Great stay
My wife and I spent the weekend at the railway cottage. Kerry and Peter have done an excellent job at preserving this piece of Bunbury history. It’s a very cosy yet spacious cottage and definitely worth visiting at least once. We will certainly be back

Beautifully renovated cottage, warm and inviting. The bed OMG I just wanted to take it home, soooo comfortable. The only thing missing in my opinion was a bbq.

Perfect character house
House was amazingly restored, spotless living and a nice quiet location. Ideal for a small family, would stay again and recommend to others. Kerry was so welcoming too and gave us a nice overview of the history of the house and area on our arrival.

Memory lane
My mother and stayed for 3 nights in this delightful cottage. The owner contacted ma and introduced herself soon after booking, and from the start did all she could to ensure lovely stay. The cottage is quirky, beautifully renovated, perfectly clean with really comfortable beds. Everything you need for cooking, washing, etc., TV, books, games, lovely small back garden. Close to town, beaches, shops, great location. Love the tin paneling. We had a great time, will certainly stay again if visiting Bunbury. Thank you

Great hidden getaway
Amazing property to rent in a very quiet and old part of Bunbury, the property is beautiful restored but still has all the midterm requirements to happily house a family. We will defiantly be coming back!

Perfect holiday cottage
From the warm welcome by Kerry to the thoughtful provision of everything one would need to be comfortable and relaxed, Railway Cottage ticked every box. Perfect location close to the beautiful Estuary and centre of Bunbury, but quiet and surrounded by lovely streets of character houses. A delightful experience.

This is a beautifully restored property which gives you a feel for the heritage and days gone by, but with the added advantage of modern kitchen and bathroom - perfect! Additionally, It is much more spacious in reality than it seems in the photos. The furniture and artefacts made it very interesting and brought the past to life We were very happy to have had the opportunity to stay here. The house is well equipped, has excellent wi-fi and is in a very quiet area but close to all amenities - again, perfect! We can recommend The Happy Wife Cafe and The Waters Edge Restaurant, both of which are close by. Kerry was very friendly and responded to our queries very promptly. We would stay again if in the area.

Beautifully renovated and welcoming
From making the booking through to reception and departure this property and it’s managers’s exceeded all expectations. Beautifully renovated and decorated, this is a large roomy property, well appointed and impeccably clean. Kerry is a wonderful host, willing to go above and beyond but not intrusive. The bed is extremely comfortable, the kitchen has everything one needs. I will certainly be returning to the Railway Cottage.
