Tour the Outer Hebrides, Scotland's enchanting outlying islands, at a wholly appropriate, supremely relaxed pace.

As modern life seems to gather daily momentum, so the Outer Hebrides appear to step back and contemplate where others rush in. Barra, Vatersay, Eriskay, the Uists, Benbecula, Berneray, Harris, Scalpay and Lewis await exploration, delivering an authenticity and tranquillity few destinations come close to matching. We’ve chosen some of the most appealing, out-of-the-way accommodation available to ensure this self-drive tour of the Outer Hebrides is one of our most relaxing Scottish island holidays.

Examine our other “Slowly…” holidays to inspire those who enjoy traveling at a relaxed pace.
