The Hidden Places of Scotland
is a beautifully illustrated guide and explores Scotland in
a relaxed narrative style. It contains a wealth of
interesting information on the history, the countryside, the
towns and villages and the more established visitor
attractions, but it also focuses on promoting the lesser
known places of interest and places to stay, eat and drink.
Scotland is rich in history and
culture and is blessed with some of the most impressive mountains in
the British Isles and finest coastlines and offshore islands
in the world. It is also full of "hidden places", which can
enrich the visitor's knowledge of Scottish heritage and
provide landscapes that astound the eye with their sheer
beauty.
