"Just had our first break with Highland Heritage.Our courier John Reilly was a star, very knowledgable and very pleasant. The Royal hotel was fantastic, Lovely rooms and lovely public areas. Alex and his staff were brilliant. The food was superb. The Highland concert with the piping in of the Haggis was a superb touch. All the little extra touches such as the red carpet when we arrived, Alex in his kilt the flame torches along the driveway made this like a 5+ star holiday."

“We went on a Highland Heritage holiday in mid October, and were based at the Ben Doran. What a magical setting in the foothills of the highlands. The staff were very attentive, the hotel was spotless, with entertainment every night. The room was beautiful, and the views tremendous. Apart from all this, daily tours to different Scottish locations through breathtaking scenery made this stay very special. The menus in the hotel change daily, with choices of superb food' which makes a huge change from the normal fare on tours.
Absolutely Top Notch!!"
