Steam Train Carriage was the perfect first getaway from our new busy business. The Carriage itself was beautifully presented and really well converted into a self-contained cabin of sorts. It was romantic, warm and functional not to mention dog friendly. We brought our two large dogs and they couldn't have been happier running around the secure block. The fencing was great for them (large dogs who don't dig and just need a physical barrier...not escape artists by any means) and we felt that they were safe and secure. The weather wasn't fabulous on our getaway, but that didn't matter. We made it to the brewery with the dogs for a lovely lunch and did some passive birding from the porch. The location of Steam is fabulous, next to the Otways, but we were very happy staying in with the average weather! That fireplace got a workout while we were there, but there were also backup electric heaters if you aren't the fire-making type. Everything was thought of and nothing was missing. Our favourite touch was a little brass sighthound figure in the window. Very sweet. Our pups enjoyed being curled up by the fireplace when they weren't exploring the yard, enjoying the smells of the great outdoors!

All our correspondence with Fleur was absolutely amazing too. She prepared us for everything and communicated well before we got there. a wonderfully positive first AirBnB experience! Thanks so much!
