Venture back to the golden age of travel aboard the exquisite Saphos Train, adorned with intricate marquetry, plush upholstery and 1st class service. Welcomed by a chilled glass of Buck’s Fizz, toasting to the exceptional white glove service that awaits, you’ll indulge in a sumptuous full English or fish breakfast, alongside a selection of pastries and granola.

 

A champagne reception and selection of expertly crafted canapés await your return, followed by an exquisite five-course seasonal dinner showcasing the best of British cuisine. A Great British cheese board, biscuits, and chutneys are all accompanied by the Sommelier’s choice of half-bottle of wine per person, whilst tea, coffee, and homemade petits fours make for the perfect ending.

 

 

Begin your day at York Station, where liveried stewards welcome you aboard beautifully restored 1920s carriages. You are greeted with champagne as a sumptuous full English or fish breakfast is served, all while an authentic steam locomotive, famously featured on Channel 4, gently pulls you southwards.

 

Savour spectacular views as you travel through historic towns, gentle rolling hills, and the picturesque countryside of North Yorkshire, before entering the dramatic landscapes of Derbyshire. Along the way, enjoy glimpses of charming villages, limestone dales, and verdant valleys that have inspired artists, writers and explorers for centuries.

 

During your free time, you’ll have the opportunity to explore the timeless charm of Bakewell, with its quaint streets and famous pudding heritage, followed by a coach guided tour.

 

Rejoin the train for a lavish five-course seasonal dinner, perfectly paired with fine wines selected by our Sommelier. As the sun sets over Derbyshire’s captivating landscapes, enjoy the effortless grace of steam-era travel – a fitting finale to an unforgettable day curated by Veenus.
