The very freshest seafood, with cossetting accommodation and fun experiences in this newly updated holiday.
Our Scottish Seafood Trail is designed specifically for lovers of the freshest seafood and shellfish. This holiday includes unique and authentic experiences on a week-long, self-drive tour of some of the most scenic locations on the west coast of Scotland.
Revel in a hands-on seafood cookery demo with a hugely experienced chef (followed by lunch, of course); take a boat trip with a creel fisherman as he hauls in langoustines and brown crabs, then savour the day’s catch with a memorable lunch on the shorefront. Accommodation is in four carefully-chosen small hotels and inns, in fabulous lochside locations, and all boasting great reputations for their food.
Your route will take you first to Inverness then south through the Highlands.
Three centre self-drive tour covering Arduaine, Loch Linnhe on the west coast just north of Oban and Shieldaig in the north west Highlands.
£1445 per person for departures in April & October, £1495 per person for May to September.
Prices based on two people sharing a room for seven nights on a bed and breakfast basis.
Prices include a seafood cookery demonstration and lunch on day two and a fisherman’s shellfish safari with seafood lunch experience on day five. You are welcome to bring your own wine to accompany the seafood lunch, which normally comprises langoustines or crab; if caught, lobster may be served for a small extra charge.

Thoroughly enjoyed the holiday - fabulous part of the country.Jill & Chris, Alnwick, England
The highlight was undoubtedly the creel boat fishing trip - and to get to eat what was caught was fantastic!Ken & Jean , Houghton-le-Spring, England
I loved not just the seafood tie-ins - it was the fact that I would never have been able to assemble the trip by myself that made it special.Carolyn, London, England
