Whether it be for a camping trip, team-building outing, family fiesta, romantic getaway, or even a business get-together, the newly refurbished train carriage accommodation at the Midgard Country Estate (MCE) promises to present a one-of-a-kind experience to its guests.

Launched with a fresh, vibrant and exciting look-n-feel this past month, guests to the launch event described the facility – which is an addition to the current Midgard offering – as the perfect fun getaway and group weekend spot. The big bonfire cornerstone in the centre of all three carriages, serves for the perfect ambiance that adds a significant spark to the experience, in addition to the priceless childhood memories that come to life, for those that have had the privilege of train rides back in the day.

Trains, planes and automobiles

Ok, so Midgard Country Estate does not showcase planes, but we do boast automobiles and now, even trains.

Yes, trains, not mobile, but stationary trains that have been converted with much love and a lot of attention, from our interior designer, into fully equipped, self-catering units.

The staff are busy getting the trains ready for the next generation of adventure seeking guests. New self-catering kitchens and a dining room are in the making. The ablution blocks have been transformed to pamper each guest with a hot shower and beautiful functional finishes.

Midgard gearing up for very exciting changes in 2019 and a very busy 2018

Words by Midgard GM, Jaco Welgemoed

The general feeling amongst every team member, and guests alike, is that of extreme excitement and buckets full of anticipation!

As many know by now, the refurbishment of our self-catering unit and the trains will commence mid-January for the next three months. The trains will offer something totally unique to the public.

Great ownership amongst the public was generated because they got to choose the new look...
