Top 10 Attractions in Scotland
The beauty and culture of Scotland has made it a firm favourite with families on caravan holidays in the UK – plus you don’t even have to change your currency! Here are ten great reasons to enjoy a holiday in Scotland this year.
Isle of Skye
An unmissable destination on your Parkdean Holiday Scotland is the breathtaking Isle of Skye, in the Scottish Highlands. Particularly favoured by walkers, you can also explore the Isle by boat, but don’t forget your camera.
Arthur’s Seat
For the best views of Edinburgh on your caravan holiday visit Arthur’s Seat, one of four hill forts dating back over 2000 years. It’s also rich with wildlife, volcanic geology and relaxing walking trails.
Linn O’Dee
Scotland is famous for its natural places of beauty, and Linn O’Dee is one of the best. Make sure you visit this stunning waterfall on your caravan holiday in Aberdeen, as well as the nearby Victorian castle trail.
Orkney Islands
One of the best spots for seal spotting in the UK is the Orkney Islands, and you won’t have to look far to see a seal sprawled out on a rock! It’s one of the most unforgettable places you could visit on a caravan holiday in Scotland.
Royal Yacht Britannia
Take a trip onto this floating palace to discover what life was like on the Royal Yacht Britannia, the home of the Royal Family for over 40 years and now docked permanently in Edinburgh.
Loch Ness
Whether or not you believe that a mythical underwater creature inhabits its waters, the stunning scenery of Loch Ness makes it a wonderful place to visit whilst on caravan holidays in Scotland.
Caingorm Mountains
Scotland is far from sunny most of the year, but an upside to this is that you can go skiing on the slopes in the Caingorm Mountains! If that’s not your cup of tea, the mountains also offer great opportunities for birdwatching, fishing and climbing.
Tunnock’s Chocolate Factory
If you’re planning your caravan holiday in Glasgow quite far in advance, you might be lucky enough to get a place on a Tunnock’s Chocolate Factory Tour! Waiting lists to explore the factory are over a year long – but failing that, you’ll still be able to find the teacakes and biscuits in the local shops.
Ben Nevis
A popular destination for walkers and rock climbers, Ben Nevis is the highest mountain in the UK – but there are plenty of footpaths if you’d prefer to take the easy route.
Palace of Holyroodhouse
It wouldn’t be a caravan holiday in Scotland without a visit to a castle! The Palace of Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh has housed some of Scotland’s most famous monarchs, including Mary Queen of Scots and Bonnie Prince Charlie.
