The Freighter Truck was a lovely place to stay. Very quiet and relaxing. The added touches like the bath on the deck and the bathrobes were a nice touch. There definitely could be some improvements but overall a great stay.

Amazing
The property was spotless and everything in working order. Our favourite spot was the verandah with the comfortable couches. We were planning to sight see, but it was just so tranquil and peaceful that we ended up staying put. I would 100% recommend this property if you need a break, just want to relax and breath in the fresh air.

Was a great place. Very clean and fresh. Good ammenities and lovely grounds. Was cold due to breeze through windows though. Not the most private for bath. Spacious deck and tiny house. Lovely owner. The weather was great over winter in the daytime otherwise good.

Wow
We were wowed by the effort that’s gone into the truck! All the details like nice shampoo and moisturiser, nice robs, good cookware… all make for a more luxurious stay. We had the most relaxing time lounging on the deck as the sun shone on our legs. Comfy, clean, cosy and unique stay!
