Sandford Station Railway Heritage Centre, located in the iconic old station booking office at the heart of the St. Monica Trust Retirement Village. Closed now until April 2022.
The museum wasn't open and they have now built a retirement village around it. However, there is a lovely cafe and everyone is so friendly we stopped off for a cuppa tea. This is on the strawberry line route and makes a perfect stop off for cyclists and walkers. Lovely atmosphere and very friendly.
Lovely place to stop if cycling / walking down the Strawberry Line. There is a cafe run by very friendly volunteers serving hot drinks, snacks and ice cream. The coffee cake was pretty good! The seats are carriages that form part of the train in the station. There is also an interesting display in the old Grade 2 listed station building. Definitely worth a stop if passing through to assist with contributions to keep this excellent station in use.
Wonderful place.so full of history. Two gentleman that were on were fantastic telling me my partner and his dad the history. Brought some fantastic railway memorabilia. A great stop off if using the strawberry line.
We really loved this place (2 adults, grandparents, 2 kids aged 7 and 5). The volunteers were lovely to the kids and us. Got a toy track out for them to build and play with! Chatted to us and spent time being friendly and helpful. Lovely hot drinks and cake :-) Very informal and relaxed atmosphere. Lots of great memorabilia and factual info for train enthusiasts! Would definitely return!
Great place to stop off for cake and ice creme! And interesting place if you like trains.
