The Freighter Truck was a lovely place to stay. Very quiet and relaxing. The added touches like the bath on the deck and the bathrobes were a nice touch. There definitely could be some improvements but overall a great stay.

Amazing

The property was spotless and everything in working order. Our favourite spot was the verandah with the comfortable couches. We were planning to sight see, but it was just so tranquil and peaceful that we ended up staying put. I would 100% recommend this property if you need a break, just want to relax and breath in the fresh air.

Warm

Was a great place. Very clean and fresh. Good ammenities and lovely grounds. Was cold due to breeze through windows though. Not the most private for bath. Spacious deck and tiny house. Lovely owner. The weather was great over winter in the daytime otherwise good.

Wow

We were wowed by the effort that’s gone into the truck! All the details like nice shampoo and moisturiser, nice robs, good cookware… all make for a more luxurious stay. We had the most relaxing time lounging on the deck as the sun shone on our legs. Comfy, clean, cosy and unique stay!

About the host

Hosted by Felicity Chapman

We are a family of 3 (xzayde, felicity & max) with two dogs (Nala & bambi) who like to live close to and caring for the earth.

Why they chose this property

We have lived on this land for a long while and had this amazing truck which we planned for 10yrs to convert into a house. Once completed we decided it was a special experience worth sharing. We hope you enjoy its character & charm as a much as we do

What makes this property unique

This is off grid with all the comfy stuff - a lovely massive verandah for dining and lounging, a small but complete kitchen and a lovely big shower and flush toilet. We decided to include board games and things to read rather than TV to help bring an earthy experience as a way to check out from the often fast paced lives we live. We hope this stay brings you relaxation and connection to earth.
