The property was amazing, centrally located and close to all Hunter Valley activities. The carriages were well furnished and had everything you could need. The fireplace was warm and everything had a cozy feel. The perfect place to stay for couples, families and groups. Marie was lovely and always friendly!

Luke Australia

Everything it was an awesome experience. The hot air balloons going over the top of us. Wild like everywhere and dog friendly awesome.

Bradley Australia

We loved the history and attention to detail throughout the Royal carriage. Why would you book another same-old motel when you can stay in a heritage train carriage?! Whether you're a rail or history enthusiast, or simply looking for a romantic getaway with a touch of class and nostalgia, then Krinklewood is the place for you. Marie is a very experienced and hospitable host who went the extra mile to ensure our stay was special and that we got the most out of our time away. The close proximity to so many vinyards in Pokolbin is a great bonus. We hope to be back!

Lauren Australia

Staying the the train carriage took you back in time. Very comfortable and for train buffs like us it way great.

Very friendly staff, it was a quiet lovely location away from the main road in a tranquil bush setting. Fun to see the different themed train carriages, and more being done up.

Diana Australia

We stayed at Krinklewood for my partners birthday and we had a great time! The train carriage was quirky and wonderful, great facilities and super friendly staff. Marie was helpful and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. :)
