Accommodation Explained
Tour price does not include the cost of accommodation. Accommodation is pre-booked by Heart of Scotland Tours (or by yourself) and you pay card or cash at checkout. Please note some Bed and Breakfasts (B&Bs) only accept cash.
We use the same trusted accommodation providers to ensure consistently high standards within your selected price range. However, it is not possible to specifically name your accommodation before departure and we may need to book your second choice.
Our accommodation providers are very busy and we would advise booking early.
Please note Heart of Scotland Tours is not responsible for fluctuations in the price of accommodation and these prices and pictures are for guidance only.
