Day 3: After a leisurely breakfast, it’s full steam ahead for a classic rail journey on the Severn Valley Railway between Bridgnorth and Kidderminster. From there, we make our way to the historic town of Ludlow, often referred to as the perfect historic town, with over 500 listed buildings and a castle at its heart.

Day 4: Walk in the footsteps of the Shelby’s at the official home of the Peaky Blinders. This remarkable open air museum – one of the finest in the UK, has a village with charismatic characters to talk to, tram rides to take, maybe descend into the mine, take lessons in the school or just look around the period houses and shops. Used as a film set to many programmes and films such as Peaky Blinders, Land Girls, Stan and Ollie, and 24 Hours in the Past - to name but a few.

Day 5: Return to Waterside.
