West Coast Scotland
One of my personal favourite areas in Scotland, I return to the West Coast and Western Highlands time and time again.
This is an area of dramatic and unforgettable scenery: wild beaches, mountainscapes, breathtaking sunsets, and of course, iconic islands like the Isle of Skye.
There’s history too: Eilean Donan Castle is a must-visit on your route west.
It’s a place to savour a slower pace of life amongst quaint villages like Plockton, Glenelg, and Arisaig. To enjoy boutique hotels, devour exceptional seafood, and soak in gorgeous sunsets.
