A sparkling Bellini cocktail is served, followed by a three-course brunch. As you relax and enjoy the journey, take time to admire the exquisite details of your carriage, whose opent furnishings and craftsmanship evoke the glamour of 1930s “Belle” trains.

On arrival, the day is yours to explore this peacef town with its great Elizabethan walls originally built to keep the invading Scots out. Walk the complete circuit, taking in spectacar views across the River Tweed estuary and Berwick’s three bridges, including the iconic Royal Border Bridge, built by Robert Stevenson.

The town also has an abundance of museums and galleries including the Barracks Complex which charts the life of the British infantryman through the ages. Alternatively, just kick off your shoes and have a stroll along one of the many sandy beaches and breathe in the fresh sea air.

After your afternoon’s sightseeing, return to the train for a champagne reception and settle back into your seat. The highlight of your journey home is a gastronomic five-course dinner, accompanied by our sommelier’s selection of wine.
