Self-catering accommodation in Highlands And Islands

A region of striking contrasts on the outermost fringe of Europe, here you will find thousands of square miles of freedom, peace and tranquillity: magnificent countryside, numerous islands, lots to see and do, quiet roads and very few people.

In this Northern part of Scotland you can be enchanted and mesmerised by the historic Orkney and Shetland Isles; the rolling landscape of Caithness and stunned by the sheer beauty of Sutherland and Wester Ross.

More about the Highlands And Islands

The wildest landscapes. The deepest lochs. The most majestic mountains. The remotest glens. As well as the rarest wildlife. No wonder the Scottish Highland were the perfect inspiration for Disney's Brave!

From the pretty Highland capital of Inverness, the road to Ullapool beckons. From there, deserted roads lead to remote Wester Ross and the heathery moorland of Caithness and Sutherland, with strangely shaped mountains like Stac Pollaidh, Suilven and Canisp.

All surrounded by a coast offering everything from mighty sea cliffs and long sandy beaches to small fishing villages nestling in sheltered bays.

Then there are the islands. The Orkney and Shetland archipelagos to the North, Skye and its satellites to the West and beyond, the mythical, mystical Outer Hebrides. All ready and waiting to be explored.

Whether your interest is walking, cycling, fishing, golf or water-sports (or all of the above) you really will be spoilt for choice.

On the other hand, you may decide to do nothing more than sit still and drink in the ancient, yet breath-taking, scenery.

Decisions, decisions!
