ROCK legend Noddy Holder is joining Cheshire children’s charity, The Children’s Adventure Farm Trust, for a fantastic trip to Edinburgh on board the Northern Belle in October – and they have just six tickets still available.
On Saturday, October 1, guests will step back in time to an era of sophistication and elegance on the Belmond Northern Belle, sister train to the world famous Venice Simplon Orient Express.
The day will begin bright and early for brunch with a Bellini served by stewards who treat every guest like royalty.
The journey will begin at either Manchester Victoria (6.30am) or Wilmslow (an exclusive CAFT pick up point) at 6am.
Guests will then travel to Edinburgh in style taking in the breath-taking scenery with views of the Pennines and Lake District en route.
Upon arrival in Edinburgh guests can either join one of the organised trips to Edinburgh Castle or the Royal Yacht Britannia or they are free to enjoy Scotland’s beautiful Capital city at leisure.
After a five hour visit to Edinburgh the train will return guests in style to either Wilmslow (10.45pm) or Manchester Victoria (11.15pm).
The journey home will include a four course fine dining experience with champagne and wine.
Noddy and his wife Suzan will be joining an exclusive CAFT carriage for this extra special day raising funds for terminally ill, disabled and disadvantaged children from all of the North West.
Noddy is calling for supporters old and new to join him for this fantastic event.
“This is going to be such a special day in the most beautiful of surroundings," he said.
"The Northern Belle is a stunning train and guests will be treated like royalty by the fantastic stewards. Suzan and I are really looking forward to welcoming everyone on board for a fabulous evening which is sure to be a real treat, whilst raising vital funds for our charity.”
Tickets are £295 each with a £45pp surcharge to join the organised excursions to Edinburgh Castle or Royal Yacht Britannia.
Timings are approximate and may be subject to slight change.
Due to the seating arrangements on board the train, tickets must be booked in multiples of two.
