Scotland is famous for its castles, of which there were thought to be around 3000. Many have been restored, some stand ruined, while others have disappeared altogether.
Ranging from small towers to sprawling country mansions, there are castles of all shapes and sizes. You can learn more about Scotland’s castles here.
The Picts were the enigmatic inhabitants of what is now Scotland from around the beginning of the 1st century until around the middle of the 9th century AD.
With none of their written records surviving, much of what is known about the Picts derives from the hundreds of carved stones that they left as their legacy. Read more here.
Join us on our travels around Scotland as we seek out the most interesting places and go in search of castles, coffee and cake.
Our journeys have taken us all over Scotland, from north to south and across to the islands, as we explore this wonderful country which has so much to offer despite its relatively small size. Check out the latest blog post here.

Traditionally in each area there was a prominent family, or clan, whose head became the chief and offered protection and security to relatives and neighbours.
The word “clan” comes from the Gaelic word clann meaning “children”, the chief being the head of an extended family. Search Scotland’s clan names and surnames here.
Scotland’s placenames are derived from a number of languages, and while the majority are Gaelic in origin, others come from Pictish, Old Norse, Old English and of course Scots.
Population movements through the centuries, corruption over time and political developments have left a rich tapestry of descriptive names. Learn more here.
