Brunel Boutique Holiday Park

Lovely stay over Christmas everything we needed was there. Lovely and warm.

Carriages finished to a very standard very impressed

Another fantastic stay at Brunel Holiday Park, in Carriage 3 this time. Lovely welcome pack, Carriage was lovely and clean, 2 adults stayed, 1 in the double and 1 in the bunk room, both extremely comfortable and no bad backs. All the facilities you need in the kitchen. Water lovely and hot for the shower. Always a pleasure to see Josh and have a catch up. See you at Christmas for another weeks stay.

Great facilities, spacious carriage and the under floor heating was a big plus

Such a unique experience to stay in a railway carriage.

We really enjoyed staying at Brunel Boutique Holiday Park this October. We stayed as a family of 4, with an 8 year old and 5 year old. The accommodation was lovely and clean. The novelty of being next to the Trainline, staying in a train carriage, and the noise that comes with it did not wear off and made it a very unique special holiday. The on site support was brilliant and friendly. The location was also great. We will definitely be back and would highly recommend it.

Much better then years before kitchen well stocked with dishwasher, hob, oven, microwave, toaster,kettle, fridge, underfloor heating was great

Very high standard of fixtures, fittings and furniture.

Great holiday. Staff polite and friendly. nothing to much trouble. Clean throughout. Some basic food like bread was waiting for you. Faultless

The carriage was well equipped and was a good size made a nice base for a week away. One of the beds had sand on it on arrival but otherwise clean. It was very close to the beach, snack shops and train station and a little too close to the train line which rumbled when the fast trains went past as early as 5:30. There was no WiFi provided even though it was in the description, we were emailed a few weeks before to say there wouldn't be any. Mobile signal was really bad onsite too. Beds were comfy and things like tea bags and washing up liquid were provided.

Wonderful place to spend a weekend with family. A bit more storage would have been good along with another shower as it took a while for 6 people to get ready. But loved all the trains passing by.

Very comfortable accommodation. Very close to the beach and facilities. Would be ideal for all ages.

The novelty factor of staying in the train was the reason we picked Brunel Boutique Holiday Park. Staying in the carriage is more spacious than you would think! With two bathrooms and space around beds which you do not get in caravans and lodges I have stayed at in past. You are very close to places to eat, the beach as well as the fair. The site is not quiet, you are very close to the train track, with trains rushing past from very early in the morning till late into the evening, but for us that was part of our train holiday experience. You are also close to the fair and can hear screaming for the pirate ship and other rides until it shuts after 9. We loved our stay, but our one major complaint was that a few weeks before the trip we were informed that the site no longer had WiFi. This is one of the features we look for in holiday accommodation as in our experience mobile signal can be bad (and it was) and you often need it to look up and book activities, check the wether etc. We were given no explanation why this had changed since booking and offered no compensation for the change in an advertised facility.

Great place near a railway station and plenty of furcilties.

Holiday of a lifetime most incredible time

This is a quirky place to stay. Everything has been thought out well with a well equipped kitchen with a lovely welcome pack, wonderful shower and comfortable bed. It is well situated with the beach, takeaways, pubs and supermarket all within walking distance. The site is clean and pretty and well cared for - I would highly recommend 

We had the most brilliant time in Carriage 2. The location could not have been more perfect! Everything you could possibly need is within a quick and easy distance. The children absolutely loved staying in the train and watching trains whizz past the windows. Highly recommended..

We really enjoyed our time here, have already decided that we will return for another holiday here.

Wonderful accommodation everything you need is included. Clean warm and great setting near to the beach. We had a great new year break here

As above -what an amazing, comfortable and fun family holiday!

Can not fault anything , there was everything there you need plus a few extras. our little grandson loved watching the trains go by .

It's important to realise that a track side carriage is exactly that - trains do pass by very close and usually very quickly. Only stay here if you like trains! We loved it, you soon get used to them passing by and there's little movement after midnight.

