Inverness, Northern Highlands, Orkney and ShetlandInverness, the Highland capital, offers a wide range of accommodation, shopping and entertainment. It is a good base for exploring Loch Ness, Culloden Battlefield, Fort George, and Cawdor Castle. Just along the coast is Nairn, a peaceful little golf resort, with fine sandy beaches.
To the north across the Beauly Firth is the Black Isle, with the picturesque old Scots burgh of Cromarty at its tip. There are other attractive and typically Scottish towns nearby, including Tain and Dornoch, with its cathedral and famous golf course.
Continuing north, Dunrobin Castle and Gardens at Golspie and the Castle of Mey in Caithness are ‘must visits’ while the Wick Heritage Museum has an excellent display on the once famous herring fishing industry.

Scrabster to Stromness is the main ferry crossing for Orkney and its wealth of prehistoric sites with Skara Brae, Maes Howe and the Ring of Brodgar perhaps the most famous. Stromness, strung out along its sheltered bay, has plenty of character, while Kirkwall’s skyline is dominated by the 12th-century St Magnus Cathedral. As the main town of the islands, it has a good selection of shops, notably for crafts and jewellery.
Shetland is the most northerly island group in the UK and has ferry connections with Aberdeen and Kirkwall. Lerwick is by far the largest town. The modern Shetland Museum tells the islands’ story. Shetland is noted for its wildlife. Boat trips from Lerwick go out to the island of Noss with its spectacular seabird colonies. The Broch of Mousa is another unmissable trip.
Scotland’s north coast is wild and rugged. Accommodation is to be found in scattered small communities such as Melvich, Bettyhill and Durness. Smoo Cave is a popular visitor stop-off. Breathtaking scenery continues down the western seaboard - where Handa island is another must for nature lovers.
Further south the ferry-port of Ullapool with its white-washed houses and harbour makes an excellent base for exploring the north west. Here there is a good choice of accommodation and places to eat.
To the west, many visitors enjoy Inverewe Gardens; thriving in the mild airs of the Gulf Stream. Gairloch has fine beaches and also a golf course, plus a good local museum. Close by is Loch Maree and its many pine-clad islands, and Torridon with some of Scotland’s most spectacular mountains.

Cairngorms, Aberdeen and TaysideThis is an area of contrasts, taking in both Lowland and Highland. Aberdeen, as Scotland’s third-largest city, has plenty of accommodation and night-life, and all the bustle of a North Sea port, but also gives easy access via Royal Deeside to the Cairngorms National Park. Similarly, the city of Dundee, like Aberdeen, offers shopping, entertainment plus a thriving cultural life, but it is also within easy reach the hills and glens of the Highlands.
The coast is superb. You’ll discover old fishing ports, historic harbours and long golden beaches stretching from Findhorn on
the Moray Firth all the way down to Lunan Bay in Angus. Spectacular cliffs and seabird colonies can be explored around Banff and Stonehaven. Troup Head boasts the only mainland colony of gannets in Britain.
This is the place to discover Scotland’s best known malt whisky distilleries, especially along the valley of the River Spey, and on the signposted Malt Whisky Trail. It also has some of Scotland’s most famous castles, such as Glamis in Angus, Blair in Perthshire, and Crathes on Royal Deeside, with its beautiful gardens. The River Spey and the Dee, along with the Tay, are just

a few of the rivers in this area that are especially popular with salmon anglers.
The region offers some of the most spectacular driving routes in Scotland: from Balmoral and Deeside via The Lecht and into Strathspey; from the Lowlands into Highland Perthshire via Crieff, the Sma’ Glen and on to Aberfeldy; or the mountain route to Aberdeenshire via Glenshee - the highest main road in Scotland. In general, the glens of Highland Perthshire are made for touring and offer a variety of round trips and loops, via Lochs Earn, Tay or Tummel.
The towns of the area all have something special to offer. Aviemore and Grantown-on-Spey, at the heart of the Cairngorms National Park, give easy access to the ancient native pinewoods of Rothiemurchus and Abernethy; Elgin leads down to the
‘whisky country’ of the Lower Spey; Kirriemuir offers a base for exploring the peaceful upper reaches of the Angus Glens. Little resort towns like Dunkeld or Pitlochry are great centres for discovering the ‘Big Tree Country’ - Perthshire and its record-breaking trees, which include the oldest living tree in Europe and also the world’s tallest hedge! This area also includes the prosperous town of Perth, with its fine Georgian architecture second only to Edinburgh’s New Town.

