Holiday in Scotland

Posted by on

Hi there
Me and my wife are taking a short holiday to the UK, starting 16th Sept 2017. Post a small stint in London, we aim to spend about 5-6 days in Scotland. Although I have been to Scotland before, my wife hasnt. I had covered Edinburgh, Stirling, Glasgow, Inverness and Isle of Skye. I am still keen to visit Edinburgh and Isle again as I am sure my wifes gonna love it, wanted to check if you guys can recon some more interesting places. We'd love the more highlands and peaceful side along with some cruising or beach maybe? Nothing fixed, but just aiming to do some newer parts as well. Maybe higher up the Highlands or Luskentyre of you guys feel so?

Thank you

For "highlands and peaceful side" might I suggest Inveraray? If you rent a car, it is an easy half day's drive from Edinburgh. It's a charming Georgian town, the castle is beautiful inside and out, and the surrounding area has interesting stuff like the Auchindrain Township outdoor museum.

Or, if you want to see an especially nice beach, go to Nairn, which is east of Inverness on the Moray Firth.

If you have not been I would suggest Mull rather than Skye, and get out to Iona. However Mull is the island of the Single Track road and a car is essential.
