Britannic Explorer
The Britannic Explorer, a Belmond train designed by Albion Nord, is the first luxury sleeper train in England and Wales and is set to be on the tracks in July 2025.
Quintessentially British. The characteristic wit and charm of British culture is apparent in an interior which is at once sophisticated and playful. Bold and opulent fabrics, textures and patterns create a space as layered and inviting as a luxurious British home, with hidden elements that surprise and delight.
Connection to Nature. The Britannic Explorer provides an opportunity for wholesome escapism, with routes from city to country that allow guests to immerse themselves in nature. The use of good quality, natural materials, earthy colour palettes, and planting offer a link between the interior and surrounding landscapes, inviting guests to experience the outdoors in comfort
Stories Old and New. The design honours the legacy of train travel and British craftsmanship, blending traditional techniques with modern bespoke pieces. Artfully sourced antiques are repurposed and historical details infused with fresh energy to tell the story of British heritage while setting the stage for new experiences.
