24 hr Tesco

Tesco is a supermarket chain that's taking over the UK with their products and deals. You'll find them everywhere, but we especially prefer our 24hr Tesco. Advisable to only shop here for essentials or in possession of a good salary..
Afternoon Tea at the Road Hole, Old Course St Andrews

If you are visiting St Andrews take the time out to have afternoon tea at the Old Course Hotel, Golf Resort & Spa. Served in the 17th Road Hole Bar which is located on the top floor of the hotel with spectacular views over the Old Course and St Andrew's coastline.

The afternoon tea is fab and with a varied selsction of sandwiches, scones, cakes and pancakes. Well worth the trip.

This is an award winning and well known fish & chips bar located in a small fishing village on the east coast of scotland on the harbour front.

Highly recommended for a fab meal and great views of this pretty village.

Where better to spend a fantastic White Christmas than in Aviemore? Skiing, beautiful scenery, whisky - and the locals are friendly too!
Ayrs & Graces

A beautiful family-run guest house on the outskirts of Alloway, birthplace of Rabbie Burns.

Costing less than a £100 per night, our room had an en suite bathroom and a small television lounge where you could have a free nightcap.

The inclusive breakfast was sumptuous to say the least. The owners were friendly and made us feel totally at home.
Ben Nevis Bar

A quiet, cosy traditional pub. Downstairs is the bar area with comfy sofas as well as tables and chairs. Food is served downstairs until 5pm and upstairs in the restaurant after 5pm. The food is fantastic! All tastes freshly cooked and as though it has been made on the day, including the pasta in the ravioli. The fish was the best my partner had ever had, tasted like it had been caught that day. There was also a varied range on the menu, from traditional Hagis to fish, a choice of freshly made pastas or lamb shank. The prices were great too, neither of our meals cost more than £10. Service was prompt and friendly. I would highly recommend this to anyone visiting the area!
