Christmas Eve
Surrounded by glens, hills and forests, all linked together by the River Garry, Blair Atholl offers beautiful scenery, rural tranquillity and a magnificent castle. This Christmas Eve discover Blair Castle’s 700-year history through the fascinating past of the Dukes and Earls of Atholl. From Mary Queen of Scots to the Civil War, and from Jacobite rebellions to the disaster of Culloden following Bonnie Prince Charlie’s own stay at the castle. Discover how Queen Victoria’s stay led to the creation of Europe’s only private army, the Atholl Highlanders, and the transformation of this unique castle from a strategic stronghold to a Baronial Victorian home. Return to the Loch Tummel Hotel for lunch and games in the afternoon, followed by a complimentary sherry reception, dinner and entertainment.

Boxing Day
This Boxing Day visit Braemar and Ballater in the heart of Royal Deeside. Surrounded by hidden glens and beautiful mountain scenery these villages have long standing royal connections with many of the shops and businesses displaying Royal warrants of the Queen and Prince Charles. Close by lies Balmoral – the Scottish home of the Royal Family. The family are notoriously fond of the Scottish Highlands and this trip offers a chance to explore the area that held so much charm for Queen Victoria & Prince Albert.
