Itinerary
Scottish Wool Centre
We visit the Scottish Wool Centre, offering luxurious cashmere, clothes and gifts, plus an extensive Whisky & Food Hall and the Ben Lomond restaurant, where you can find mouth-watering Scottish dishes and traditional home baking. The Mill also hosts a popular outdoor sheepdog display that is well worth a watch.
Inverary
This picturesque excursion begins in Balmaha, basking on the Eastern shore of Loch Lomond. From here we take a cruise over to Luss and continue along the coast to the traditional town of Inveraray, where you will have a few hours to explore before we return to the hotel.
Loch Katrine Cruise
We take a scenic drive over the spectacular Dukes Pass to Loch Katrine. Here you can enjoy sailing aboard the modern cruiser, 'Lady of the Lake,' with Afternoon Tea served on board.
The Kelpies
Come and meet the Kelpies, the world's largest equine sculptures, standing over 30 metres high! During an included guided tour, you can see these impressive horse heads up close and marvel at the breathtakingly complex engineering from inside.
Edinburgh
You can enjoy some free time in beautiful Edinburgh. The compactness of the city means that the limitless number of attractions can easily be explored on foot, including the famous Royal Mile and Edinburgh Castle.
