We're considering our holiday options for next year, and Scotland is somewhere I've always fancied exploring. I think its absolutely incredible to look at, and I'm actually a bit gutted I've waited all this time to go.
I think we'd like to do some of the obvious stuff - Loch Ness, A ride on the Jacobite (Hogwarts Express), etc - because I think it is nice to get those sorts of things in there, however I'm interested to see what other places people recommend also visiting.
I like the idea of going to see the countries natural beauty - Things like the Steall Waterfall look amazing, as does the shores of Loch an Eilein, and the white sand and crystal water beach coves around the coast - but I know Scotland has other things to offer.
It would be myself, my wife and our newborn going,He'll be about 7 months then, and I think the best option would be to have 2, ideally no more than 3 places that we would stay as a base and then do things in that immediate area. Holiday length probably 7-10 days. I appreciate that means it would be a whistle stop tour, and lots of things would be missed, but I'm sure we will visit again.
'Clever' planning like having a base near to Fort William to do the Jacobite, and then on the way to a base in the Cairngorns go via Loch Ness for lunch with a view would be how I'd hope to take in more sights.
Keen to hear places that we absolutely must go and see
