Unfortunately our wonderful Reservations Coordinator, Maddy, has moved on to an exciting new role outwith the company as her partner's work has meant she has had to move to Edinburgh πŸ˜” While we’ll miss her in the office, we’re thrilled for her as she embarks on this next chapter.... Gleneagles are lucky to have you.

Join us in wishing Maddy all the best in her new adventure! (Hope your head isn't too sore for moving day after the Hospitality Industry Trust Scotland dinner last night!)

Our Eriskay Class is the perfect small boat for families or couples.

With even more flexibility, with no set change over days and as little as a two night stay, it is a great introduction to boating.

With 5 of the 6 boats pet friendly, it really is ideal for all the family.

As the last boat returned this morning, it marks the end of our 2024 season!

We'd like to say a massive thank you to all of our marvellous guests who have made this a brilliant season. We hope to welcome you back, and to all with bookings for 2025 already in the diary, we can't wait to see you!

Although we don't have any boats our for hire in the winter season, we are very busy behind the scenes preparing for 2025. Stay tuned to see some of the things we're doing in the run up to our 2025 season, starting at the end of March.

The office is also still open for bookings and enquiries, so please get in touch if we can help! A lot of our bigger boats are getting booked up for the peak of summer next year so don't miss out.

It's been another fantastic season and we look forward to reopening for hire in March!

From today, we have started our Winter season! Our opening hours are now Monday to Thursday, 8am to 5pm. This shorter week allows our full time staff to get a longer weekend, making up for the busy summer season! But don't be fooled - it isn't quieter in the winter season at Caley Cruisers. Some of our staff our busier than in summer working hard to improve our boats for next season.

Please note, reception will not always be covered during these opening times as it is all hands on deck (literally!) to prepare for next season. If you are calling, please leave a voicemail and we will get back to you, and all emails will be responded to within one working day.

Thank you for your understanding and patience!

Check out the Torridon class in some more detail with Derek. This boat is very spacious and perfect for larger groups or families, so you can still have your own space.

If you only need the 2 double cabins, the Kintail class would be perfect for you!

Any questions? βš“
