In the Golden Age of Travel, beautifully appointed “Belle” trains traversed the country, offering unrivalled comfort and style.

The Northern Belle recaptures the era of rail travel and its most glamorous. What else would you expect from the previous sister train of the legendary Venice Simplon Orient-Express?

With exquisitely decorated carriages, sumptuous cuisine and liveried stewards, each journey is as exciting as the destination. As well as conjuring up the past, our trips are a celebration of the present.

As you sit back in your plush armchair, prepare to glide through stunning scenery, indulging in contemporary dishes and outstanding wines. Departing a variety of regional stations, the train offers day trips to Britain’s best-loved destinations.

Relive the era of luxury rail travel in supreme style as you travel through spectacular countryside to compelling destinations.

Condé Nast Traveller | Readers’ Choice Awards 2023

The Northern Belle has been voted one of 'the best train trips in the world' by readers of the prestigious Condé Nast Traveller magazine for the second consecutive year in a row. 

The magazine said: “It’s all about the food – and the scenery. The meal services are exquisite, offering fine dining crafted mostly from UK suppliers so you can enjoy classic British fare as the heaths, meadows and dales roll on by.”
