My holiday was in the Outer Hebrides – a wonderful, awe inspiring and educational 7 days. The scenery was magnificent but one the most memorable experience for me was sharing it with five others that were just as impressed with both the location and history of the area as I was. 
(more)We saw so much of Scotland both on trains and on foot. The scenery is spectacular and the walking is demanding enough to be satisfactory but not too exhausting. (more)I loved it! It helped the environment and taught you a lot about the area and animals around you. We were kept entertained and had a really fun time - I will always remember this holiday. (more)I loved the whole process of gathering natural materials (lichen, fungus, nettles, birch bark, etc) to dye the wool, the dyeing itself and the amazing array of colours we created with single and secondary dyes. (more)Everything about this trip was great, but memories of the magnificent mountain scenery I'm sure will stay with me forever. (more)The accommodations ranged from excellent with charm and lovely people to absolutely fine... But the best of the best was our guide, Ian, absolutely top notch. He concocted for us some great mini adventures. Perfect. (more)The most memorable part of the holiday was during dolphin-watching, when a baby dolphin with it’s' mother, dived in and out of the water, around both sides of our boat. They swam very close to us. Sarah, who steered the boat, knew the sea area near Cromarty and the Black Isle extremely well. She gave us an informative and exhilarating boat journey. (more)Wouldn't have wanted anything different! Despite patchy weather which meant that Munro-baggers didn't get all the opportunities they would have liked, the location, the island hopping activities and above all the superb wildlife more than made up for it. (more)Everything that can be recycled or reused is, but yet at the same time this doesn’t effect the quality of the service offered and I feel this certainly adds to the whole experience and ambience of the lodge.
(more)The highlight was seeing dolphins play in the bow wave of the ship, followed minutes later by a Minke whale passing within metres of us

The highlight was the scenery, the lack of signs of any kind of civilisation as far as could be seen, the changing weather, being out in the weather and alive to it all the time. (more)We invite every traveller who books a holiday via us to send in a review. Because we don't run the holidays they're completely independent and unedited... remember to read between the lines though, as two people on the same holiday can have different views!
