Garden & Scottish travel since 1992

At Brightwater Holidays, we believe travel should feel rewarding, well-paced and thoughtfully designed. For more than 30 years, we have specialised in garden tours and Scottish holidays, creating escorted journeys that bring together remarkable landscapes, cultural heritage and distinctive places across the UK, Europe and beyond.

From world-famous flower shows and celebrated public gardens to private estates rarely open to visitors, our tours are shaped by longstanding relationships and careful planning. Scotland remains at the heart of our programme, with itineraries that explore its Highlands, islands and historic landscapes in depth.


Expertly guided, carefully managed

Every Brightwater holiday is accompanied by an experienced Tour Manager, including horticultural specialists, former head gardeners of royal estates, designers and broadcasters. Their insight adds context and detail throughout, enriching each visit and helping you appreciate every place more fully.


Designed for ease and value.

Our escorted tours are designed to feel straightforward and relaxed, with comfortable coach travel, hotel accommodation and visits included as outlined in each itinerary. With practical arrangements handled throughout and so much included in the price from the outset, you can travel with clarity and confidence.
