With some of the most epic scenery on the planet, the finest fresh produce and a proud reputation for extending visitors a warm welcome, Scotland is the perfect destination for a luxury hotel stay. And what remarkable luxury hotels the country boasts. Posh places to stay sprang up as long ago as the 19th century, when Queen Victoria fell hopelessly in love with the Highlands, forging her castle home at Balmoral and spearheading tourism in Scotland.
Today, Scotland is supremely well set up for discerning travellers, with luxury hotels dotted throughout the length and breadth of the country. Think hot tubs amongst the heather, cosy drams by the fire after Michelin-starred feasts, and a tough choice to make between a round of golf on one of the world’s top courses, or a sumptuous spa treatment using organic Scottish seaweed products.
