Join the British Pullman on an enchanting journey to Simpsons’ Wine Estate in Kent. Experience the pure luxury of the restored carriages, where you'll be treated to exceptional cuisine, award-winning wines and beautiful British scenery.
Your Journey
Your adventure begins as you board the British Pullman at London Victoria Station. Sip on a refreshing Bellini and observe the exquisite details, from the iconic uniform of your steward to the impeccable craftsmanship of your 1920s carriage. Relax in a comfortable armchair at a pristine table with a scenic view as you journey towards the idyllic Elham Valley, nestled in the North Downs. Enjoy a delectable three-course brunch and take the opportunity to slow down, reconnect, and embrace the journey.
Disembark the train and board a private coach for a brief journey to Simpsons’ Wine Estate. Your tour begins with a stroll through the picturesque village of Barham, leading to the Roman Road vineyard on the estate. Explore this state-of-the-art winery, where a guide explains to you the Great British method of winemaking.
Next, make your way to the Glass House Tasting Room, offering a panoramic view of the winery, for a delightful tasting session featuring Simpsons’ current releases of sparkling and still wines. Conclude your visit with a thrilling descent down the 9m-long 'Fruit Chute' helter-skelter.
After this captivating experience, reboard the coach for the return journey to the station, where both the train and a chilled glass of something await you. Onboard the British Pullman, relish a sensational three-course meal accompanied by half a bottle of wine, followed by coffee and petits fours before reaching London Victoria.
