Wild Swimming in Scotland
Scotland is home to some of the most beautiful and unspoilt beaches in the world, meaning that you don’t need to travel to far-away places to enjoy crystal clear waters and fresh sea air. Check in to your beautiful sea-view bedroom and feel inspired to swim on the wild West coast of Scotland. There is a treasure-trove of stunning scenery, along with fascinating wildlife and flora surrounding our country house by the sea.
Enjoy your morning by waking up and having your first dip – we will provide you with extra towels – and you can walk down to the boat house and dive in there or wander along to the shore to one of the two sandy beaches. Come back to a full cooked Scottish breakfast, with gluten-free, vegan and vegetarian options, before heading up or down the coast to some of Scotland’s finest beaches. After a day at the beach, return to our hotel for a full-bodied, warming single malt from one of the distilleries in the local area.
Our Wild Swimming package is priced from £660 per room for 3-nights and includes:
-
- 3-nights en-suite accommodation in a sea-view room
