PLAN YOUR ESCAPE

HOW YOUR ESCAPE TAKES SHAPE

We curate each trip around you: your interests, what you wish to learn, and the landscapes and specialists that resonate most with you.

Start by telling us what you have in mind, whether it’s a family holiday, a different way to explore Scotland or a trip with your team. We’ll use this as the starting point to create your bespoke experience.

Tell us which experiences spark your interest, from learning traditional skills and exploring wild landscapes to enjoying exceptional food or taking time to unwind.

Spend two to three days with one specialist around their area of expertise or bring together different members of the Collective across the escape.

Once we understand what you’re looking for and the experiences you’d like to include, we’ll bring together the right team. Your escape can centre on one specialist and their expertise, or draw on several members of the Collective for a broader range of experiences.

01 ABOUT THE HOTEL

Monachyle Mhor Hotel sits in the heart of The Trossachs National Park - peaceful, remote, and surrounded by some of Scotland’s most spectacular landscapes. Nestled between two lochs and framed by five Munros right on the doorstep, it feels a world away - yet it’s only a few hours from both Edinburgh and Glasgow.

Chef & Owner Tom Lewis, a proud Food and Drink Ambassador for Scotland, runs the hotel with wife Lisa May Lewis and brother Dick Lewis. Their focus is on honest hospitality and proper food - seasonal, thoughtful, and as farm-to-fork as it gets. Much of what’s served comes straight from the family farm, the kitchen garden, the surrounding hills, or within a 30-mile radius.

The hotel itself is full of character, each room individually designed, balancing comfort with personality. Step outside and you’re in a natural playground. That’s where RVIVAL comes in: together, we offer bespoke outdoor experiences that get you into the wild from cold-water swimming and foraging to guided hikes and survival skills, all led by our team of specialists.

02 TRAVEL TO & FROM

Kelly Cooper Barr

"Monachyle Mhor is one of my favourite places in the world. Whenever I’m in Scotland I try to visit that magical place. The last time I visited my sister Lisa Lewis & Eliza Brown of Revival Experiences organised a special surprise for me and my friends. They said were are going on a ‘Pack Pony Picnic!’ I had no idea what that was! Day 2 at Mhor we put on our walking gear and joined the girls who were packing up stuff onto two white ponies. We led the beautiful creatures up the glen road and through stunning woods. After about 90 mins we stopped by a stream where Eliza & Lisa set up a camp complete with a fire, tent and chairs. The horses had a rest and we dined on a delicious picnic of meats, cheeses & bread. Champagne corks were popped and stories around the campfire were exchanged. A light rain did not put a dampener on it, it actually added to the flavour of the day. My friends and I were overwhelmed with gratitude to share such a special experience. I can’t recommend it enough."
