Dear Emma,
Please pass on belated, but huge thanks from Vanessa and me to the fabulous Elizabeth G crew, who ensured a memorable 25th wedding anniversary for us, as well as a spectacular Hebridean tour for all of us in June – especially including that long dreamt-of visit to St. Kilda, for which Skipper Rob somehow managed repeatedly to get the right weather in the right place for us, while goodness-knows what was going on over the horizon, while Helen, Anna and Julie looked after us all right royally at all times – and were delightful company. It was a truly a dream trip!

8 days in the Southern Hebrides making memories that will last a lifetime. Miles and miles of incredible beaches, remote communities with rich histories. Wildlife, almost within touching distance to marvel at and enjoy. Fantastic varied cuisine, exceptional food, impeccable service and great company. What’s NOT to like? NOT having to decide where to go and how to get there. NOT being in a traffic jam in sight. NOT having the views and scenery completely obstructed by the rear end of the caravan or motorhome in front of you. NOT having the daily challenge of parking your car. NOT having to shop or find your next place to eat. NOT having the standard pub fare. NOT having to resort to a burger or fish and chips. NOT missing out on the best table with the best view for every meal , breakfast , lunch and evening dinner. As I said what’s NOT to like. Book again for next year? NOT a problem? What’s NOT to LOVE?
