Elect's take

"Scotland has a quality of landscape and a depth of character that I find genuinely compelling. The combination of dramatic scenery, outstanding whisky, historic cities and the warmth of Scottish hospitality keeps drawing me back."

Edinburgh is one of Europe's great cities. The combination of the medieval Old Town, the Georgian New Town and a cultural scene that peaks during the August Festival creates a city of remarkable depth. The whisky trail across Speyside and Islay is one of the world's great food and drink pilgrimages. The Scottish Highlands provide some of the most dramatic landscapes in Europe. The Isle of Skye with its Quiraing and Old Man of Storr provides some of the most photographed landscapes in the British Isles.
