Seclusion, Tram, Native Bush, Wineries, Beaches, Melbourne Icon, Village nearby

Stay in a Melbourne Icon! This iconic W-class Tram was built in Melbourne before 1952 and was servicing commuters until 1992.

Situated on a working farm, home to sheep, alpacas and a vineyard, this is not a cabin in the backyard of a suburban area, it is surrounded by acres of natural bush and parkland providing you complete privacy during your stay with all the modern comforts of home.

Being of historical significance to our great city, the Tram has been restored and renovated with one bedroom, dining area and seating area retaining original features such as signs, shutters and flooring all brought back to life, the graffiti retained. The tram features English designer fabrics, designer wallpaper, antique furniture and a warm ambient setting. The extension of the Tram has open plan living, with lounge chairs, TV, split system and wood fire to enjoy. The kitchenette has microwave, fridge, Smeg coffee machine, toaster and kettle. A modern bathroom with a huge shower, stocked with natural body and hair care products. The front deck invites you on your unique holiday, to sit and enjoy the sounds of nature.

The surrounding acres of bush are yours exclusively to explore during your stay. Positioned a kilometre from the nearest roads, enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the natural bush setting and the abundant bird life and other native wildlife including tawny frogmouth, parrots, owls and honeyeaters - to name a few. Unwind and relax while savouring a picnic near the pond or a barbeque on the deck.
Situated on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula, with everything at your doorstep - wineries, beaches, spas, tourist attractions.

Tara was very welcoming, friendly and commicative throughout the booking and the stay.What an AMAZING place. Totally unique, so well set up and maintained. And very querky! We were only there for a night and didn't travel far from home but it felt like a proper little getaway due to the originality and obvious love that has been put into the little gem. Everything we needed was there, including the resident horse who whatched our coming and going! Thank you. We will be back and have already made recommendations!

Great getaway!!

Our main reason to stay was for our 7yo who is obsessed with transportation. We were allowed to bring him which for us was easy since he just shared the bed with us. Very comfy bed! We explored a bit around the property. The stay itself was short for us only overnight. Not a lot of reception which was great. Cosy enough for the 3 of us. Great little fireplace, excellent during the day. It was just a tad bit cold overnight as the split system didn’t really get to the bed area which is in the tram itself. Great place highly recommend!

Beautiful property

Loved our stay here, they had all the traditional things you want for a night away that many places no longer do. Such as a decent size bottle of fresh milk, free little treats left out, plenty of food quality fire wood, the fire place set and ready to light etc Other things to note was it gets very cold, they have a gorgeous fire place and heating but due to the nature of the tram layout, cold air comes in via the external sliding doors. I suggest a draft stop along these areas to solve that. All in all this place was a 10/10 and we will be back
