Inverness, Scotland

Fishing - Shooting - Golf
August 25-29, 2026

Welcome

Welcome

We cordially invite you to an unforgettable experience in the heart of the Scottish Highlands: Inverness. A journey full of nature, relaxation, adventure and friendship – where special moments are shared and new memories are made.

Your stay will take place in the stylish Ness Castle Lodge, idyllically located on the banks of the River Ness. Here you will learn the art of fly fishing for two days – guided by experienced instructors who will immerse you in the traditions of this timeless sport.

For those who prefer a little more action, we also offer the opportunity for clay pigeon shooting in Aviemore or a round of golf on some of Scotland’s most beautiful courses, including the impressive Nairn Links and the world-famous Castle Stuart.

Of course, the inner person is also taken care of. During the trip you will enjoy the best that Scotland has to offer: a custom-made private dinner with authentic Scottish dishes, or an atmospheric evening with Alfie in Inverness, where taste and conviviality come together.

This trip is all about relaxation, laughter, wine, conviviality and sharing beautiful moments – among yourselves, with friends, in a setting that exudes peace, luxury and connection.

In short, a unique opportunity to experience Scotland at its purest.

Program

DAY 1 - ARRIVAL - FISHING (AFTERNOON)

August 25, 2026

Upon arrival, Ken, our driver, will be waiting for us. Inverness Airport is a small airport, and before Brexit, he could simply stand next to the plane and be gone within 5 minutes. Ken also always has a supply of chilled beers with him. He will be available to us 24/7 during the trip.

11:00

Arrival at Inverness Airport

Departure from Amsterdam Schiphol

11:30

Transfer to the "Lodge"

12:30

Simple Lunch on the terrace

A simple lunch will be served, naturally with a glass of wine. We need to purchase these ourselves, or bring them from the Netherlands. If we know which wines are preferred, we can of course arrange all of this.

13:00

Drinks

19:00

Dinner in the Fishing Lodge

Tonight, a local private chef will present an 8-course dinner with everything Scotland stands for. It is quite a long sitting, and the portions are not small… Scottish, we might say.

23:00

Topping off in the Jacuzzi

In the photo, you see the lodge on the right and the fishermen’s cottage on the left, where fishermen can eat and drink. On the first evening, this will be transformed into a restaurant (we don’t want to do this in our own lodge, due to kitchen odors), where there is also a jacuzzi where you can possibly enjoy a slightly stronger drink before going to sleep!

DAY 2 - FISHING

August 26, 2026

Today, as yesterday, you will receive lessons in mastering fly fishing under the guidance of a Ghillie. It is not easy, gentlemen, but it is the best time to catch something! The fishing beat, as it is called, is one of the 3 best fishing spots in Scotland.

23:20

Transfer to the Lodge

DAY 3 - GOLF NAIRN LINKS

August 27, 2026

Today you will play golf on the birthplace where we at Beyond Expectations fell in love with Scotland (provided it is dry, of course). Nairn Links is an old course with a great history. Allie, the starter, will assign a caddie. Dinner tonight will be in a small local restaurant with a Scottish couple who thought that not everything needs to be fried. Oh yes, you are also directly in a wine shop, so you can choose the wine, with corkage… and they really have a lot, and good ones.

By popular demand, back from being away. Eating at Alfie’s in the Riverhouse can once again count on chaos, lots of food and drink, but with a Scottish smile.

21:00

Transfer to Inverness / Lodge

DAY 4 - CLAY PIGEON AND AVIEMORE GOLF CLUB

August 28, 2026

A busy day today. Early start, because we are going clay pigeon shooting, under supervision in one of the most beautiful shooting associations we know. You will be taken into the forest, and no matter how good you are… they have dozens of machines with speeds and numbers that you have never seen before. After shooting, enjoy a hamburger sandwich upon arrival at the golf club, 18 holes in the buggy. Afterwards, we suggest quickly returning to the bus, because after all, Ken also has beer in the bus towards the lodge, or directly to Alfie’s restaurant (owner). Really a top restaurant with quality fish.

You can choose to go home on the 28th after golfing, but then you will miss Inverness by night. And if you still stick around…. then you should also play Castle Stuart the next morning after breakfast. (no. 54 in the world, no. 9 in Scotland and no. 19 UK). You must have played this one. Tee times have been requested as well as the caddies.
