HONEST REVIEW of England’s Most Luxurious Train-The British Pullman

[@leahalexandra3717]

Tbh the price of this isn't THAT crazy for what it is. A night in a luxury hotel can be around twice that price , and that's without all the food and drinks and the day out etc. Would love to do this someday.

[@breakfastattiffanys741]

I feel like if she partaked in booze she would have found more fun and worth ££ I mean they keep topped up the whole day!!?! I'm in haha and P.S she really should have tried the strawberry wine not everything tastes like ethanol Grack!

[@aslik.8102]

@@breakfastattiffanys741 Even without the alcohol the food looked amazing I think, because they clearly had substitutes. And to be honest your comment seems a bit rude, because she clearly stated that she doesn't like it 🙄. No one needs alcohol.

[@breakfastattiffanys741]

@@aslik.8102 No one needs cakes and fancy food either 😂 it's a treat and apart of the ''British Pullman'' experience.

[@katiewinzer4360]

You could try the Caledonian Sleeper train from London to Scotland! I've always wanted to try an overnight train but I feel like you don't get nearly enough luxury for the price. Such a novelty to sleep on a train though!

[@jayj5292]

THATS MY TYPE OF CONVERSATION RIGHT THERE!! 12:48 “if we’re thinking practically…” going deep in the vegetable conversation. I love it when a person can carry such a conversation with me and we can just share our thoughts about whatever the subject is.

[@Rose.373]

I loved this! I would definitely give it a go if I was in England! Suggestion: I would love some more cheap vs expensive hotels in other towns/cities - like Brighton, Manchester etc

[@jensm4026]

I actually don't think that is vastly expensive. Especially if you drink alcohol. Food and drink prices are high at the moment,and you are paying for the experience. I thought you were going to say like £1000!

[@alphabettiispaghetti5380]

I grew up in Oxford (in kidlington, which is the train station you got off at) and went to Blenheim palace regularly growing up. It's a perfect place for locals to take kids for a walk and go to the playgrounds, butterfly house, and maze. I definitely took it for granted and love going back now for dog walks when I visit my family, the grounds are wonderful. A lot of my friends worked there too, and we knew some people who were live-in staff. It's an amazing place, and it's such a shame I don't live near it anymore.

[@MW-qf1kc]

This is exactly how I feel! I grew up in east oxford and my granny would often take me and my brothers to Blenheim - this video made me far more grateful for my experiences there!

[@gegodf2422]

I absolutely love these type of videos, and I think maybe trying an expensive boat ride or another expensive hotel would be awesome!!!! 🧡

[@DrAllyGreen]

Oh I was going to suggest a boat ride too! Or a canal boat?

[@ss-hc7tb]

Do you know the prices

[@lindalyons6198]

I think it's wonderful value. My friends and I have Christmas lunch on the Northern Belle every year. An analysis of the beautiful food, journey travelled, comfort and wonderful service puts the cost into perspective. I only wish they did more trips from Liverpool. The staff are phenomenal.

[@caoilinnannery7587]

Grace I did some digging. The smoked Salmon can be bought in Waitrose, its by H Forman & Son. your Welcome :)

[@notwithoutpizza4702]

Thank you very much x

[@photoboothz]

That train looks incredible! I was just down in Blenheim working as crew for a gig and didn't get to see inside the palace at all so thank you for filming it!

[@MW-qf1kc]

Were you working at David Gray? I went and had a fab time so thank you very much for a brilliant evening!

[@photoboothz]

@@MW-qf1kc We were there the next night (in the torrential rain 😂). I heard the David Gray concert was brilliant!

[@naelissimmer4152]

This was incredible! What a wonderful experience! A private car would have been the ultimate, but you would have missed out on meeting the couple across the way. And their chocolates. Would love to see more of that palace.

[@christinachen3573]

That was so much fun to watch! I would hope they had more non-alcoholic drinks. I wonder how accommodating they are with dietary differences - gluten free and/or vegan? Celiac? You can tell the food part really has me going lol

[@LS-mt2nm]

was just looking on their website because this intrigued me too and I saw that they have plant-based brunch and dinner menus so probably when booking you can give them dietary requirements?

