Smaller Group Stays

Midweek
Escapes

Exclusive stays for smaller groups

Not every visit to Heather Brae needs to be a large family celebration. On selected weekday dates within four weeks of arrival, we occasionally open Heather Brae for smaller groups, offering the opportunity to enjoy the property at a reduced rate while still enjoying a completely private stay. These dates are not listed on our online calendar and can only be booked by enquiry.

Smaller Groups, Same Standard

How Smaller Group Stays Work

01

Always Fully Private

Heather Brae always remains private to one booking. You will never share the house or grounds with another group.

02

Released Four Weeks Ahead

Smaller group stays are only released on selected weekday dates within four weeks of arrival, helping us prioritise larger group bookings made further in advance.

03

Some Areas May Remain Closed

To reflect the size of your booking, a selected number of bedrooms will be prepared and some secondary areas of the house may remain locked during your stay.

04

The Same Heather Brae Standard

This allows us to offer smaller groups access to Heather Brae while maintaining the quality of the experience throughout.
