm and are decorated in a stylish, minimalist manner. There were thoughtful touches like complimentary eyemasks and an ‘Alexa’ in each room. The games room was fun and the kids also enjoyed the wooden train set that was supplied. Other little touches like plenty of throw rugs, spare toiletries and a big bowl of fresh fruit made us just want to stay in all weekend! At the host’s recommendation, we also ordered a brunch box and a DIY pizza pack which was delivered to the door by local providore, Coopers Fresh.
When we did get out and about, we enjoyed walks around the town, some retail therapy in the local shops and a visit to the nearby playground. Pubs and the supermarket are also within walking distance.
We’d highly recommend The Station for a few days away. It’s great for families and groups and we’re already thinking about another visit! Toot Toot!
