The property is very comfortable and had everything I needed. Having a full size freezer allowed me to get some ice cream. It was surprisingly roomy on the inside especially because it was just me.

We really appreciated the vision (and hard work) that went into creating the tiny house in a train. The extra touches of organic jam, honey and eggs from the property were a bonus.

The train has a sofa bed available at an extra cost. The train runs on solar power, all your water is spring water and is a great example of up-cycling and recycling. The tiny house train is located on a 10 acre/4.2 hectare rural organic blueberry farm and was restored in 2018 and turned into a tiny house in May 2019. There is a cozy log burner plus electric heater and the TV is a smart TV and has Netflix supplied . I think the photos say it all but better. I can collect you from Silverstream train station if required. As this site has no facility to charge for the sofa bed you will need to pay me on arrival either via cash or bank transfer. Whitemans Valley is a rural area where you can enjoy the country peace and quiet and enjoy walks in the countryside if you want. No light pollution and beautiful filled skies for miles. Our property offers a unique off-grid experience in a peaceful natural setting. To ensure it's the right fit for you, please note: Access is via a steep, winding hill road that some guests may find challenging if they are uncomfortable driving narrow or hilly roads. The accommodation features a composting toilet rather than a conventional flush toilet. While it is clean, well maintained, and easy to use, it is different from what many guests may be accustomed to. This property is best suited to guests who enjoy rustic, eco-friendly accommodation and are comfortable with the realities of staying in a natural, off-grid environment. If you have any questions about the access or facilities, please feel free to ask before booking. We want every guest to have an enjoyable stay and to be confident that our property meets their expectations. There is no public transport to the train so your own car would be necessary though I am more than happy to collect you from Silverstream train station up until 6pm.
I am an organic PYO blueberry farmer with a few cows, chickens and bees on the farm. I spend most of my time down in the blueberry field pruning and such like so can be found down there if you need me. There is plenty of space here to just relax and enjoy the surroundings. As this is a small working farm there are sometimes tractor, chainsaw or mulcher noises. I enjoy a good laugh but prefer my privacy in the evenings but am always available if you need anything. Cell ph coverage is only Spark, skinny and Vodafone not 2 degrees.
Whitemans Valley is a rural area where you can enjoy the country peace and quiet and enjoy walks in the country side if you want. No light pollution and beautiful star filled skies for miles. Restaurants, cafes and takeaway places are all in Silverstream and there are plenty to choose from as well as a New World supermarket. Popular Brewtown in Upper Hutt is only a 20 min drive away.
