The Guards Van was very clean and cosy with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The milk and cake on arrival are a nice touch. The only issue was the WiFi signal which is too weak to be able to use from the Guards Van. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Overall it was wonderful, just a few little niggles as in the heaters don’t work in lounge area or main bedroom ( although there was a portable electric heater), the seating area in the lounge is so hard to sit on. And the shower cubicle isn’t made for a 18 stone rugby player. Lots of plus points - the bed was really comfortable, the kitchen area is well equipped, the setting is beautiful and I would love to go again but stay in a carriage not the guards van.

We had a fantastic short break at the Guards Van in October half term. The children and adults loved the novelty of the train carriage accommodation and the way the accommodation is set out like a railway station. The added bonus of the pool and hot tub was great and being able to book this privately for hourly slots. The carriage was well equipped and the home made cake and milk on arrival was a lovely extra. We look forward to returning and trying out accommodation at one of the other train carriages.

The guards van was delightful but for only two of us. The van was made for four to share and with the extra equipment required for full occupation for us it would have been too cramped. Having said that our daughter, husband and two young children stayed in smaller accommodation and survived so perhaps we are too demanding. I would have to say that we were pleasantly surprised in the way the van had been put together.

Lovely place and peaceful surroundings.
Lovely place and peaceful surroundings. Good location in the middle of Suffolk, 40 mins to coast, 60 mins to Cambridge/Norwich. Local attractions within 40 mins. The Guards Van was lovely, very well equipped and a great conversion. The only thing missing in our opinion were some lounger chairs for outside- but this is minor. Swimming pool, hot tub and sauna were a great facility which you can book for private use. Highly recommend, which I don’t usually do.

So I guess as you’re here you are wondering if Brockford Sidings will make a good holiday destination. Short answer: yes! Long answer: a resounding yes! The Guard’s Van has been lovingly restored. From the outside it retains many of its original features from its time on the rails, whilst the inside has been tastefully adapted to serve as a home away from home. At one end there is a children’s bedroom followed by a lounge (with a small foldable table for dining) and then a small but perfectly formed kitchen. There’s plenty of space in the cupboards and fridge to stock up for several days and, as an added bonus from some holiday rentals, it is remarkably well equipped. And not just with pots and pans, crockery and cutlery, but with other essentials - bin bags, washing up liquid, clothes pegs etc. The master bedroom and shower room are actually in a separate wagon linked to the guard’s van by a gently sloping passage (which our children adored racing down). The bed is a good sized double and is pretty comfortable. There’s even a decent amount of storage in clever little nooks and crannies dotted around the room. And we haven’t even discussed the best part of staying at Brockford Sidings! The location is idyllic and right across the field the sidings back on to is the pool, jacuzzi and sauna. Oh, and a tennis court. Each can be booked via an app you can download (with the on site WiFi) for an hour at a time and they are but a two minute car ride from the main site. It really made the holiday to have such a nice place to come home and relax after a busy day exploring Suffolk and Norfolk. Two huge thumbs up from us! Keep up the good work, Judy and Co.

Loved the place, so quiet and peaceful, with only the lovely sound of birds for most of the time. Including some rare ones. Only downside for the older body was seating in lounge area, but then design of a guards van was of course restrictive. Thanks
