Argyll, the Isles, Loch Lomond, Stirling & the Trossachs Savour the atmosphere of Hebridean islands, the charm of rural villages and the natural frontier separating the West Highlands' rugged grandeur from the gentler beauty of the Lowlands.
Highlands and Skye The Highlands more than live up to their picture-postcard images with majestic scenery, awesome wild places, towering mountains, ancient pine forests and mysterious lochs.
Orkney, Shetland & the Outer Hebrides On the very edge of Europe, Scotland's main island groups offer the perfect escape from the stresses and strains of the modern world.
Aberdeen & Grampian The north-east corner of Scotland is a land of dramatic scenery, mysterious castles, and some very fine whisky.
Ayrshire & Arran Situated on the beautiful Clyde Coast, Ayrshire and the neighbouring isle of Arran is a golfers' paradise and is also home to some of the most prestigious heritage and visitor attractions that Scotland has to offer.
Dumfries & Galloway Enjoy the unspoilt beauty of this corner of Scotland, with its deserted beaches where Robert Burns journeyed on horseback to catch whisky smugglers, and the rugged grandeur of the Galloway Forest Park, a mecca for outdoor enthusiasts.
Edinburgh and Lothians As well as all the attractions that Edinburgh has to offer, the Lothian countryside is steeped in history, filled with castles, great houses and battle sites.
Perthshire, Fife & Angus The Kingdom of Fife is the ancestral home of Scottish monarchs, world-famous for its golf, less known for its beaches and charming fishing villages. Great scenery and wonderful walking are to be found in Perthshire and Angus.