This is a region of islands, steep mountains, long sheltered sea-lochs and some of Scotland’s best scenery. There are good links to all the islands via the Caledonian MacBrayne ferries with flexible ticketing options.
For some of Britain’s most amazing mountain landscapes, visit the Isle of Skye. View the Cuillin Hills on an excursion from the island ‘capital’, Portree, via Glen Brittle - or from Elgol, reached from Broadford. Aside from the scenery, popular Skye attractions include Talisker Distillery and Dunvegan Castle.
On the mainland the pretty village of Plockton, close to Kyle of Lochalsh, is worth a detour. The road south from
here goes past the much photographed Eilean Donan Castle and on through spectacular Kintail.
Fort William, ‘Scotland’s Outdoor Capital’ sits in the shadows of Ben Nevis, Britain’s highest mountain. Nearby is Nevis Range, with its skiing and mountain biking, and Glencoe, a mecca for climbers.
Further south the busy little resort and ferry port of Oban has lots of accommodation and plenty to do, including visiting the many gardens in the area - look out for the ‘Glorious Gardens of Argyll’ leaflet. To the south-west, Inveraray is a picturesque little town, with Inveraray Jail and Inveraray Castle just two of the attractions here.
West Highlands and Islands
27
South of Inveraray lies Cowal ‘Argyll’s Secret Coast’, an area of stunning scenery, forests, sea-lochs and mountains with pretty villages such as Tighnabruaich which overlook the Kyles of Bute. Easily accessible and less than two hours from Glasgow, Dunoon is the largest town. The ‘Cowal Way’ attracts many walkers and there are opportunities for a wide range of outdoor activities on land and sea. Rothesay is the only town on the Island of Bute, a traditional resort with a story told in its local museum. Mount Stuart is also a popular attraction.
Other islands worth visiting are Islay & Jura, with nine malt whisky distilleries, abundant wildlife, and fantastic scenery. Also Colonsay and Gigha, both with notable gardens. Lismore is famous for its walks, views and wild flowers. Oban is the gateway to Mull, where Tobermory is the picturesque main town. Many visitors
to Mull also take in the peaceful, beautiful little island of Iona.
From Oban there is a ferry to Lochboisdale in South Uist, in the Outer Hebrides. The southern portion of this island chain, notably Barra, Eriskay, and the Uists is an unspoilt area, rich in wildlife, with empty beaches facing the open Atlantic.
Further north, the largest island, collectively Lewis and Harris, is noted for one of Britain’s most important prehistoric sites, the Calanais Standing Stones and some of Scotland’s most beautiful beaches. This island chain is also a stronghold of the Gaelic language. The main town is Stornoway, where island culture can be explored at An Lanntair and heritage at the Museum nan Eilean.

Scotland’s capital, Edinburgh, is an internationally renowned holiday destination. It has a vibrant year-round cultural life. Among its many attractions are Edinburgh Castle, Scotland’s National Museum and National Galleries, as well as a wide range of shopping, eating and drinking and entertainment options.
The area around it, the Lothians, is easily accessible from the city and includes the resort and golfing towns of the East Lothian coast - Gullane, Dunbar and North
Berwick, the famous Rosslyn Chapel in Midlothian, and historic towns such as Linlithgow in West Lothian. Linlithgow Palace is associated with Mary Queen of Scots - one of many historic houses easily accessible from Edinburgh.
The Forth-Clyde Canal at Falkirk is the site of the innovative Falkirk Wheel, a unique canal boat lift. On the north side of the Forth Valley, the Hillfoots towns of Tillicoultry and Alva are noted for their textile heritage. Castle Campbell is also a popular attraction.
South East Scotland

The old Kingdom of Fife lies to the east. The main town in the west of Fife is Dunfermline, the birthplace of Andrew Carnegie. His story is told in a dedicated museum. Continuing east, Falkland Palace in picturesque Falkland is popular. The south-facing coastal villages in the ‘East Neuk’ of Fife are likewise attractive, especially Crail. Nearby Anstruther is the setting for the Scottish Fisheries Museum.
North-East Fife has a large choice of golf courses, with St Andrews known as ‘the Home of Golf’. This attractive university town, with its ruined cathedral and castle, has many excellent shops and a wide range of accommodation.
South of Edinburgh, the Lothian countryside gives way to the Scottish Borders. Peebles is popular, within easy distance of the city, and has good
accommodation and shops. Border towns such as Galashiels and Hawick are particularly associated with the textile industry, with mills and mill shops to explore. Kelso, Selkirk and Coldstream are other interesting Border communities.
The development of textiles in this area was originally the work of medieval monks. The remains of the four great Border Abbeys: Melrose, Kelso, Dryburgh and Jedburgh are well worth seeing. The Scottish Borders also has a number of stately homes open in the main season; these include Manderston and Mellerstain, with Thirlestane and Floors Castle also popular. Abbotsford House, Gardens and Visitor Centre are also worth a visit.

This area takes in Glasgow, Scotland’s largest city, and old-established tourism areas as well as the Clyde coast with its string of traditional resorts and golfing centres.
Glasgow has an excellent choice of accommodation at all prices, as well as plenty of museums and other visitor attractions. The city centre has some outstanding Victorian architecture. Glasgow’s pubs, restaurants and clubs make their contribution to its vibrant nightlife, as well as its reputation for friendliness. As for shopping: Glasgow is the UK’s second largest retail location.
Glasgow also lies within easy reach of Loch Lomond, Scotland’s largest loch by surface area and a very popular excursion from the city. Nearby is the famous Trossachs, with its own lochs and wooded hills. Gateways here include Aberfoyle and Callander. An excursion on Loch Katrine on the SS Sir Walter Scott is the essential Trossachs experience!
Stirling lies to the east, its once strategically important castle still dominating the town skyline and certainly on any visitor’s ‘must see’ list. There is a good range of accommodation here.

South of Glasgow, the Clyde coast is popular with golfers, with towns like Prestwick, Troon and Ayr offering a choice of courses. Ayr is associated with the poet Robert Burns, with Burns’ Cottage in Alloway one of Scotland’s oldest visitor attractions, though only one of many venues associated with him.
The island of Arran is another popular holiday destination and has attracted visitors for generations. Brodick and the ferry terminal are close to Brodick Castle, noted for its rhododendron collection.
South of Ayr, Culzean Castle is the National Trust for Scotland’s most popular property. From here it is an easy journey south to Galloway. The Galloway Forest
Park in the west of the area is the largest forest park in the UK. Loch Trool is reckoned to be its most picturesque part. The forest park can be explored from places such as Newton Stewart and New Galloway.
Castle Douglas is a good base for discovering local attractions such as Threave Gardens while Kirkcudbright is a very attractive little town, once noted for its artists’ colony. The main centre for the south-west is Dumfries, with lots of accommodation, a good choice of shops, plus a number of places associated, once again, with Robert Burns, who spent the last years of his life there.
