🚂✨ Did you know you can take a NIGHT TRAIN from London to Cornwall? ✨🌅

Yes, you can! Skip the traffic and fall asleep in bustling London, only to wake up to the stunning Cornish coast. The GWR Night Riviera Sleeper is a comfortable and convenient way to travel from London Paddington to Penzance, giving you an overnight escape to Cornwall’s beautiful beaches and countryside. 🌊🏞️

🌙 The Journey: The train departs from London Paddington at 11:50 pm, and after eight restful hours, you’ll be greeted by the Cornish sunrise 🌅. With stops at several key stations in Cornwall—including St Austell, Truro, and St Erth—you’ll be close to some of the best destinations, like Newquay, Falmouth, and St Ives. Whether you're traveling for work, a weekend getaway, or just the adventure of a night train, this journey is all about blending comfort and convenience.

🛏️ Sleeper Cabins: For the ultimate night’s sleep, book one of the sleeper cabins. With crisp white linen, cozy bedding, USB charging ports, and a bedside sink, these cabins offer a restful experience that will have you waking up refreshed and ready to explore. If you're traveling solo, you'll have a cabin all to yourself, but there’s also an option for double occupancy if you're traveling with a partner.

🥐 Dining & Amenities: Before you settle in for the night, enjoy complimentary hot drinks in the dining cart 🍵, or grab a nightcap as you watch the city fade into the countryside. When you wake up, breakfast is delivered to your cabin: coffee, a pastry, or a bacon sandwich to fuel your morning adventures ☕🥐.

🚉 Seated Option: For those on a budget, there’s also a seated option, which is more affordable than daytime trains. While you won't have the luxury of a cabin, the seats are still spacious and comfortable, making it a great alternative for a quick nap before waking up to Cornwall’s scenic beauty.

🏞️ Why Take the Night Train? Instead of wasting precious daylight hours in transit, you can sleep through the night and wake up at the edge of the UK, ready to explore the coastline or catch a ferry to the Isles of Scilly 🌊. It's perfect for travelers who want to make the most of their time in Cornwall.

🌟 Book your tickets now and make your next Cornwall escape unforgettable!
