After breakfast our minibus will leave at 9.30am for an optional walk along Loch Lochy and through South Laggan Forest. A packed lunch is included. If you wish to stay in the hotel today, luncheon is included. The minibus will return around 4pm so there is plenty of time to make full use of the leisure club before inclusive dinner.

We will return to the hotel in time to enjoy the facilities of the leisure club before the Hogmanay celebrations.
