Hello and welcome. I'm John, and this site is your complete guide to Scotland, whether visiting or resident, with information on travel, what's on, where to go, What to See, our culture, our history, and our castles.
Why do visitors return year after year?
Well actually, people come for all of these reasons, and many more.
The fact is they keep coming back, and they fall in love with the place.
WOW! That's a fair introduction!
Anyone would think I'm trying to 'sell' the country ...... AND I AM!
So do I now have to turn on the sales patter to convince you?
No, I just have to write from the heart, and it'll become obvious that Scotland doesn't need much selling ...... not when you ..........
Discover the attractions .......

It's well known that visitors love Scotland for our history, our culture and our attractions, especially Our Castles, the lochs and mountains that surround our beautiful countryside, and great museums & architecture.....
Not to mention the world famous events that take place in Edinburgh, our capital, and the fantastic nightlife and shopping in the Scottish cities.
Discover the culture .......

At the risk of not doing my country sufficient justice, I will try my best to introduce you to the true flavour of Scottish Culture and traditions. What I will be writing about on this site is an individual account of everything the country has to offer, (well, OK, make that almost everything) but it is based on my personal experiences, and, of course, a lifetime of living here.

Discover all there is to see and do .......

You may ask why I decided to build a website about Scotland. The answer to that is ... it's something I'm passionate about! I know, there
are many excellent websites on the subject already, but I love this place.
Anyway, enough rambling on .......
Save on flights and accommodation .......
You can make substantial savings on travel by customising your trip with fantastic deals on Flights & Hotels. If hotels don't appeal, why not spoil yourself with a stay in one of our Scotland Holiday Rentals. Or find some peace and relaxation in one of our Holiday Cottages in quiet but stunning locations throughout the country, there are many to choose from.
