A very warm welcome to the Isles of Glencoe Hotel.
“ ….let the dance begin, lock away the fine china and kick up the old stone floor.
Where the train divides upon Lomondside, Hear the echo from forest to shore. Sailing over deep water and dancing on air; If you close your eyes you will be there.
Do you dream of a journey taking you back home, where the Cry from the Heart of the Highlands lives on? … “
Having just arrived after a long journey, why not unwind in our lounge or work off those festive indulgences in the leisure pool, jacuzzi, and sauna?
From here on, we take care of everything. All you need to do is enjoy the New Year festivities.
We’ve prepared a diverse entertainment program to cater to everyone's tastes. You’ll find the detailed New Year program enclosed.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask a member of our management team.
The entire team joins me in wishing you a wonderful stay and a very Happy New Year.
