Places to Visit

Scotland may not always guarantee the best of weather - but there will always be plenty of things to do and places to visit. IN FACT - it is often the backdrop of a misty loch, the dark brooking landscape or the snow covered moorland that really delivers those unforgettable images of Scotland in all its glory.

Some of the most memorable places are often those which you stumble upon, which are out off the beaten track or which you might only find if told about through friends, acquaintances or through connections such as Luxury Scotland.

In the months ahead we aim to bring you details of these hidden gems and how to find them.

Scotland's Garden Scheme - is part of a national organisation that started in 1927 when Miss Elsie Wagg of the Queen's Nursing Institute had the bright idea of raising funds for that charity by persuading people to open their private gardens to the public for 'a shilling a head.' From those modest beginnings and with only a few mostly large-scale gardens opening for the benefit of a single charity - it has grown to become nothing less than a national institution. With three and a half thousand gardens, of every possible size and style this is a real treasure chest for any garden enthusiast and the scheme raising over a million pounds a year for nearly a dozen charities.
