Swanage Railway Prosecco Afternoon Tea Express APR/OCT 2026

🗓️ Sunday 26th April – Sunday 18th October 2026

Enjoy an afternoon tea with a difference on the Swanage Railway, where the memorable experience replaces a cup of tea with a glass of Prosecco (or soft alternative) to accompany your scones.

You’ll journey from Swanage to Corfe Castle, Norden and back again, where you’ll be treated on board to your afternoon tea with bubbles by attentive waiters, so all you need to do is sit back and enjoy the view of the Purbeck countryside from the comfort of a restored heritage carriage.

The Devon Belle Pullman Observation Car will return in August after it has undergone an overhaul – replacing it for the Prosecco Cream Tea experience is the GWR W80976W Inspection Saloon.

  • Duration: One hour approx.
  • Assistance dogs only
