About

Join us for an evening of intrigue and opulence aboard the Orient Express!

Our Murder Mystery nights really are like no other. Seated on our stunning steam train and surrounded by 1930’s decor, you will be transported to an era gone by whilst the ‘Whodunnit’ tale plays out before your very eyes!

We begin the evening in style with welcome canapés in our salon carriage with its art-deco bar, the mystery unfolds as a troupe of tremendously talented, professional actors from the superb ‘Highly Suspect’ put on a fully-interactive and engaging performance that is guaranteed to thrill. Accompanied by a sumptuous three-course dinner from our bespoke, fine dining menu, this is guaranteed to be an evening that you, your fellow foodies and super sleuths will be talking about for years to come!

Dressing in the style of the era is very much encouraged.

For upcoming dates and enquiries, please contact the station directly.
