Tourist information offices should be able to supply brochures titled The Whisky Trail or The Castle Trail with maps plotting the numerous locations around the coast/NE of Scotland. I was born and bred there. It's the most underrated part of the British Isles and in my view has more to offer than any other part of Britain in terms of beauty. Don't miss the coastal cliff walks/beaches which easily outclass Cornwall . A visit to Dunnotar Castle outside Aberdeen is a must -- so much to see and enjoy!
