    Scotland for foodies

    It’s time to indulge your senses! Scotland’s green scenery is not the only feature that draws people to the north of England. In addition to its beauty and natural attractions the culinary scene is one of the best features we must admit as this bountiful land boasts tons of fresh produce. From splashing fresh salmon and trouts to the delicious lobster in the Highlands. The fresh seafood and the shellfish is a delicacy that will raise your taste buds, especially the “Arbroath Smokies''. Try the succulent Aberdeen Angus steaks and the popular and iconic Haggis, made of sheep’s pluck mince with spices, oatmeal, onion and suet. It usually comes with neeps (turnips) and tatties (potatoes). Least but not last, sweet treats will be the icing on the cake after a delicious meal. The Scottish tablet is a piece of heaven with sugar, condensed milk and butter. And the perfect pudding? Sticky toffee pudding! A delicious moist sponge cake with dates, toffee sauce, and vanilla custard or ice cream. Too good to be true? One will never be enough!

The city is loaded with history, architecture and a well-deserved UNESCO World Heritage Site status. If you want to enjoy the Edinburgh Fringe festival , plan your trip in August!

    3. Incomparable trip to the best landscapes

    Many films have used the incomparable settings and lush green landscapes of Scotland as the perfect backdrop for magic stories or medieval battles. The Harry Potter series or Braveheart are some of them. Take some time to explore the mountains, the natural parks, the old castles or the hundreds of lakes and islands and revive those scenes, but now, with you as the main character. You can even climb Ben Nevis, the highest point in the United Kingdom!

    4. Play some golf in St. Andrews

And within the Kingdom of Fife, St. Andrews is the world-famous Home of Golf!

Furthermore, the British Golf Museum in St. Andrews explores around 500 years of British golfing history. What are you waiting for?

    5. Nessie, the Loch Ness monster.

    When you hear Loch Ness, the first image that comes to your mind it’s probably that of the large marine creature that inhabits this lake in the Scottish Highlands, Nessie. Is it a myth? A legend of Scottish folklore? Is it true? Well, the Drumnadrochit Hotel’s Loch Ness Exhibition shows pictures and fascinating exhibits that will challenge even the most skeptical minds.

Visit the famous Eilean Dolean Castle or discover some of the less known gems including Dunrobin Castle, Floors Castle, Fyvie Castle, Culzean Castle and Country Park or Drummond Castle and its beautiful gardens. There is no doubt that Kilburn Castle or Dilerton will make your day as well but for a very different castle, you might want to see Kelburn Castle, depicting interwoven cartoons on the exterior walls, although the interior is lush and sophisticated and it has a magnificent Chinese garden.
