Nestled in the rolling West Sussex hills, the cathedral city of Chichester is famed for its Roman history, internationally acclaimed theatre and vibrant cultural scene. Encircling the centre is an almost complete ring of Roman walls: four main Roman streets – conveniently called North, South, East and West – lead out from the central Market Cross, defining the shape of the city. Within these spaces are an enticing mix of Roman ruins, Georgian architecture, leafy parks and bustling shops and cafes.
Such a city deserves a stylish arrival aboard British Pullman. Begin your journey at London Victoria Station as you board British Pullman and take your seat in your sumptuous carriage. Note your steward’s iconic uniform as you’re guided to your comfortable armchair at a pristine table with a view. Over a sparkling Bellini cocktail, take time to absorb the authentic 1920s décor and craftsmanship, with vintage details ranging from polished marquetry to brass luggage racks. Savour a delicious brunch as the train makes its way through the lush Sussex countryside, in search of the Historic Chichester.
On arrival, the town centre is just a short stroll away. Its compact layout is ideal for exploring on foot. Amble through the streets and stop to peruse the boutique shops, or perhaps for a coffee in one of the many independent cafes. Soak up the Norman and Gothic architecture of Chichester Cathedral or head to the adjacent Bishop’s Palace gardens to sit back and relax in lovely verdant surroundings. A short walk away, at Pallant House Gallery, admire an absorbing collection of modern British art from 1900 onwards.
Ten minutes prior to the scheduled departure time on your ticket, please make your way back to Chichester Station. Shortly after reboarding British Pullman, you’ll find yourself with a glass of chilled champagne in hand, which is soon followed by a sensational three-course dinner. A bottle of our sommelier’s choice of wine accompanies the seasonal menu, with coffee served before you arrive back in London. Your Historic Chichester luxury journey has now come to an end ─ we hope to see you soon aboard the British Pullman.
