Review of boating holidays in Scotland…

“Had a long weekend up in Scotland with Le Boat. We had fantastic time from start to finish, staff at the base couldn’t have been more helpful. Do yourself a favour and get booked in, it is a stunning part of the country to relax and enjoy, as well as excellent value for money. I’m looking forward to re-booking in the future”
