GLASGOW, LOCH LOMOND & THE TROSSACHS
The cultural epicentre of Scottish life, ‘The Dear Green Place’ has evolved from its tough, industrial past to become a lively, cosmopolitan city brimming with creativity. Amid an impressive range of civil architecture, friendly and passionate souls from around the world confidently confirm their motto that “People Make Glasgow.”
Shop the luxury stores of Buchanan Street, explore the galleries of GOMA and Kelvingrove, feast in the foodie heaven of Finnieston, see the best bands at the Barrowlands or just enjoy the ‘banter’ to be found in the many traditional pubs and stylish bars. There’s no end of entertainment to be found in Scotland’s second city.
When a little more peace and quiet is required, escape into the heart of Rob Roy MacGregor country to discover the bonnie banks and stunning beauty of Loch Lomond just to the north. This wonderful natural park offers the outdoors enthusiast all manner of active attractions, from smooth sailing and kayaking kicks to high hill-walks and wandering woodland trails.
All around are picturesque towns and villages offering a warm welcome, award-winning lodgings as well as quiet country inns and tea rooms full of fresh local fare.
