SENSATIONAL DESTINATIONS
Where would you like to go? The Midland Pullman travels the length and breadth of Britain, taking in her heritage cities, her beautiful coastal resorts and her wonderfully varied countryside. Our destinations stretch from Penzance to Loch Lomond, and we offer both delightful day trips and unforgettable weekend tours.
BEST OF BRITISH
One of the many things we love about Britain is her rich and varied heritage. Our tours take you to such diverse towns as York, Portsmouth and Edinburgh. If you prefer a more rural holiday, try a trip to the Lakes, the Lochs or the sweep of the Fens. Love the coast? Take the iconic Cornish Riviera route or head for the stunning Cumbrian Coast.
UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCES
Heritage, luxury and incredible destinations combine to create an unforgettable experience. From the moment you step on board the Midland Pullman, you can feel yourself relax, as you are transported in comfort to your favourite destinations. We all love a touch of fine dining – but in a Pullman carriage? That’s a whole new experience.
UNFORGETABLE PULLMAN DINING
On the Midland Pullman, you have time. Time to relax over your food, to chat with your companion as you travel though the beautiful landscape. With this in mind, we have created a sumptuous menu that you can truly take your time over. Our Executive Chef Nick Allen has crafted this extraordinary feast from his favourite British ingredients, and it’s complemented with drinks from our sommelier.
EVERLASTING MEMORIES
Slow down – you’re on the Midland Pullman. You’re in a different world here, where time doesn’t matter, and the journey is as important as the destination. Come with your favourite companions, or bring a book, and relax in our comfortable seats as the countryside gently rolls by you. Take time to savour your food and drink and enjoy every memorable moment.
EVOKING THE GOLDEN AGE OF TRAVEL
There’s train travel, and there’s the Midland Pullman. Come aboard for old-school hospitality and exceptional service, where the pace of life slows down, and you can truly relax. Your refurbished carriage is hauled by a heritage diesel-electric engine, which takes you through some of the country’s most scenic landscapes. Order a Bellini and sit back in comfort, as we recreate the golden age of the railways.
Lovingly restored
CARRIAGES
Our beautifully refurbished carriages hark back to the days when you could truly unwind and enjoy the journey. The comfortable Pullman and First class carriages have leather cushioned seating, generously sized tables, and plenty of room to stretch your legs.
EVOKING THE GOLDEN AGE OF TRAVEL
Once upon a time, train travel was about luxury and comfort, not just about getting from A to B. Our Pullman style dining cars are more five-star hotel than railway carriage, while first class enjoy levels of comfort you don’t experience every day. Prepared to be pampered by our attentive carriage stewards as you make your journey in gracefully vintage style.
IMMACULATELY RESTORED
A team of expert craftsmen worked on our fleet of railway carriages to fully refurbish them inside and out. The train has been upgraded to the highest standards and decorated with the distinctive Nanking Blue livery. It’s also the level of detail that makes a Midland Pullman carriage so special: the leather upholstered seats, our crest on the napkins and crockery, silverware and fine touches that celebrate the Midland Pullman de luxe style.
