The Scottish Borders region
From the lush green farmlands of the Borders to the rugged landscapes of the Highlands, the Scots are proud of their land and identity. The beautiful countryside of Dumfries and Galloway is littered with fortresses and strongholds, testimony to its dramatic history. Moving north, the Highlands are to Scotland what the Pyrenees are to France, with equally breathtaking scenery and fantastic opportunities for walking and mountaineering.
Aviemore and the Cairngorms National Park are particularly famous for skiing, whilst Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in Britain at 1343m, is a firm favourite for those seeking a challenge. For the less energetic, the Whisky Trail provides a unique way of exploring many of Scotland’s attractions and for quieter moments, there’s always Loch Ness and a chance to spot the elusive monster! Scotland also has some of Britain’s best and cleanest beaches. Cromarty is famous for its bottle-nosed dolphins and Nairn, whilst claiming to be one of the sunniest and driest places in the country, has glorious stretches of clean sand over which to roam.
Several islands lie off the Scottish coast, each with their own character and heritage, however the Isle of Skye is probably the best known and most visited. As the largest of the Inner Hebrides, Skye’s turbulent geological past has bequeathed it a stunning coastline. Experienced walkers are drawn to the Black Cuillin Mountains, whilst those less experienced have an array of lower level coastal walks from which to choose or alternatively, visitors can take some time to visit Skye’s capital, the charming harbour town of Portree.
The Peebles area
In the beautiful Tweed Valley, amidst the majestic Scottish Border Hills, nestles the old Royal Burgh town of Peebles. The heart of Peebles is the shopping street, home to a wonderful array of great shops, cosy pubs and fine restaurants. The fine weather and unpolluted air of the town, not to mention the art festivals, Highland Games and the famous Beltane Week, help to ensure that visitors keep coming to Peebles all year round. There is a wealth of relaxing parks, gardens, and historical properties to explore, as well as hiking, biking and fishing in the Forest of Tweedale and the Southern Upland Way. The colourful, cosmopolitan city of Edinburgh, with its arts and culture scene and incredible events, is just a short dive away.
