Scotland has an unspoilt and intriguing coastline that snakes around the country.  Dotted along this coastline are some pristine sandy beaches along with sheer cliffs where waves crash hard against the cliff faces.  Some find the coastline around Argyll and Bute the best when it comes to inspirational scenery but others have their own favourites.  To discover which part of Scotland you consider to be the most inspirational you will just have to visit for a cottage holiday and explore.

Lots of sunshine is something that can never be guaranteed in Scotland even during British summertime.  Yet when in Scotland this very often doesn't seem to matter.  Sunny hot days always help show a place off at its best but with peaceful golden beaches to discover and some that you don't even have to share, could there really be any better place to go for a coastal self-catering holiday?
