The Scottish Highlander Barge
The 8 passenger Scottish Highlander has the magical atmosphere of a Scottish country house with the subtle use of tartan furnishings and landscape paintings creating an authentic and restful atmosphere. Most recently refitted in winter 2005/6, at 117 feet, she is spacious and has every cruising comfort for year round cruising. The food served on board is traditional Scottish fare: salmon, game, venison and seafood, prepared by your own Master Chef. Her experienced crew of four assure attention to your every need whilst the cruise along the Great Glen encounters some of Scotland’s most magnificent scenery. Many treasures of Scotland will be explored on this cruise as you cruise through various lochs and the famous Caledonian Canal. Very different in feel from our French cruises, this is a real ‘must do’!