If you like trains you will love this, the location is excellent with a great view of the sea, and the busy main railway line 20 feet away. The bed in the main bedroom is too low, it's a struggle to get up from and the mattress is foam which for me is too hot, apart from that there were some lovely finishing touches, like the mirrors, the ones in the bathrooms magnified far more than I was keen on!

This carriage has an excellent sea view. Layout is not the best one. Facilities were all very good.

Lovely carriage, clean and bright and comfortable. Everything you need. Very helpful staff. Well kept grounds. Lovely little welcome touches. There were a lot of train to see out of the window. Super location for walking to the beach and a short cycle to sainsburys. Went for a week in August myself, husband a 4 yr old and a 6 yr old. They loved it.

One of the best holidays we have been on. Going back in November carnt wait.

Great quirky place to stay. Good quality furniture inside the carriages, beds were comfortable and good sized shower and bathroom. Kitchen had everything you needed if you wanted to prepare meals or snacks. Under floor heating is available if needed. Nice welcome pack of bread, cheese and wine when we arrived. Would stay again but they are a bit expensive for what you get.

Had a great week staff very friendly and helpful. Main railway line is very close with trains passing at 80MPH. If you like trains you will lovely this place. Accommodation was great and very clean.

Thoroughly enjoyed by all participants , the park was tidy and the caretaker was always helpful and polite, willing to go beyond remit .

We had a fantastic holiday here at the end of April - The accommodation was well planned and comfortable. We didn't expect a basket of essential needs in the kitchen but was very pleased to have them. The beds were comfortable and the decor (curtains etc) very pleasing. The pleasant young man in charge was most helpful and we would love to have another holiday here. It was great to watch the trains passing the windows. and the views. It has taken a long time to leave these comments as I missed the email due to other commitments. We had a slight problem with opening the 'front' door but it didn't interfere with our enjoyment

Spent a fabulous week in carriage 5. The accommodation was clean and well laid out, with plenty of space for the 5 of us. We were welcomed with some grocery basics bread, crackers, cheese, bottle of wine. milk, tea and coffee. This was a nice touch. The views of Dawlish Warren were fabulous from the carriage and so easy to access the bus and train, just a short walk away. The walk along the front into Dawlish didn’t disappoint either. Of course the main train line is outside your window but added to the holiday for us. It was quite strange not hearing them on our return back home. Josh the on site caretaker was friendly and helpful. Thelma the cat needs a mention too, she keeps a close eye on what’s going on around the place. Would highly recommend and hope to visit again. ?

Excellent location.

Lovely holiday place been to Dawlish Warren many times second time staying at Brunel and what a difference been lovingly restored. There is also a laundry room you can use handy if you have small children. Lovely beach, fun fair, crazy golf and go carts all on the large green area that the kids love to run about on. Lots of bars and a few shops in the village but the train station is easy access and you can get anywhere up and down the coast if you want a day out, Torquay, Paignton etc.

We loved our break! Quirky accommodation trains go by right next to the carriage which I felt added to the unique stay. My children enjoyed playing outside the layout made this safe. Kitchen was very well stocked plenty of equipment. Great lay out of coach my aunt and mum had own loo and bedroom whilst the family were at the other end. Lovely and clean and alot of little touches washing liquid, bread, cleaning spray. Beach short walk, fun fair, shops. Everyone super friendly happy to have a chat and ready to help, lovely family vibe. Carriage 5

Had a fantastic short holiday here. Carriage very well-equipped and spacious. Two bathrooms, plenty of hot water and nice and clean. Great location, with loads on the doorstep. Great to be right next to the railway. Passing trains did wake me a couple of times a night but for me, worth it to be so close to the line and beach. All in all, memorable holiday and great location.

It is in a great location, close to all the amenities and beach. The carriage was clean and tidy, well stocked and the welcome gifts were a treat.

Quirky accommodation, literally trackside, at the seaside - what’s not to love! We had a wonderful time.

We had a fantastic time. The train was lovely. The surroundings tidy. Our children loved watching trains past the window. We arrived to some bread, crackers, biscuits cheese, milk and wine. We would definitely recommend and would definitely book in the future
