Nature and the weather can be unpredictable, so your flexibility is important. All swims are planned with safety at their heart, and your guides will adapt the plan day by day to ensure the best possible experience. Want to sit out a swim? No problem, come and watch, or take a break and read a book by the fire.

Friday

A Scottish Welcome

The afternoon begins with drinks, snacks and a warm welcome in the Drawing Room, before our first dip followed by mulled wine and mince pies. Guests then make their way through to the dining room for dinner at 7pm.

Saturday

Camusdarach and Loch Morar

After breakfast in the Dining Room we head to the beautiful Camusdarach beach for our first swim of the weekend – a gentle introduction to the Scottish sea. Lunch is served back at the house at 12.30pm, before the afternoon takes us somewhere rather special: Loch Morar, the deepest body of freshwater in the British Isles, for a magical sunset dip. Back at Traigh House, afternoon tea is waiting for you in the Drawing Room. Enjoy some time round the fire playing games, reading a book or chatting before supper is served followed by cheese and mulled wine.
Sunday

Loch a’ Nostaire and Christmas Dinner

The day begins with breakfast at 9am, followed by a morning walk and swim at Loch a’ Nostaire. We will head back for lunch in the Dining Room, before an afternoon swim along the sandy beaches at Silver Sands. A well deserved afternoon tea will be ready upon our return from the day’s activities. Finally, Christmas dinner with all the trimmings will be served in the dining room rounded off with carols, presents and – for anyone still awake – games!

Monday

Last dip and goodbyes

  • We will have a morning dip at Traigh House bay to round off an incredible adventure followed by breakfast and departures (check out 10am).
