Clients can enjoy their own private room, with luggage included in their tickets. After departing from London in the evening, they wake up in the heart of Scotland. Travelling in the summertime, they can gorge on magnificent scenery while they enjoy a hearty breakfast. What’s more, it’s a civilised, romantic, time-effective and environmentally-friendly way to travel.
The Caledonian Double En-suite is the highest grade available. This has a double bed and en-suite shower room. It comes with priority access to the Club Car, station lounge access and breakfast is included. The Club En-suite has the same perks, with twin beds. The Classic Room has a wash basin but no toilet. These come with an interconnecting option, ideal for families. Accessible double and twins are also available.
