    We had such a relaxing weekend at the little red rattler retreat Such a unique experience You could easily lose track of time just relaxing Bring a book, enjoy the quiet time End of an evening, you can sit around and enjoy the fire And if you like traditional country pub food, the local pubs are five minute drive away And don’t forget the loo with a view Thanks for a great weekend

    Great location for visiting the local wine regions of Rutherglen, Milawa, King Valley, and historic towns like Glenrowan. Our caring, kind, generous and knowledgeable hosts, Barrie and Pam went over and above to make our 10 day stay comfortable and enjoyable, without being intrusive. My partner also enjoyed meeting the cows on the property.

    We just loved our short stay with Barrie and Pam at the Red Rattler. The train carriage itself is so charming and comfortable, but what really made our stay was Barrie and Pam's hospitality. Every detail was taken care of - Barrie ensured the outdoor fire was lit for us when we got back from the pub, Pam's home made jams in the fridge were delicious, and care was taken to ensure we were comfortable through our stay. The camp kitchen is well equipped and we made ourselves a full dinner one evening, enjoyed outside by the fire with Tom the cat for company. Would definitely return!

    If you are looking for something completely different this is for you. One long mid 1900s red train carriage divided into 3 parts. 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. You can book one or both bedrooms (the first bedroom includes a kitchenette.) There is also a camp kitchen outdoors nearby. While the facilities are fairly basic they are comprehensive, and help is readily at hand from Barrie and Pam. The sound of the myriad birds in the early morning is a delight. Very peaceful, and the nearby Boorhaman Hotel is a bonus for a surprisingly good meal.