[@AnnaKaunitz]

All middle to high end travel caters to dietary needs. Non alcoholic drinks are standard everywhere these days. There’s a world of great alternatives out there. We’re past mineral water these days. One of the girls in the video also said she was served non alcohol drinks non stop. Their website says “Are all our meals and drinks included? While you are on board your meals and drinks, as described in the itinerary, are included. A selected range of alternative alcoholic drinks are also available for purchase. Can you cater for special dietary requirements such as vegetarian? Yes. If notified at the time of booking, we will do our best to comply with any dietary requirements. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide meals requiring strict religious observance in preparation.” They had loads of plant based menus on their menu and they looked amazing so obviously they’re working with all sorts of dietary needs. They can buy anything they can’t fix themselves. Gluten free and vegan is not odd and unusual these days. I always explain what I can not eat when I book. Be short and specific.

[@42escape]

Love that at 3:07 you're so happy about the plate being warm! 🥹

[@14Briony]

You’d probably love to know that I find it so interesting how I watch & love these types of videos, even though personality wise me and you are complete opposites! I couldn’t think of anything more boring than a train journey, London, touring a palace… BUT I enjoy every single one of your videos and surprisingly loved this! I appreciate how honest you are and I love seeing how much you enjoy the small things in life (or big things like this video!) I just wanted to say, I’ve been watching you for years and we are completely different people and probably have nothing in common, but I love your videos and will continue to watch every single one! Just for context of what I’ve said - I don’t like going around London, I hate museums and anything old fashioned, art galleries bore me, I love alcohol and going out to the pub/with friends… however I love your content and always have done! Keep being you because even people like me who are totally different and can’t relate to things that excite you, I love it regardless!! ❤️

[@sarahembil9538]

I LOVED this video. If I ever get to fulfill my dream of visiting Britain, this is an event at the top of my "bucket list." I was smiling the whole of your journey. Your joy was palpable.

[@salomeydraws]

£400 for two people for a treat day out like this? Definitely worth it!!! EDIT: Oh wait I just checked the website and it's £400 per person or higher. Eee. Oh well, I'm still bookmarking it mentally as something to do in the future, as I'd have to get down to London first and have someone to go with in order for it to happen, haha!

[@BethK1234]

I would recommend Blenheim at Christmas, they decorate the inside of the Palace and have a lights trail through the gardens, this year the theme is the snow queen ❄

[@yourtravelswithbruce]

Definitely 5 Star luxury which does come with a big price tag. The champagne is VC. Having taking this train on June11th with a steam train which is a lunch meal route I can confirm it was excellent. Service was incredible and worth every penny. Food was excellent, we had the same meal and dessert. Seating was comfortable and the staff were SOO attentive.

[@alexiah7301]

I’d be interested to see if any of the dining experiences at the Shard are worth it - especially the afternoon teas!

[@kates7277]

Alternate title: Grace lives it up with the grandparents!

[@emwood96]

£400 is a bargain for all that! It used to cost me around £180 for the train journey back from Bath to Warrington on a standard cross country train when I was a student (and this was 5 years ago so I can only imagine it’s more expensive now). Trains are so expensive in the U.K. when you’re going from South to North and vice versa. So, I’m actually shocked at the price of this, I was expecting you to say nearer to the £1000 mark to be honest.

[@sarahbrunning3917]

Thank you for a lovely video. I always enjoy watching your vlogs, especially when I’m in bed with chronic pain due to fibromyalgia. The train journey looks amazing. Thanks again Grace for all the joy you bring xxx 😘

[@karenramnath9993]

Gracie is good for chronic ailments, she makes me laugh ☺️👍🏻

[@holly_may_x]

You should go to Blenheim palace when the horse trials are on. It's great looking round the house and gardens and watching the horses xxx

[@victordillet672]

Id love to see an honest review of a dinner at the Ritz London!

[@TarunoNafs]

I always remember that bit about riding a train in "Three Men in a Boat" when seeing things related to British train systems.

[@annekafrench7120]

I live about 15/20 mins from Blenheim place, always go there for a walk and slip through one of the side gates for entry 🤫 If you go back, the village next to it Bladon, Churchill is buried at Bladon church so you can go and see that. Also, may be worth staying in Oxford and having a look around the city, quick bus ride in 👍

[@jonap5740]

If you search KZbin for Blenheim Castle, you will find Cotswold TV has a video//doc on it. Honor is just glowing in this video and you are too. Such a wonderful experience for young people. The palace is fascinating. Someone suggested, and I will second, that you go tour Oxford.

[@allisoncooper9681]

Please visit The Hundred Acre Woods outside of the London. Would love to see them

[@JaneD559]

9:54 omg hearing they still work down there reminds me of downtown abbey especially how beautiful the building is!!

[@Eyl279]

Oh I want to go now! Seems like such a lovely experience. And now I’m looking for documentaries on Blenheim Palace. Would love to see you and Honor travel to somewhere different, like Japan or Iceland.

