Scotland is a country of brooding mountain peaks hunkered under slate-grey skies, stunning stretches of white-sand beaches with views of distant, misty isles, deep lochs overlooked by crumbling castles and vast, empty moors. So it may come as a surprise to many that Scotland’s real magic lies in its people.
With a landscape that inspires so much imagination, it’s no wonder there is no shortage of storytellers in Scotland with tales, myths and legends to share, and it’s no wonder that often, that same landscape drives the Scottish people in search of a warm hearth, a good dram of whisky and a hearty meal.
Experiencing this side of Scotland, the local, welcoming, hospitable side of the country, is what you will truly remember and take away from your time north of the border, as it’s the unique hidden gems and local experiences you never forget.
