We cannot wait for this – it sounds absolutely amazing! Jump aboard The Grand Burleighs Express and yes, it’s actually on a real steam train. Starting at Loughborough Great Central Railway station you’ll enjoy an evening of fine dining and plenty of gin.

There’ll be complimentary arrival cocktails and canapés, backed by a live jazz band providing the entertainment. Then all aboard for departure, sit back with your complimentary Burleighs Gin & Tonic whilst The Grand Burleighs Express ventures full steam ahead towards its first stop for the evening in Swithland. Upon arrival, the scenic views of Swithland Resevoir will provide the back drop for a three course fine dining experience, expertly paired with complimentary wine selected by 45 St Martin’s Vintners.

That’s not all though as the evening continues towards a second stop at Rothley station. Step back in time as the train rolls into the station and enjoy a further complimentary Burleighs Gin cocktail alight the beautifully restored 19th century platform. Following this, the train will return back to Loughborough with coffee & mints before disembarking and receiving your special Burleighs gift back.
