Discover everything on offer around our hotels, and make the most of travelling to the Highlands in springtime.

Plockton

While enjoying a Spring break in Scotland at the Plockton Inn, there is so much to do and see in this picturesque village. Enjoy a relaxing walk along the bay and take in the panoramic views across Loch Carron. Or take a stroll through the beautiful nearby Attadale Gardens, which will be in full bloom during the Spring in Scotland. Discover a large variety of flowers, trees and sculptures that span over twenty acres. It is truly a sight to behold!

Guests can also catch a glimpse at some local Highland wildlife and enjoy one of Calum’s Seal Trips. You’ll have the chance to spot harbour seals, grey seals, many species of seabirds, porpoise and even dolphins!

Assynt

Assynt is a great example of the rugged Highland landscapes that surround our collection of hotels, and Spring is a great time to experience your own authentic adventure!

During your stay at Kylesku Hotel or Newton Lodge, you can uncover the beauty and history of the local area with guided study walks, led by award-winning storyteller, folklorist, and poet, Griogair MacAllein. This is a great way to get outside, discover Scotland in Spring, and also embrace lesser-known spots and stories that give this area its charming character.

There is also a whole host of outdoor sports to get stuck into such as hiking, bike riding and sea kayaking. Or if something with a bit of a slower pace suits you better, why not try your hand at a photography workshop. You’ll still be able to enjoy the stunning scenery as it comes back into bloom in Spring and create physical memories to take away with you at the end of your stay.
