Reviews

Immerse yourself in a restful rural getaway and escape the rush of everyday life. Disappear into the heart of the Yorkshire Dales and return for evening starlit soaks in the wood-fired hot tub and cosy down in your own 100 year old freight train carriage. You will be enchanted by its unique charm and delightfully rustic interiors. The views over the fields and far into the distance are idyllic.

As you step into this quaint cabin on the edge of a working farm, you can leave the world behind. Little touches of its railway history are dotted around with vintage signage and will transport you back to the days when Sammi was a working freight train.

Inside, the warm wooden clad walls are illuminated by soft lighting and cast a gentle light over the interiors. Super cosy and inviting there is a double bed with country style linen, a shower-room and a kitchen to prepare a tasty picnic or rustle up dinner with local produce from the three, no less, farm shops in the area.

It's likely you will want to spend time outdoors cooking over the barbecue, sitting at the vintage table made from railway tracks. Of course, you might just want to sit outside, stick a pot on the fire and settle into the slow lane, whiling away an hour or two listening to the birdsong. After all, that's what this place is all about.

Customer reviews

Good or bad, we publish all the reviews left by the guests who have stayed at this property.

Mr Maguire

Absolutely lovely for a break. Owner is great and the hot tub was hot when we arrived (even though we were late). Would definitely recommend.

Miss Nicholson

We had an amazing stay!! The bed is super comfy. The hot tub is lovely. Plenty space for cars. There is also a garden centre nearby which does a really good cooked breakfast. The host was super responsive and left everything set up for easy entry. Overall 10/10 stay I’ve stayed in a lot of similar airbnbs but this one is by far the best. Only improvement would be to have an air fryer rather than mini oven

Miss Jacobs

Perfect stay - the carriage is cosy and perfectly formed. It has everything you need and is so warm even in freezing cold February! Lying in bed looking out over the dales all snug while listening to the rain was honestly idyllic. The location is great too, near some lovely farm shops for food and on a wonderful farm which has a great track you can walk down. Lots of touristy things only a short drive away as well. The owner Tom is really helpful with anything you need. My partner and I have already discussed coming back for another stay :)

Mrs Coulton

Couldn't have asked for anything more during our new year stay. The accommodation was gorgeous and fat exceeded what we expected. The hot tub was lovely and pretty much up to temperature on our arrival which is great. We didn't get opportunity to use it the 2nd night as it wouldn't heat up - we questioned whether this was due to the torrential rain and wind - however, we have no doubt if we had messaged the owner about it, he would have came to help get it heated, but it was NYE and we were happy staying in the train. We hope to visit again in the summer where we can make the most of the beautiful surroundings too! 100% recommend.

Mr Dowdy

Fantastic location and cosy place to stay. Wood fired hot tub was superb with a lovely view.

Mrs Taylor

We had a fabulous stay with lots of walking. Our host was extremely attentive and very welcoming on arrival but also gave complete space during our stay. The location and amenities were fantastic for our needs with breath taking scenery. Everything imaginable was to hand with local farm shops and fresh produce close by catering for our stay throughout.

Miss Dodd

Our stay at Sammi’s Freight train was amazing. A very comfortable experience with everything you’d need for a short stay. The views are incredible and the hot tub was lovely! Deffo recommend.

Miss Hounsell

Had a really lovely stay at Sammi’s Freight Train. It had everything you needed, comfy bed, well equipped kitchen and beautiful views! Highly recommend!

Miss Barker

Absolutely perfect weekend spent at Sammi's freight train. The scenery was beautiful. We went on a big walk and then relaxed in the hot tub. The host was very welcoming and was there to greet us when we arrived. If we needed anything he was on hand to help. Will definitely be back!!

Mrs Roe

Excellent stay loved the peace and quiet! Hot Tub was fantastic! Very small and bijou but a charming space to chill out.

Ms Moore

We had a fantastic stay at Sammi’s Freight Train. Easy to find, well appointed, presented and decorated. Lovely peaceful location and vast field views from the enclosed patio area and hot tub.

Mr Lethbridge

Lovely area, The place was warm and bed comfy. Super place for just a weekend away but to small for a longer stay

Miss Scrimgeour

We had a lovely stay, it felt homely and cosy - perfect for a weekend in October! Everything had been carefully thought and out and the place had everything we required for an enjoyable stay. The host was friendly and approachable but as everything was so clear in the booking we had no queries or questions. The hot tub was great, and it was such a treat that it had been heated for arrival. Would definitely recommend!

Miss Holloway

Our stay at Sammi’s just completely blew away our expectations. Fantastic, helpful hosts who really have thought of everything. Super cosy and relaxing. And it’s right on the doorstep to so many interesting places to explore in the area!

McIver

Everything about the Freight Train has been carefully thought about. It was very welcoming and cosy. It was lovely to stay in the property and sit outside, although the rain slightly put us off. Its located on a working farm so we could easily contact the owners if needed, but because everything had been taken care of for guests, we didn't need to.

Mr Duxbury

Lovely place and surrounding very peaceful. The hot tub it's a perfect bonus.

Mrs Sharpe

Fantastic property. Small and cosy. Fully equipped. Hot tub was a real treat. Perfect for dog owners. Walks straight off the farm. Fantastic walking country. Definitely recommend.

Miss Kermode

We stayed for a couple of nights at end of July. Communication was great from the owner, he called to confirm directions and to let us know the hot tub was ready to go. An overall fab few days away in unique accommodation with wonderful views, we loved it, thank you.

Miss Taylor

The carriage was really lovely and all the little touches were really thoughtful and nice. We really enjoyed our stay despite the weather ??

Mrs Johnson

What an amazing little find! Compact and with everything you could need for a comfortable and relaxing holiday. Best bed we’ve ever slept in!! Private, yet the friendly owners were on hand if we needed anything. Beautiful location and we visited Richmond, Barnard Castle and High Force, enjoying an excellent meal at The Rose and Crown At Romaldkirk We’ll be back for another holiday very soon.

Mr Nelson

The owner was lovely

Mr Dwyer

just loved the whole experience of the freight train. couldn't have wished for a better stay.

Miss Isherwood

We loved our stay. We wanted somewhere to relax and unwind for the weekend. I booked this last minute and couldn’t be happier with my choice. We brought our dog along who can be quite nervy. Our host was super understanding and knew how to handle it. He was over in a flash when I text about the oven not working and got it up and running for us. Lots of lovely walks around that are accessible by car. You can also walk down a mile long path through the farm but unfortunately we didn’t manage it this time.

Mr Cahill

If you are looking for a place to get away from it all, this is the place. Totally relaxed stay in an environment that promotes nature at its best. Facilties are set to a very high standard.Hosts very friendly including Billy the pony. We enjoyed late evening walks then relaxing in the tub with a glass of wine. I would fully recommend ??

Miss Cottrell

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sammi’s freight train. We were greeted on arrival and made to feel very welcome. The owner went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable throughout our stay. Very comfortable bed and good facilities, the hot tub was heated for us on arrival and remained warm for good use all weekend. The stunning views surrounding the property made for a very relaxing stay. We will definitely be returning in the future!
