From colourful harbours and sheer island cliffs to ancient stones and the sweeping west coast—discover Scotland at its most captivating.
Five days bring together a full-day Skye excursion, the coastal scenery of Wester Ross and a guided day on Lewis & Harris. Stay for two nights in Gairloch, then cross to Stornoway for two more: a journey with a new view around every bend.
Day 1
Travel to Gairloch and settle into The Gairloch Hotel for your first two nights. Beside Gairloch Bay, this is a lovely place to begin a holiday shaped by sea lochs, island horizons and Highland scenery.
Enjoy dinner and a comfortable evening before the next day’s Skye adventure.
Day 2
Travel through unspoilt scenery, looking across the Inner Sound towards Scalpay and Raasay. Skye’s changing landscapes are part of the pleasure: open water, rugged hills and a coastline that invites you to keep looking.
Visit Kilt Rock Waterfall, where Mealt Falls drops towards the sea beside the dramatic cliffs, then continue to Portree for free time. Wander the harbour, browse the town’s shops or pause in a café before returning to Gairloch.
Day 3
After breakfast, follow a scenic stretch of the north-west coast towards Ullapool. Visit Poolewe, Loch Ewe and Aultbea, continuing through Gruinard Bay, Dundonnell and Braemore—a day of sea lochs, villages and expansive Highland views.
At Ullapool, board the late-afternoon ferry to Stornoway. As the mainland recedes, the holiday takes on a different rhythm. On arrival, continue to the Caladh Inn for two nights in the Outer Hebrides.
Day 4
Meet your guide for a full day discovering Lewis & Harris. Enjoy around an hour of free time in Tarbert, then sit down to an included lunch at the Harris Hotel before exploring two of Lewis’s most memorable heritage sites.
With a guide bringing the landscape and island history to life, this is a day to look beyond the view and discover the stories behind it.
Raised around 5,000 years ago, these extraordinary standing stones make a powerful impression against the island sky. Walk among a landscape of ancient history, with admission included.
The restored stone-and-thatch houses offer a vivid glimpse of traditional Hebridean life. Visit this coastal village as part of your guided day, with admission included.
Lunch at the Harris Hotel is a welcome pause in the day: a chance to relax, enjoy being on the islands and share the morning’s discoveries before continuing to Calanais and Gearrannan.
Day 5
Depart Stornoway on the early ferry back to Ullapool, then continue home by coach. A boxed breakfast is provided on departure, ready for the early start.
Return with memories of Skye’s cliffs and harbour, the west-coast road and the timeless heritage of Lewis & Harris—all brought together in one carefully arranged break.
Dinner, bed and breakfast are included at both hotels: two nights on the mainland, followed by two nights in Stornoway.
Nights 1 & 2 · Gairloch
Set beside Gairloch Bay, the hotel offers a scenic mainland base for the start of your holiday. Enjoy en-suite accommodation, a restaurant and lounge bar, with dinner and breakfast included during your two-night stay.
Nights 3 & 4 · Stornoway
A welcoming town-centre base for your island stay, the Caladh Inn brings the warmth of Hebridean hospitality to the final two nights of your holiday. Dinner is included on both evenings, with breakfast on the first morning and a boxed breakfast for your early departure.
Return ferry crossings between Ullapool and Stornoway and reserved coach seating are included, so you can concentrate on enjoying the journey.
Highland roads. Island stories.Scotland, beautifully connected.
