Local departure by coach or Home Connect service, then to the Angus Hotel, Blairgowrie for four nights.
Included excursion which begins with a scenic drive, as we climb Devil’s Elbow and cross the remote Cairnwell Pass in the heart of the Grampian Mountains. After a short break at the gates of Balmoral Castle to view Crathie Church, home of many a Royal Wedding, then its onward to Ballater for free time.
Later, this afternoon we head to Braemar, home of ‘The Highland Gathering’ and famous for its Royal connections.
We head to Edinburgh, where we include a guided tour of the Scottish capital. Often referred to as the ‘Athens of the North’ and because it was built on seven hills, likened to Rome, Edinburgh is indeed a classical city in its own right.
Evidence shows there was a tribal stronghold on Castle Rock in 600 BC, where now stands the city’s most dominant feature. The magnificent castle fortress is familiar to us through television as the setting for The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo. During its history, the city has become neatly divided in two, the Old Town of pre-18th century times, huddled under Castle Rock, and the New Town, with its fine Georgian architecture.
Our included excursion takes us first to Queen’s View. This world famous viewpoint provides stunning vistas overlooking Loch Tummel and is said to have been named after Queen Victoria, following her visit to the area in 1866.
We continue to Pitlochry with chance to view the famous salmon ladder. One of Scotland’s most popular holiday resorts, Pitlochry nestles in the hills of the Tummel Valley. It sits amidst lush wooded, craggy mountains, tumbling streams and lochs. Beautiful Victorian buildings are set against a backdrop of forest covered hills.
We end the day with an included visit to Blair Castle. This Baronial style castle has a long history and is the ancient seat of the Dukes and Earls of Atholl, boasting a stunning setting, surrounded by breathtaking Perthshire scenery. The gardens of the castle provide a leisurely walk and the Castle, being home to some fine examples of Scottish design, tradition and history.
Return home.
You will stay for four nights at the 3-star Angus Hotel in Blairgowrie.
