Romantic Scotland: Romantic Breaks

Itinerary VSP-6: Private Island by seaplane from £525pp for 2nts

Flying from the heart of Glasgow to Oban Bay on a fabulous 9-seater luxury seaplane is a breathtaking way to appreciate Scotland’s dramatic West Coast beauty. This ‘birds eye’ view over magnificent lochs, mountains and craggy coastline is also the most direct and quickest way to the West Highlands.

In co-operation with Scotland's first commercial seaplane service, we have put together a luxury holiday which will have you touching down in Oban just 20 minutes after take-off from the Clyde, and relaxing in your hotel room within the hour. Whisked away by taxi from Oban to a hideaway hotel on a private island, you can enjoy the maximum amount of time at your destination.

Your Hotel 

Cross the rickety bridge from the west coast mainland to this idyllic hideaway and you enter a different world - a world of luxury, pampering and seclusion. The five star hotel is a sprawling baronial mansion, with a comfortable country house feel. Meanwhile, the relatively new leisure facilities at the Stables Spa are a testament to streamlined modernity, with a 17m indoor heated swimming pool, state-of-the-art gym, sauna, steam room, aromatherapy and reflexology suite.

This truly unique experience costs £525 per person, from Mid March to end October 2008, with 2 nights in a double room on a bed & breakfast basis, and return flights from Glasgow city centre to Oban Bay by seaplane. A taxi transfer from Oban to the hotel is also included.

For that extra special touch why not upgrade to a Spa suite, including your own 'hot tub', sun lounge and garden for £55 per person per night.

All our holidays include a touring map of the country with recommended routes from your specified starting point in Scotland, suggestions on places to see and visit depending on your personal interests and our expertise to help you get the most from your holiday.

All itineraries and room types are presented subject to availability at specific hotels.
