Of all the destinations caravanning types put on their wish list, Scotland’s often one that features somewhere up near the top. And with good reason… for this is a land of many many (many many many) scenic spots, countless outdoor activities, miles of stunning coastline, heaps of historic sights, fab food (haggis, obviously, but also fresh seafood, cheeses, shortbread…) and of course the water of life itself (that’s the whisky – originally ‘uisge beatha’– that warms many an evening around these parts).Edinburgh is the country’s capital and second largest city (Glasgow being the largest) and was the hub of the Scottish Enlightenment in the 18th century, which transformed Scotland into one of the commercial, intellectual, and industrial powerhouses in Europe. Today there’s plenty to do in and around Edinburgh. Scotland is world renowned for being home to some of the UK’s most spectacular scenery – so why not get that little bit closer with a touring caravan or camping holiday? What's great about Scotland? With thousands of beaches of every kind, from remote island coves to wide sweeping bays, it will be no surprise that surfing, windsurfing, sailing, fishing and pretty much any water sport you can imagine can be enjoyed in the country - including coasteering and canyoning.

Uniquely placed on the northern shores of Loch Linne, this touring park truly makes the most of Scotland’s natural beauty. Visitors can enjoy ethereal views of the water and surrounding mountains from their pitch, venture out on a guided mountain walk or even scale the mighty Ben Nevis nearby. Scotland boasts many castles in various states. Some of the best to visit include Edinburgh Castle, Balmoral Castle and Stirling Castle.And with 8 holiday parks spread across Scotland’s coastline and countryside, you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to finding your next holiday destination. Head to the awe- inspiring Glasgow Cathedral for a delightful example of Scottish gothic architecture. On the other hand, you may be of the opinion that by opting for a caravan break rather than a hotel stay you’ve earned yourself the right to a few luxuries… and this sounds like an excellent reason to seek out a Scotland touring park with a swimming pool (either indoor or outdoor, depending on your level of hardiness) or somewhere you can take a long soak in a hot tub.

The Riverside Museum in Glasgow is free to enter and has exhibits on vintage cars, ships, trams and much more. Just outside of the museum on the river you can board the S. S. Glenlee which is a real favourite with kids. If you prefer a theme to your hols, several fine ones suggest themselves. Outdoor types might like to set themselves a munro-bagging challenge (that’s conquering Scotland’s peaks over 3000 feet… although you may need a few trips to get up all 282 of them) or taking a tour of the many gorgeous golf courses around the country. Or how about a scenic road trip on the famed North Coast 500 (or the lesser-known but equally splendid Argyll Coastal Route or North East 250), or a little jaunt around the Malt Whisky Trail?What makes it such a special place? Well, the friendly folk, the delicious haggis and the cultural delights of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe (the biggest arts festival in the world, no less) all go some way towards explaining its unique character… as does the odd dram of local whisky here and there.
