Day 1 Travel to Scotland.

Day 2 Scotland is well known for its legends, so today we have included a chance to go Nessie hunting on a Loch Ness cruise. On then to Inverness, the cultural capital of the Scottish Highlands. See its 19th century Cathedral, stroll along the banks of River Ness and browse the indoor Victorian Market.

Day 3 This morning is to Fort William for time at leisure. Alternatively, head to Glen Nevis for an effortless gondola ride up to 2150ft on the north face of Aonach Mor (admission cost not included). Before returning to the hotel, stop for a tour and tasting at nearby Dalwhinnie Distillery.

Day 4 This morning, journey further into the Highlands to reach Aviemore and enjoy a ride on the nostalgic Strathspey Railway. Take in some of the most spectacular views in Scotland looking across the mountainous landscape which epitomises this beautiful country. This afternoon visit the open-air Highland Folk Museum in Newtonmore. With over 30 historical buildings and thousands of artefacts, visitors will learn how Highland people lived and worked from the 1700s up until the 1960s!

Day 5 Homeward journey.

The hotel offers great value low and shoulder season breaks, including Mountain and Mistletoe in Nov & Dec and a Spring Highland Fling. Please contact us for details.
