Loch Achray Hotel 7 Day Spring Break
First Day - South
Arrive at the Loch Achray Hotel in time for dinner.
Cruise Loch Lomond and visit Luss
Visit the ‘Queen of the Scottish Lakes’ and explore the famous bonnie banks. Loch Lomond lies in a national park and is an area of outstanding natural beauty. There is a host of wildlife, plenty of stunning views and many activities in and around the national park. Cruise on Loch Lomond to fully appreciate the landscape. For such a small place there is an incredible amount of history attached and the shoreline along from the Inversnaid Hotel was the hideout for both Robert the Bruce and the famous Rob Roy MacGregor in their daring escapades. Travelling south into Clan Colquhoun territory lies the pretty village of Luss. Developed in the 18th and 19th centuries to house the workers from nearby slate quarries, the village is remarkably unchanged and the identical sandstone and slate cottages became the setting for the successful TV show Take the High Road. Wander down the pebbly street to the pier for breathtaking panoramic views of Loch Lomond against the mighty backdrop of Ben Lomond.
Aberfeldy, Crieff & Pitlochry
Where rolling lowland hills meet rugged highland mountains, these bustling towns have plenty to do and see. Lying on the shores of Scotland’s longest river, the River Tay, Aberfeldy has spectacular views of the Falls of Moness. Discover Crieff – originally a main cattle trading centre in Scotland. From its medieval roots this town has flourished and is home to the oldest distillery in Scotland which showcases one of Scotland’s most famous whiskies. Also a visit to the friendly little town of Pitlochry with its quaint architecture and beautiful scenery, as well as local crafts and produce.
Edinburgh
Scotland’s Capital seamlessly blends old and new, making it a fabulous city to explore. The Castle and the Royal Mile are steeped in history and Scottish culture. Holyrood Palace lies in the heart of the city alongside the new Scottish Parliament building and it is the combination of ancient and modern that makes Edinburgh such a vibrant place to visit. This bustling city offers a wide variety of shops, food and drink, as well as some of the best city views in Europe.
Largs
Sitting at the Firth of the River Clyde, Largs is a traditional seaside resort on the West Coast. Stroll along the Victorian promenade and visit the famous ice cream parlours that have been hosting visitors since the nineteenth century.
Historic Stirling
Explore the beautiful Royal Burgh of Stirling where for centuries monarchs ruled from its strategic castle and where merchants operated below castle rock. Stirling is Scotland’s heritage capital, and the Wars of Independence were fought and won here. The city has been carefully preserved and the history of Scotland lives on through the architecture and local landmarks. The castle sits majestically above the busy city and its regal splendour remains unchanged. The National Wallace Monument stands at 220ft and overlooks the scene of one of Scotland’s most famous battle sites, The Battle of Stirling Bridge, which was led by the famous William Wallace.
