Glencoe
Glencoe’s brooding mountains seem to close in as you arrive in a glen of breathtaking natural beauty. It’s a place where history comes alive, evoking the tragic events of 1692, when the clan Campbell-led government forces massacred the MacDonald clan under the cover of night. Here, we will pause to soak in the stunning views and take the opportunity to capture unforgettable photographs.
