A shape,not a script
This is how it often runs. Every day of yours is rewritten around who is coming, what they love, and how much they want to do.
Part 1. Arrival
Edinburgh, then north
Met planeside in Edinburgh or Inverness, then a helicopter or a long road north to the estate. A piper at the door if you want one.
Part 2. On the estate
River and hill
Salmon fishing with a ghillie, clay shooting, or a day on the hill with a stalker, back for a dram by the fire.
Part 3. Speyside
The whisky country
Private tastings at distilleries that rarely open their doors, and the chance to taste from a single cask.
Part 4. The west
Skye and the coast
The Old Man of Storr and the Quiraing, a boat to the islands, and seafood straight off the boats.
Part 5. Evenings
Dinner in the great hall
The estate chef cooks what came off the hill and out of the river, and the cellar is opened to your taste.
Everything,door to door
One desk, one quote, one payment. You get the plan and the paperwork; we deal with everyone else.
