Foodie Breaks

Cottages near Scotland’s best seafood, farm shops, artisan producers and restaurants, for travellers who plan trips around food

Christmas and Hogmanay in Scotland are hard to beat: frosty walks, early dark evenings by the fire and the biggest New Year celebration in the world. Our Festive Getaways are cottages ready for the season, with space for the whole family, big kitchens for the Christmas dinner, wood burners and, at some, hot tubs under the stars. They book up early, so plan ahead. Book direct with the owner and ask about festive availability and minimum stays.
