Short Breaks in Scotland

Scotland is known for its dramatic landscapes, historical towns and cities and rich history that has made Scotland what it is today. Why not visit the Scottish Highlands? This vast location is home to the UK’s most impressive mountains, serene lakes and remarkable woodlands that have stood for centuries. The Highlands are home to the UK’s highest mountain, Ben Nevis, which stands at 1,345 metres tall – for anyone looking for a challenge, a climb up to the peak is a must. After a long day exploring or climbing, getting back to a luxurious hotel or lodge would be the perfect antidote. There are also plenty of spa hotels and hot tub weekend breaks available which would certainly soothe the soul after a long day.

For those looking for a city break in Scotland, there are a number of options to choose from. Edinburgh is the ideal location for a Scottish weekend getaway. The city is not only beautiful, but also brimming with activities and things to do, with plenty of food and drink options, too. Alternatively, head over to Glasgow, which has an abundance of museums and galleries to visit, as well as a thriving music scene.

A short break to Scotland would make the perfect gift for any occasion, whether it’s an anniversary surprise or birthday treat. Discover a fantastic selection of Scottish short breaks and weekend getaways from Red Letter Days.
