The Kent Gin Train!

2025 dates now on sale!

Home of the original on train gin tasting experience in the Southeast!
Join us on the Kent Gin train for a unique gin tasting experience where you can enjoy three different gin’s from local distillery’s, including our partner Anno Distillers of Marden, Kent.

Arrive at Tunbridge Wells West and board our heritage 1960s carriages before setting off through High Weald. At your table will be a selection of three different gins brought to you by the fantastic Anno Distillery, based in Marden with the occasional guest gin too!

To enhance your gin tasting experience we'll also provide a selection of dried or frozen fruits to garnish your gins with and a complimentary Fever-Tree Mixer. You can mix your gins up to suit your taste in your very own branded Spa Valley Railway gin glass (which is yours to keep!) and to keep hunger at bay a delightful selection of canapés will be served too. All for just £37 per adult!
