Travel back with someone special to the bygone era of steam travel for a chugging trip through the High Weald countryside, and complement your day out with a classic Afternoon Tea at Mercure Tunbridge Wells Hotel.

Board a heritage steam or diesel train and your adventure will take you through five miles of picturesque Kent and Sussex greenery between Tunbridge Wells West and Eridge and vice versa. The railway has a destination at every station and you’re welcome to hop off as you please along the way, so you can explore Eridge, Groombridge, High Rocks or Royal Tunbridge Wells throughout your trip.

Once you’ve had your fill of scenery, make the 3 mile drive to nearby Mercure Tunbridge Wells Hotel, where a delicious afternoon treat awaits. Sandwiches, scones with cream and jam and more will be yours to savour along with tea or coffee, perfect fuel for relaxing and reliving your scenic journey!
