The Kintyre Peninsula is home to a long stretch of deserted coastline, perfect for an escape from reality.
Despite being less than an hour's drive from the bustle and sprawl of Glasgow, the bonnie braes (banks) of Loch Lomond – immortalized in the words of one of Scotland's best-known songs – comprise one of the most scenic parts of the country. The imposing Gothic Revival spire of Lansdowne Parish Church, designed by John Honeyman, presides over the skyline. It’s 218ft tall and one of the slimmest in Europe. The building is now home to Websters Theatre with a bar and two outside seating areas.The reality of Jura, though, is far from dystopian, though the rainfall can be wearing. Warm your insides on a tasting trip to the Isle of Jura Distillery, which relies on the abundant water supply for its well-regarded single malt. If whisky isn’t your poison, head instead to the Lussa Gin Distillery; while you’re here, you can walk to the northern tip of Jura to view the " Scottish Maelstrom" – a surging whirlpool that becomes a boiling cauldron during flooding spring tides. Commune with birdlife on Unst, Shetland The Glencoe Mountain Ski Resort has excellent snow runs that often remain open into April each year.
Head to Dundee this year, the UK’s only UNESCO city of design. You can start at the V & A Dundee and explore both design heritage and contemporary design. 2022 will see V&A Dundee curate its first major exhibition, running from April to September and focused on the chequered history of tartan; encompassing tradition and rebellion, and exploring its influence on everything from architecture and fashion to product design and performance. Food & Drink:Make a reservation at The Waggon Inn . This family restaurant caters for all tastes and budgets. From their first arrival in late spring to the raucous feeding frenzies of high summer, the vast colonies of gannets, guillemots, skua, puffins and kittiwakes at Hermaness, Noss, Sumburgh Head and Fair Isle provide some of Britain's most impressive birdwatching experiences. Leave the pranksters taking selfies by the Butt of Lewis sign to their fun; the real magic of the largest island in the Western Isles can be found on its beaches. Food & Drink: Stop by Victoria's Vintage Tea Roomsfor tea and cake. Indulge in delicious chocolate brownies, freshly made scones and Victoria sponge, using only the best ingredients.Dark and moody, Jura broods off the west coast of Scotland, reached by a summertime ferry from Tayvallich on the mainland, or year-round boats from nearby Islay. Amongst left-leaning folks and literature buffs, the island is best known as the spot where George Orwell came in 1948 to write the manuscript of 1984. Local shareholders, hundreds of Crowdfunder supporters and a signific ant pay-out from the Scottish Land Fund are all helping make this a reality. The community aims to take ownership in 2022, so this year may be the perfect time to visit for a congratulatory pint. In the summer, The Dundee Summer (Bash) Street Festival takes over the city as part of the Year of Stories. Dundee will be renamed BEANOTOWN and host a comic museum, film screenings, street performances and world-record attempts. Travel:Linlithgow is well served by rail routes connecting with Edinburgh, Glasgow, Falkirk, Stirling and Cumbernauld. The best way to really get inside Scotland's landscapes is to walk them. Here, peaks tower over lochs and sea cliffs gaze over the wind-whipped sea, but there are short woodland trails and charming strolls through valleys dusted with purple heather too. Top of the wish list for many hikers is the 96-mile West Highland Way from Milngavie (near Glasgow) to Fort William, a weeklong walk through some of the country's finest scenery, finishing in the shadow of its highest peak, Ben Nevis.
