@VisitScotlandMarina, not at all. May I join your club for people that have never seen Harry Potter? I only know that J.K.Rowling has a house in Aberfeldy, Perthshire. It is called "Killiechassie"

Where in Uig are you staying? Make sure that you know the check-in times of your accommodation. Most places only do check in between 3pm - 7pm unless they have been contact prior the arrival date. Uig from Inverness is approx. a 3 hour drive witho…

Hi @cmwags, Yes Scotland uses miles and not kilometers. The sign at Craig na Dun is actually a memorial at the car park to Schiehallion mountain. Craig na Dun (not an actual place but is a part of farming land) is just off the same road approx 2 mil…

@Scotland_on_my_mind Mhor Fish has now closed its doors for the last time!

@URI, i have never encountered midges in Pitlochry! Maybe if you are in the woods they might be there.

Hi @Phnert, As a Golf Pro I can really recommend Archerfield Links or even Craigielaw. Musselburgh Links is the oldest golf course in the world. You should really play this! Hope that helps Best wishes fishypro

@URI, you heard some good advice, "keep moving" otherwise plaster yourself in "Avon Skin so soft" or carry a can of "Smidge" with you. Don't forget the face mask with a net on it!

Hi @Adsagsona, In Portree you can eat cheap & well at the Cafe Arriba (locals hangout). Glasgow try Mother India's Cafe, it serves Indian food on small plates so order a few of them. Inverness has Rocpool restaurant which is excellent. If you ta…

Hi Salva, Scotland can be really pleasant in May. The crowds are still small and the temperatures can be quite nice but not anything like 30°. It can, however, be in the 20s. You should make sure that you pack lots of thin layers like the Scots do. …

Hi @mustseescotland, There are lots of places to find Highland Cows. I live in Pitlochry and we have a few of them on the left side of the road as you exit the A9 to drive in to the town. Also at the gates of Blair Castle there are usually two or th…

Hi @Starflight, A simple answer to a simple question. It is always better to buy your tickets in advance. Enjoy your visit to Rosslyn Chapel.

Hi @dawnus75, You have a great plan ahead of you. The roads in Scotland may be quieter if you avoid the school holidays and weekends! If the weather is good then there tends to be massive crowds where ever you go! April tends to be a good month for …

Hi @David_66 , take a look at Pitlochry. It is very central and has wonderful outdoor activities including walking, cycling, mountainbiking, hiking, fishing, golfing, bungee jumping to name but a few. Close by is Grandtully & Aberfeldy where you…

@VisitScotlandAmanda, it is the best film ever, more comedy than anything else. It is like a modern day Robin hood on a motorbike. You really support the Clown & The Wolfman!

Great topic, I love all of the above films but please may I add a childhood favourite of mine: The Clown & The Wolf-Man

@Patsyloo, my favourite restaurant in Oban is "The Coast". It is a 2 rosette kitchen and the prices are really cheap for the quality of food that you get! You will need to book a table! Hope that helps!

Hi @wetwolf , What about trying the wonderful town of Pitlochry before heading up towads the Cairngorm National Park to Aviemore. The town of Pitlochry has wonderful distilleries including Edradour & Blair Athol. Great pubs to eat in like The Ol…

@ankalbilly, Servus! in my opinion the best & cheapest deals can be found by "Arnold Clarke" They are cheaper because their offices are not located at airports or railway stations etc. They don't have the huge rents to pay so the prices stay a …
