DAY 3
DAY 4
After breakfast, Hugh Fullerton-Smith will guide a day trip which will include a visit to Dunrobin Castle and its magnificent waterside gardens. We then head to Loch Fleet Nature Reserve, home to one of the UK’s largest seal colonies. From here we drive to Coul Links for a stunning beach walk and a remote, delicious picnic lunch. We will then move on to visit the beautiful Cathedral town of Dornoch with its unique vibe. A short private tour of the famous Glenmorangie distillery will follow, before arriving at the ANTA Design Centre in time for a cup of tea.
There is the option for a relaxed birdwatching walk with Ryan before breakfast, or a workout in the gym. Then HAVASI will join us for a 4x4 drive along Glen Alladale, making our way down this most majestic glacial valley before crossing the Alladale river and walking into the magical Skiach Woods, one of the most northern remnants of the ancient wood of Caledon. Over the millennia, 95% of Scotland’s original forests have been felled, leaving only small pockets that we can observe today. Ryan will then show us the Scottish Wildcat breeding centre and explain more about the partnership program with RZSS, and the work being undertaken to save this highly threatened felid from extinction. After lunch we have the opportunity for some personal relaxation time, or partake in one of the many Reserve activities on offer. HAVASI will give another recital over drinks and canapes before we all enjoy dinner together.
Hugh will host this evening’s drinks and dinner.
