If you are looking for a holiday in the UK then a holiday cottage in Scotland is the ideal place and a hire car is advised so that you can travel around and see the great views that Scotland has to offer, but make sure that you’re not driving it if you visit one of the famous distillerys because you will want to sample the best malt whisky in the world, Scotland also has national parks, lochs and mountains that are truly magnificent and some great salmon fishing not to mention the wonderful golf courses in Scotland.

One of the best places in Scotland is the Trossachs National Park, it is less than an hour from Glasgow and the centerpiece of it is Loch Lomond which has the largest expanse of freshwater in Britain, the national park has forests, lochs, mountains and deep valleys, if you prefer to get a holiday cottage further north east then you can’t do better than the Cairngorms National Park, it is the largest National Park in the UK, it has an ‘arctic wilderness’ and some of Scotlands largest peaks, the Scottish National Parks were estabished between 2001 and 2003 to preserve them for future generations.

If you get a holiday cottage just outside Glasgow or Edinburgh (where the major airports are) you can drive northwest up to the Highlands and then come down the east coast before returning to your starting point, this will give you some great views and a good idea of what Scotland is all about, you will be able to visit places of historical interest like castles and abbeys and you will learn about Robert the Bruce, Mary Queen of Scots and Bonnie Prince Charlie, of course if do get a holiday cottage in Scotland you don't have to visit all these historic places you can just enjoy the views, the fishing and the local hospitality.
