Christmas Countryman

Three-course Christmas lunch served aboard a steam-hauled heritage train through the Derbyshire countryside.

Sit back in one of the restored heritage carriages as a steam-hauled train travels between Wirksworth and Duffield, while you tuck into a three-course Christmas lunch. The festive menu offers a choice of prawn cocktail or tomato and basil soup to start, traditional roast Christmas lunch with all the trimmings or a brie and cranberry parcel for mains, then Christmas pudding with brandy sauce or chocolate orange gateau for dessert, finished with tea or coffee and after dinner mints. It's a relaxed way to start the festive season with family or friends, combining a proper sit-down Christmas dinner with the novelty of heritage rail travel. Trains depart Wirksworth at 12:45 and tickets start from £60 per person.
