What’s it like travelling on a luxury train?

We got a taste of what it was like to travel on one of these fantastic luxury train experiences when we visited Grosmont for the Pullman Dining experience. we enjoyed a three course meal whilst passing across the North York Moors taking in beautiful countryside scenery. The experience allowed us to chill in a vintage carriage, sipping on a drink whilst taking in views. It took around three hours and was an experience that we’ll keep with us for a long time.
