This has been on my bucket list for some time. We had a wounderful 2 night stay and everything was perfect. The accommodation was spacious and comfortable, larger than alot of hotel rooms. You lay in bed at night and could imagine your travelling on a train. The meal was excellent, Beef Wellington to die for, so good and wonderful surroundings in a 1906 Pullman car exquisitely restored. The staff were brilliant and extremely helpful. Alot of history tied up in this place.

Very nice stay for 3 nights in a Pullman car. Very clean and comfortable and great breakfasts. Struggled with the WiFi signal in the car itself, but otherwise all good.

Pullman adventure.

A very different experience, made most enjoyable by the owners and their staff, for whom nothing was too much trouble. Excellent food, delightful surroundings and everything leads to a further visit.

Exquisite and efficient

A great experience. Original idea of using a closed railway station and Pulman carriages works really well. My only suggestion would be the ability to have alcoholic refreshments.

This was a fabulous find. A beautiful setting, and ideal for for a short break. The staff are extremely helpful and very friendly and the breakfast was great. I'm very much looking forward to seeing how things progress with the newest Pullman which is being converted into a restaurant and would recommend a stay here.

The hotel was amazing really lovely quiet place to relax. The local pub Badger was just down the road from the hotel and again the food was very good. The cleanliness of the rooms was excellent, we will definitely be back.
