Things to do in Scotland
Golf to mountain biking, castle visiting to wildlife watching, island hopping to theatre going - follow up your favourite holiday interests in Scotland!
Early castle sites in Scotland take the form of ‘mottes’ - grass mounds once topped by wooden fortresses, now long gone. A small rectangular stone tower on the island of Wyre, Orkney, Cubbie Row’s Castle, as it is known today, is probably the earliest surviving stone fortress in Scotland, c. 1145.
It was on the links, the undulating sandy stretches of rabbit-cropped coastal turf, that the game of golf developed in Scotland and became especially associated with St Andrews, still sometimes described today as ‘The Home of Golf’.
Well known for its Highland Games, Scotland also has many great festivals, shows, galas and sporting events. You'll also enjoy the colourful Highland Games with the stirring music of pipe bands.
Family days out in Scotland are easy to find with a whole range of attractions, with a variety of themes, catering for the diverse needs of all age groups.
A real Scotland adventure in stunning scenery can take many forms. It may well involve water – everything from gentle canoeing to the adrenalin rush of white water rafting! The holiday adventure experience afloat also takes in sea kayaking, especially around the spectacular western seaboard of Scotland.
Scotland has a great tradition of gardening and horticulture – partly through the work of generations of Scottish plant-hunters, such as David Douglas and George Forrest, who went abroad to bring back new species and give their names to many familiar garden plants of today.
Famed for the excellence of its local produce, Scotland is becoming increasingly well known for the inspiration of its chefs. Whether you are out in the country or the city you'll soon enthuse about eating out in Scotland.
Cinemas and theatres, concert halls and clubs - experience Scotland's cultural life. Most of the venues listed have websites with details of forthcoming programmes and events.
The shopping experience in Scotland is very varied. Though the cities have the ‘High Street’ names, plus some very stylish and exclusive brands, rural areas have plenty of surprises.
