A quirky experience at Coalport Station Holidays

Coalport Station Holidays offers exceptional self-catering accommodation in two railway carriages in the grounds of the old Great Western Railway at Coalport. Come and stay in one of the renovated railway carriages and relax in comfort surrounded by two acres of beautiful woodland.

From the outside, the carriages look like historic GWR rolling stock, but it should be noted, on the inside, they offer the ultimate in modern holiday accommodation. This peaceful setting is also within walking distance of excellent quality food and traditional ales.

Call Cruckburn your home for the night

Cruckbarn

Here you’ll have an unforgettable holiday in this quiet, hilltop, rural retreat. Enjoy breakfast with beautiful views over Shropshire and Herefordshire, and out to the hills near Ludlow. Roam Cruckbarn’s woodland and field, or explore the country walks beyond.

Stargaze at night by the campfire, or cosy up inside around the log-burner. Under sumptuous linen, drift off to sleep in one of 2 bedrooms. Cruckbarn was created from 100 oaks that grew in the surrounding ancient woodland, in fact it was built by hand! It has been a “grand design” and something of a labour-of-love. Cruckbarn sleeps 4-5 in a comfortable king, double or single bed.
