Held at the Great Yorkshire Showground, Harrogate's Autumn Flower Show is regarded as one of the best of its kind in the country.  The autumn show is one of the last in the UK's gardening show season and offers green-fingered visitors the chance to see wonderful exhibitions and to pick up some gardening tips. As with the spring show, the Flower Halls are crammed with incredible exhibitions as nurseries from up and down the country compete for coveted awards.

Your journey begins as you are welcomed by your steward, and shown to your seat. On board, beautifully laid tables with starched tablecloths, along with uniquely branded silverware, emphasise the elegant and comfortable carriages.

Fine dining is a highlight of every journey, and once you have settled into your seat, a delicious brunch with Bellini is served on the outward journey to Harrogate. In the care of your steward, sit back and relax in the convivial atmosphere. The journey is as exciting as the destination.

On arrival into Harrogate, a road coach will transfer you to the Flower Show. Most of the exhibition space is under cover so don't let the threat of bad weather put you off.  Don't miss the amazing specialist society’s marquee, National Vegetable Championships and the Heaviest Onion Competition.

Return back to the station and re-board the Northern Belle.  You’ll be welcomed with a glass of chilled champagne. Later, a sumptuous dinner is served accompanied by half a bottle of wine.
