Historic Cities & Open Countryside

Britain's finest scenic train rides

Britain's most beautiful railway journeys take on an entirely different character when you are seated at a white-linen table with a glass of wine in hand. Aboard the Northern Belle, the view from the window is only part of the pleasure.

Each scenic journey is carefully planned to combine the experience of travelling through remarkable British landscapes with visits to historic cities and celebrated destinations. The Settle to Carlisle line cuts through the limestone fells and viaducts of the Yorkshire Dales. Other routes thread through the Cheshire Plain, the Welsh Marches and the rolling hills of the English countryside.

With brunch served on the outward journey and a fine dinner with sommelier-selected wines on the return, you will quickly understand why these are among the most cherished train journeys in Britain.

What makes these journeys special

More than a view from a window

The best scenic train rides in Britain reward you with extraordinary landscapes. But the journey is only part of what makes Northern Belle's scenic routes so memorable.

The carriages

Each of the seven beautifully restored carriages bears the name of a great British castle. Marquetry panels, mosaic floors and painted ceilings create surroundings unlike anything found on an ordinary train.

The dining

Seasonal menus prepared by the executive head chef are served at your table with crisp linen, fine glassware and sommelier-selected wines — with the British countryside framed perfectly beyond your window.

The occasion

Whether you are marking an anniversary, celebrating a milestone birthday or simply giving someone a day to remember, the scenic journey becomes the celebration itself.
