Our guests this week have enjoyed the most amazing weather! The world wide perception of Scotland is that it rains all the time - but no. For the past eight days it has been sunny with blue skies and this made the tour over to Iona all the more special. The ferries all ran on […]
There were so many places to explore and enjoy on our tour of the Hebrides. Reflecting on all the stories which were told as we journeyed through the islands, there are some highlights well worth sharing here. Memorial to the sailors of HMY Iolaire The Iolaire One of the most powerful and poignant tales was […]
Beaches of the Outer Hebrides The stunning, white beaches of the Outer Hebrides sparkle like salt and pepper on a plate. The green and turquoise sea can fool any surfers into thinking they are many miles away on a tropical island. On day five of our tour a real adventure awaited with beaches, a magical […]

Orkney Mainland It may be strange to hear that a group of islands, off the north coast of Scotland, collectively known as Orkney - call the biggest island in the archipelago "Mainland".
