Halibut Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 I'm thinking about taking a short break in Scotland in February or March. Two adults, no kids, looking to get there as economically as possible (not driving) and stay somewhere off the beaten track in comfortable B and B or self catering. Stunning landscape/seaside a bonus. Any ideas gratefully received. Ta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seriessix Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 I have - it's beautiful. If you like the Peaks you'll love it. Saying that though all the islands are pretty rugged and wild up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
