The Britannic Explorer Debuts England & Wales’ First Luxury Spa on Rails with Wildsmith

Luxury train travel reaches new heights as The Britannic Explorer, A Belmond Train, U.K., introduces England and Wales’ first onboard spa experience. Launching in July 2025, this exclusive Wellness Suite is crafted in partnership with Wildsmith, a leading British wellbeing brand known for its nature-inspired treatments and sustainable approach to self-care. Designed to harmonize body and mind, this slow-luxury journey blends bespoke spa treatments, mindful relaxation, and scenic exploration.

A Spa Retreat on the Rails

Housed within one of the train’s ten exquisitely designed carriages, the Wellness Suite offers a first-of-its-kind experience, curated by Wildsmith to reflect the landscapes unfolding beyond the windows. Guests can indulge in five signature treatments, each incorporating mindfulness, grounding techniques, and botanical-rich formulations sourced directly from Wildsmith’s biodynamic farm at Heckfield Place.

Signature Treatments: A Botanical Journey

Inspired by radical botany and circadian rhythms, the treatment menu is built around natural cycles of renewal, growth, and rest. Highlights include:

  • Signature Circadian Rhythm Reset – Three tailored treatments offered throughout the day:
    • Morning Revitalization for an energetic start
    • Midday Purification to restore balance
    • Evening Calm to promote deep relaxation and restful sleep
  • Radical Botany Facial – A rejuvenating blend of breathwork, myofascial release, and acupressure
  • Rebalancing Massage – Designed to align with circadian rhythms, reduce stress, and enhance circulation
  • Deep-Tissue Therapy – Targeting muscle tension and fatigue for physical relief
  • Prenatal Massage – A gentle, restorative experience for expectant parents

Wildsmith’s commitment to sustainability shines through every element, from compostable mycelium and recyclable glass packaging to the use of filtered rainwater in formulations.

Wellness Beyond the Tracks

The journey extends beyond the train with offboard experiences tailored to each destination:

  • Cornwall – Coastal sailing, yoga, and a mindful fire ceremony
  • Lake District – Wild swimming, rowing, and paddleboarding
  • Wales – Scenic valley hikes, lavender farm visits, wood-fired saunas, art classes, and clay pigeon shooting

A Journey to Rediscover Britain

With luxury accommodations starting from £11,000 per double cabin, the Britannic Explorer promises an unparalleled 3-night journey including excursions, gourmet dining, and fine wines. The Wellness Suite is available for booking on every voyage, offering guests a chance to slow down, unwind, and emerge restored.
