AUTHENTIC SCOTLAND

"Strontian Hotel is set in a perfect position for a break that gives a combination of known tourist destinations, with further reach into the Wild West Peninsula of Ardnamurchan where the landscapes are quite simply awe-inspiring.  If you want a really authentic Scottish break then this is the place to be."

NEVER MIND A WEEK, STAY FOR A MONTH! 

"The Strontian Hotel has a great restaurant on-site, and it's clearly the place to eat locally, being popular with both holidaymakers and locals.  For anyone who wants to be in a great position to enjoy wildlife, landscapes and epic views, this should suit. You can also feel the history within its walls and imagine what it was like here when there was mining locally. It's the sort of place you could come to for a month as a recuperative spell, let alone a week. You could detox from everyday stresses by reading, walking, painting, paddling, wild swimming and any or all of those things that take your fancy - it's a gem of a location."

MAKE IT YOUR OWN

"A look at the map will tell you that this is a spot you can take in the best landscapes from, with castles, beaches, boat trips and a range of activities to enjoy. If you prefer a sedentary break you'll find short walks, wildlife hides, viewpoints and quaint little villages aplenty.  What's key about this spot, or any in a semi-rural location like this is that it is what you make it. Nature provides most of the tourist attractions. They are particularly splendid though, and you're invited to observe these wonders at close quarters here. Whether you choose to make the most of that is up to you. In areas like this, it's sometimes tricky finding the best place to stay where you are completely comfortable and there are luxurious touches, yet where you can also feel at home and relax.  The Strontian strikes the perfect balance - it's a great place to stay and you won't have to walk home after dinner out either with a popular restaurant in-house!"

Top tip:  If you time your break to enjoy local musicians playing in the Bothy Bar, you'll feel like you've enjoyed Scotland at it's most authentic."
