With Scot Mountain Holidays, you get a walking holiday plus a whole lot more. You get qualified guides & instructors with an unrivalled knowledge of  all the classic walking destinations in the Highlands of Scotland; fantastic mountain days & panoramic views of one of the world’s most beautiful places, plus seemless transition to the social part of the day.

We firmly believe ‘the day’ doesn’t finish with the walk or coaching. It's about returning after a brilliant day out to “Cake-O’Clock” - a welcoming mug of tea, freshly baked cakes and a roaring fire. The superb home cooking, the totally relaxed and friendly atmosphere of our own lodge and being with like-minded people, make for a brilliant holiday We are very proud of all the great testimonials Mountain Innovations receives. You arrive as a guest and leave as friends. It can't be beat!

Location

We are based in Boat of Garten but run holidays across the Highlands using bases within the area we walk - Torridon, Skye, Arran, Argyll and Assynt are all in our programme. We use estate lodges or high-quality cottages carefully selected from trusted partners when we are away from our home base.

Accommodation

Imagine a roaring fire, a welcoming mug of tea, home-baking; all after a great day in the Cairngorms. A stay at Fraoch Lodge is this & more: fantastic food, flexible meal times, forecasts, drying room.

Your hosts at Fraoch Lodge are Andy and Rebecca. The house is of a traditional Edwardian design, made of granite & is decorated very much in keeping with this period. Artifacts from their travels through Asia and Africa adorn the walls as do mountain pictures from around the Highlands and the world. Comfortable accommodation is provided in twin rooms.
