Along Scotland’s coasts, you’ll find plenty of pretty fishing villages, ancient kirks, craggy castles and cosy pubs waiting to be discovered. That’s before you’ve even thought about the wide sandy beaches or glided by boat past the lighthouses of its rocky shores.

For an outdoor holiday, you can revel in the spectacular landscapes. There are hills of all sizes to conquer – from Arthur’s Seat overlooking Edinburgh to the mountain of Ben Nevis – and a range of trails to suit all hiking abilities.
