Wealden Rambler Afternoon Tea

A traditional afternoon tea as you steam through beautiful countryside of the Sussex Weald.

Step back into the elegance of the 1950s as you travel through the beautiful Sussex countryside in our lovingly restored British Railways carriages hauled by a vintage steam locomotive. During your journey, enjoy a delicious selection of freshly prepared finger sandwiches, decadent cakes, and warm homemade scones with jam and clotted cream accompanied by tea and coffee, all served at your table by our attentive uniformed stewards.

Why not make your afternoon tea extra special with a glass of Blanc de Blancs sparkling white wine from the Bluebell Vineyard, which can be ordered in advance to be on your table when you board. A limited range of drinks can also be ordered in advance or on the train.

The round trip to East Grinstead and back lasts approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes, offering a relaxing and memorable way to enjoy a classic afternoon tea

“Had afternoon tea on Wealden Rambler. A wonderful experience with an excellent selection of finger sandwiches, scones and cakes. All the staff couldn’t have been more obliging. A nice leisurely nostalgic journey through the Sussex countryside.”
