Ardgartan Hotel 4 Day Autumn Break
First Day
Travel via Dunkeld to Sma'Glen and on to Crieff before making your way to the Ardgartan Hotel in time for dinner.
Oban & Inveraray
The largest town in Argyll & The Isles, Oban is known as the ‘Gateway to the Isles’ and is the ‘Seafood Capital of Scotland’. Oban has a way of drawing out the romantic side of visitors, with its mists that roll in from the sea, and the hills which overlook the bay. The most iconic feature within Oban is McCaig’s Tower, a Colosseum lookalike that stands above the town and offers wonderful views out west. Turning east lies the pretty town of Inveraray, overlooking the still waters of Loch Fyne. This iconic town was founded in 1745 by the 3rd Duke of Argyll, head of the infamous Clan Campbell. Inveraray is a classic example of an 18th century planned town and the Georgian architecture remains unspoilt. There is plenty to see and even more to taste - from seafood to whisky, these two centres in Argyll offer a great range of local produce -all well worth sampling!
Helensburgh and the Submarine Centre
Step into Colquhoun territory with a visit to Helensburgh and the Submarine Centre. Helensburgh is a handsome Victorian holiday resort on the River Clyde to the west of Glasgow. The town was formed at the end of the 18th century by Sir James Colquhoun who named Helensburgh after his wife – Helen. The popular Victorian holiday destination boasts a long promenade, beautiful parks and pretty gardens. Helensburgh boasts many other famous townsmen including Henry Bell, originator of the steamship and John Logie Baird, the inventor of the television. This excursion also offers you the chance to immerse yourself in Britain’s maritime history with a visit to the Submarine Centre. Their exhibitions explain and present the stories and engineering behind the Royal Navy Submarine Service through 360° panoramic video.
