The triumphant return of the Glenfinnan Sleeping Car is here. For an unforgettable stay look no further, just down from the iconic Glennfinan viaduct as seen in Harry Potter. Open now for single households.

A decommissioned dining cart will be the setting of your relaxing break in the highlands. Sweeping vistas all around, the rugged mountain scenery really must be seen to be believed. The carriage has a fully equipped kitchen, showers, a drying room and total hydro-electric heating. As if that wasn’t cool enough – there’s a dining car to serve you meals as well! Your stay includes free admission to the museum too. In the morning set out for the peaks: Lochaber, Rough Bounds, Moidart and Ardgour, secure in the knowledge you’re returning to the old-world glamour of the age of steam.

Due to COVID-19 the Sleeping Car will remain closed until next year. We hope to open again in April 2021 but this will depend on the COVID situation; we may only be able to open for groups booked for exclusive use in 2021 due to social distancing requirements.

The museum is housed in the station buildings, it tells the story of the West Highland Railway, its construction and development.

Still a working railway station, the museum offers a a hands-on introduction to West Highland railway heritage. The indoor exhibition provides interesting facts and stories about the spectacular Glenfinnan Viaduct and life on the West Highland line, while the outdoor exhibits tell the story of a rural Scottish railway station over the last century. Also with woodland, viaduct, and village walks around the site!