[@janiceburgess5906]

Amazing experience. I’d love all those luxury surroundings. If I ever have money to burn……. I’ve been to Blenheim and it is a fantastic place. Have you done ‘personal shopper’ experiences as a comparison between a large department store like Selfridges and then a designer store?

[@carliem9494]

I saw my curtains .... the navy and cream William Morris print on the chairs in one of the carriages Oh! and there have been lots of documentaries on Blenheim over many years - the most recent included in Phil Spencer’s series looking T historic houses

[@claireanderson5455]

The sleeper train to Scotland budget/ luxury xxx

[@mmaim881]

Love your videos sm, they are so comforting and calming to watch and make me feel cozy, so much love

[@johnrussell3961]

Bellmond where bought by the Luis Vuitton Group. So the Champaign on offer is from the group. The brand used by default is Veuve Clicquot.

[@nameluc955]

Grace! I would loveeee to see the booths take a barge out for the day down the canals!

what a unique experience, thank you for sharing it with us! 💕

[@The_Doggy_Midwife]

I love watching your food videos. So when I saw this i clicked straight away.. then you started talking about how you started watching all the luxury travel videos I’ve been doing the exact same 🤣🙌🏼 Even more excited to watch this now! Love your videos ❤️❤️

[@MelissaThompson432]

That was very interesting, especially since it's highly unlikely that I'd ever spend the money going, myself.... And this way, I get to experience it, anyway. 🙂

[@MW-jc7cn]

Absolutely loved this Grace! Maybe another train (day out somewhere) dining experience soon...🤞😃❤️

[@grizgriz3796]

Ohhh! I'm early! Much love from the Philippines 🥰

I love Blenheim House! It was my house at school, the others being Arundel, Chatsworth and Longleat.

[@elb8605]

I LOVE your channel Grace, these videos are the best, so interesting!! Also… I couldn’t help but think Grace and Honor…? Like, how you would say your honor, your grace to a royal person😂 you guys have probs heard that a million times though lol

[@bernadettehynes-cafferkey3917]

Considering what you got for the money, it was very good value, more than once in a lifetime treat

[@tanja8294]

That looks so beautiful😍

[@Flipflopgirl156]

This looks magical, I might need to start saving up for a bit to do this !

[@MW-qf1kc]

I'm glad you enjoyed Blenheim! I have lots of happy memories there, it was fun seeing you and Honor look round and made me more grateful that I have it close by.

[@RosieRo00]

Loved following you and honor on this fab day out, would love to do something like this one day. a really special treat

[@jackiegallis5200]

Definitely on my bucket list! great videos

[@kerriemaxwell7950]

Would love to see some more of these so can live vicariously, have you ever been to the ritz always wanted to go there. Or maybe you could do one of the mini cruises to the Netherlands etc

[@gracebevill]

Your reviews are always so calming and fun to watch! Like I really enjoyed the hotel one and this was so so calming as well!

[@stellamariesmithson1431]

Love your chance Grace. Thank you for ta us along.

[@nessiemonstercrafts]

Best vege? Hands down the mushroom! You can do so much with them, they are low in calories and delicious!...Who would have thought when I was a kid and grossed out by them that I would just love them as an adult?

[@elliewatson2262]

Ok so I’d say my favourite veg is probably broccoli just because it’s so versatile. For example: roast dinner … broccoli. Stir fry … broccoli. Nandos … tenderstem broccoli. Tell me a dinner time dish you wouldn’t eat broccoli. Go on I dare you. You can’t. It’s simply the best. However my second fave would be cauliflower and third cabbage

[@kadz9992]

That looks stunning

[@DeeDee-xr9ml]

That looked lovely and it's something I'd love to do in the future.

[@janecox4173]

it would be lovely if you review the 'piano boat' sometime. They have a youtube channel (the piano boat) They are the loveliest people. Full size piano on a boat which they had to put on through the roof. Reasonably priced

[@bubbleclayshop8780]

Loved this Grace such a cute fun entertaining interesting video!

[@TheHattie10]

Is it unlimited Champagne or a set amount included? Thanks!

Where is your dress from?? It’s beautiful

[@Ayesh_16]

You should do more of these luxury travel reviews maybe even add on some luxury hotels in London. I can always trust you to be honest

[@mothmanlol6263]

Best vegetables: cucumber, seaweed, romanesco, cabbage, any and all legumes, onions, potatoes, carrots and parsnips
