Glen Grant distillery and thereabouts
Part of the day will be spent wandering around the restored woodland garden, a rare example of Scotland’s Victorian garden heritage, with the exotic appeal of plants from around the world. You can choose to have the 40-minute Distillery Tour or just spend time in the garden.

Blair Castle
There’s plenty to see at Blair Castle, both inside the Castle and in the lovely gardens and grounds, so you’ll be free to wander and just savour at your own pace.
