#Scotland: See & Do

A3. The darker nights and starlit skies in winter make the #NorthCoast500 the perfect place to spot the #NorthernLights! https://t.co/HabKWARsdG

A3. #DidYouKnow that some of our sites can only be visited during the summer? Thereโs no time like the present to see where Mary Queen of Scots was imprisoned at Lochleven Castle or discover the stronghold of the mighty earls of Mar at Kildrummy Castle. #ScotlandHour
A3: Plenty to see at the castle all year around, but we do love the variety of flowers in our Queen Anne Gardens during the summer months. #ScotlandHour
A4. Travel through a land of breathtaking landscapes, secretive hill lochs, mist shrouded mountain peaks and Mediterranean style beaches as you begin (or end) your journey along the #NorthCoast500.

Call me depressing, but I'm a big fan of anything that's a bit ruined or abandoned. Largely because it looks like nobody has been there in a good long while and they won't be coming along any time soon. #Scotlandhour
A4. With its seaboard villages, Easter Ross is full of history & romance โ an area blessed with a fabulous pictish past, unsurpassed views & malt whisky distilleries!

A4 #Argyll and #Isles has it all for us, drink, seafood, history, lochs, glens, beaches, wildlife. Maybe a little wetter at times, but equally as stunning no matter what time you visit #scotlandhour @VisitScotland @ScotlandHour #scotlandisnow #scotland @ThePhotoHour @StormHour
A4 Weโve also taken a real shine to #perthshire recently, #Kenmore area in particular #scotlandhour @VisitScotland @ScotlandHour #scotlandisnow #scotland @ThePhotoHour @StormHour
A4 This has to be the costal areas and Isles which lends themselves for some truly magical holidays. Something new to see and explore, which each region and island very unique #Scotlandhour #YCW2020
replying to @ScotlandHour @ScotlandHour A4. The big cities can be seen as giving the best bang for your buck in a concentrated area with plenty of choice of events, hotels, food and scenery but I've come to love Arran @VisitArran in recent years. Friendly, great views, great food, local gin and produce. #scotlandhour
A4. Turn off the main road and head inwards to discover the wild, dramatic, less discovered and more remote Scottish Highlands!
Here are some of our top detours along the #NC500

A4. It's difficult to beat the Outer Hebrides when it comes to showcasing Scotland #scotlandhour
replying to @ScotlandHour @ScotlandHour A3 #scotlandhour. Visit when there are many seasons in a day!
A4. From the dramatic north western scenery where mountains meet the sea, to the varied lands of the east, travel round the North Coast of Scotland to get a taste of everything the #NorthCoast500 has to offer.

#scotlandhour A5: Top 3, no.1: Culture! Scottish hospitality is famed for its healthy balance of friendly familiarity and biting humour! Our team here at the Ardgowan and Playfair's certainly has plenty of both!
