The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo & Arrochar Inclusive - 2026

The Caledonian Claymore Hotel, Arrochar

The Caledonian Claymore Hotel was designed and built in the 19th century. The beautiful manor house has 86 rooms, many of which look out onto the grounds surrounding the historic property. It has lush gardens overlooking Loch Long with a backdrop of mountains - you might even spot some deer! This traditionally furnished and cosy hotel joined the Caledonian family in 2023, continuing to offer exceptional service and a traditional Scottish welcome.

A hotel with an enviable location
Based at the foot of the Arrochar Alps on the shores of the tidal sea water Loch Long, it's only a few miles from Loch Lomond.  What spectacular scenery you’ll experience – not just on your way to and from the hotel, but while you’re there too. It’s one of Scotland’s most naturally diverse locations.

Oban

Translated in Scottish Gaelic, Oban means The Little Bay, and people remember this beautiful area for many reasons. Tourists love eating Oban’s fantastic seafood, admiring its breathtaking scenery, and immersing themselves in the town’s history.

And in summer, tourists love watching its spectacular sunsets.

Oban is the biggest town between Helensburgh and Fort William and is a popular tourist hub on the Northwest coast of Scotland that leads to many of the area’s surrounding islands and historic sites.

With its sweeping bay, beautiful harbour and stunning scenic views, Oban has been a popular visitor destination since Victorian times.

Did you know? Oban and neighbouring Lorn have a long and interesting history which began in the Dark Ages with Kings and Chiefs building castles and forts along the coast. In 500AD a powerful Irish Lord named Loairn established his Kingdom just outside Oban at Dunollie and gave his name to the district.

Loch Lomond

Loch Lomond, the largest freshwater loch in mainland Britain, is a great place to get out and explore. Sitting within the Trossachs National Park, it’s surrounded by rolling hills, pretty woodlands, and small villages full of character.

You can take a boat trip on the water, enjoy a walk along the shore, or stop off at one of the lochside cafés for a drink with a view.

If you fancy something more active, there are plenty of hiking trails, as well as opportunities for cycling and water sports. Whether you’re here to soak up the scenery or get stuck into the great outdoors, Loch Lomond offers a fantastic mix of relaxation and adventure.
