About this property

Hapuku Carriages Kaikoura

Restored 1920's Railway Carriage, Uniquely Kiwi, Old World Charm and Hospitality. Relax and enjoy the tranquil location. Listen to the Korimako, Kereru and other native birds. The beach is within 2 mins walking distance with hardly a sole on the beach. Relax on the carriage deck with a glass of wine and take in the sea views of the vast pacific ocean and mountains. Enjoy a hot soak in the bath under a Million stars! Bliss!

Fantastic place to unwind

We had a gloriously quiet weekend walking the empty stretch of beach (watching seals and dolphins just past the surf), reading on the deck and soaking in the tub. Highly recommended!

charming and serene

Charming and serene with lots of little touches such as the Kiwiana books and movies and the beautiful home-made preserves for our morning toast, all made this a brilliant place to stay in a stunning location. Thanks.

The Perfect Honeymoon Hideaway

My husband and I were traveling throughout New Zealand for our honeymoon and wanted to stay in a quirky location to add to the experience. This property did not disappoint! The owners were some of the most welcoming hosts that we have ever encountered. They had homemade jam made from fruit grown in their garden waiting for us in the fridge. There was an outdoor bathtub surrounded by fairy lights in the yard behind the train-car. The train-car was beautifully and carefully refurbished with special attention made to maintain authenticity. The pathway to the beach was extremely close-by and private. Overall one of our favorite stays!

Hapuku Railway Carriage

Stunning property, wonderful hosts equals paradise for a break away. This was one of the best places to visit, so close to the beach, not far from Kaikoura but in the most perfect place to relax.

Peaceful

We would not go via book a batch again, too challenging with trying to link in with property directory. We had a lovely relaxing stay.
