Our group of 10 friends took Emma Jane for 6 days in the Small Isles and although we were all pretty excited in anticipation of our trip for months in advance, I have to say it exceeded all our expectations in every way. Amazingly the seas were calm, and although it was cool, our welcome certainly was not. All the crew, from our superb chef, Caroline, to our delightful and knowledgeable naturalist and our great captains (yes, two for the price of one!), Rob and Chris, could not have been more charming, helpful and pleasant to spend time with. And Emma was so efficient in handling all the arrangements. The area is, of course, scenically stunning, the wildlife abundant, and I really cannot imagine how our trip could have been bettered. I am sure we all sincerely hope to return one day. Many thanks and best wishes, Jenny Brewis

This was one of the very best last minute little holidays we have been on. The lovely weather helped of course but everywhere we visited was stunning and the birds and cetaceans all added to the joy. Staffa was mind blowing as it was spectacular and I felt very privileged to have been able to go there. The bright sun bounced off the water and onto the ceiling making it feel magical. Being welcomed each afternoon with delicious cake and bubbles was an added delight. As was soaking in the hot tub and looking out onto the wonderful views.
