The Scottish Highlands 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 Strathpeffer area
The spa village of Strathpeffer grew up in the 18th Century and in 1819 the water was declared to be the healthiest in Britain. Having been restored to its former glory, the Spa Pavilion is used for various events throughout the year including concerts and exhibitions. There is a museum of childhood and working craft shops all housed in a former Victorian railway station. The pump house offers visitors a chance to ‘take the waters’ and is also home to a Tourist Information point. There are forest walks to be enjoyed and a walk to the Pictish Hill Fort at the top of Knock Farril, also known as Knock Farrel, will be well rewarded with panoramic views. Strathpeffer is a fascinating base for a great holiday.
