Ride the luxurious British Pullman and see Althorp with Earl Spencer
This unique day out in the beautiful Northamptonshire countryside includes two special experiences exclusively for GH readers. The first is a glamorous journey, as you’ll travel to Althorp, one of the UK’S finest stately homes, on one of the world’s most iconic trains. The 11 elegant Art Deco carriages of the Belmond British Pullman will transport you back in time, making your return trip from London Victoria station as incredible as your destination. You’ll enjoy a welcome Bellini and three-course brunch on board this ‘palace on wheels’, then a Champagne reception and four-course dinner on your return. Your second special experience will be a welcome by Earl Charles Spencer when you arrive at Althorp, which will be closed to the public. Earl Spencer will give a talk and let you explore the house and grounds.
