Loch Lomond
Lovely Lochs in The Trossachs What a perfect location! Just a couple of miles from stunning Loch Lomond, The Winnock is a great base for this tour which takes in some of the most scenic spots in The Trossachs National Park, including Luss, Callander, Loch Katrine and, of course, Loch Lomond. We also visit the magnificent Inveraray Castle and
Scotland’s historic capital. PACKAGED ITINERARY Day 1 Arrival We arrive at our hotel in time for dinner. Day 2 Loch Lomond, Luss & Inveraray Castle
Edinburgh Castle
Loch Katrine
Our day begins with a scenic tour of lovely Loch Lomond, in the heart of The Trossachs National Park, surrounded by charming villages, beautiful countryside and rolling hills. We have time to pause in the postcard-pretty village of Luss before continuing our travels to Inveraray Castle & Gardens , the ancestral seat of the Chief of Clan Campbell and one of Scotland’s finest stately homes. There’s plenty to see over the three floors, including the Clan Room, which offers an insight into the fascinating history of Clan Campbell; the French influenced Tapestry Drawing Room with original Beauvais tapestries; and the Victorian Room, which serves as a tribute to the marriage between HRH Princess Louise – daughter of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert – and the Marquess of Lorne. Day 3 Loch Katrine Cruise & Callander This morning we enjoy a relaxing cruise on Loch Katrine . Departing from the Trossachs pier, we sit back and admire the beauty of the area, taking in views of Ben Venue mountain, Ellen’s Isle and Queen Victoria’s loch-side Royal Cottage. This afternoon we head to the small town of Callander where we have time at leisure. Known as the ‘Gateway to the Highlands’, Callander serves as the eastern gateway to the Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park, so the scenery is magnificent. Day 4 Edinburgh We spend today in Edinburgh with time at leisure to explore Scotland’s beautiful capital. We may wish to visit magnificent Edinburgh Castle, perched atop an extinct volcano, or The Scotch Whisky Experience where we can sample the wares. We can also browse the various shops, restaurants and pubs on the famous Royal Mile. Day 5 Departure After breakfast, we make our way home.
