TRAM 974 - Watch your step as you board

Oh My - What a Treat! Stay in a Melbourne Icon without the hustle, bustle and noise of the city traffic. This iconic W-class Tram was built in Melbourne before 1952 and was servicing commuters until 1992.

This unique “Tram Stay” is situated on a working farm, home to sheep, alpacas, a vineyard and provides complete privacy in a bush setting and all the comforts of home.

Being of historical significance to our great city, the “Tram” has been restored and renovate with one bedroom, dining area and original seating area with the little quirky signs, shutters and flooring bought back to life – even the graffiti has been left on the outside. The extension of the “Tram” has an open plan living, with lounge chairs, TV, split sytem and wood fire, kitchenette with microwave, Smeg coffee machine, toaster and kettle and a modern bathroom. A small front deck invites you on your unique holiday, to sit and enjoy the sounds of nature.

The surrounding acres of bush are yours exclusively to explore during your stay. Positioned a kilometre from the nearest roads, enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the natural bush setting and the abundant bird life and other native wildlife including tawny frogmouth, parrots, owls and honeyeaters - to name a few. Unwind and relax while savouring a picnic near the pond or a barbeque on the deck.

Situated on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula, with everything at your doorstep - wineries, beaches, spas, tourist attractions.

Linen and towels are provided, BYO beach towels.

Strictly no parties, functions, events or Schoolies

Travelled with partner
Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Only first-world problems: The light switches in the kitchen need labelling I found the wood for the fire as I was leaving. (The fire could have been ready to light) No hair dryer provided Only body wash is provided in the shower The shower tiles were a little slippery, so that a bathmat could have been provided And the decking was VERY dangerous, creating several stumbles. (The edge of the decking and the step at the door should have non-slip yellow tape to indicate the edges. It would not detract from the venue's appeal) BUT Good hot shower Chocolates in the fridge and muesli bars available Lovely birdsong and well away from traffic.

What a unique experience, the tranquil atmosphere being surrounded by bush was so relaxing. The tram and attached room were very clean and well laid out, the fire place was very cosy and the bed was comfy too. Well worth the stay.
