ESCAPE PLANS
GET BACK to nature
Wildlife fans will love getting back to nature while exploring the Scottish village of Pitlochry and its surroundings on a naturewatching break.
You’ll head out on to the moors in search of bats, and see red deer and red squirrels in the woods.
There’s wildlife-spotting on the River Tummel, too, on this four-day break with Responsible Travel. Stay in a local B&B, where you can also enjoy an astronomy session to learn about the constellations and their myths.
September and October departures cost £700 per person, B&B. Flights extra.
