Speyside is known as the 'Garden of the North' and the Moray Coastline is sometimes referred to as the 'Scottish Riviera'. The Northern Highlands also boast the finest scenery, complemented by wonders of engineering such as the Caledonian Canal and the Kessock Bridge. Our base, Grantown-on-Spey, is on the edge of the Cairngorms National Park, a centre for the linen trade dating to the 18th century. Half board accommodation is at the Craiglynne Hotel, which combines modern comfort with classic Victorian architecture. There is a lift to most rooms. The hotel is fronted by a pleasant garden.
