Scotland the Best

by PeterIrvine (Author)

Synopsis

This is the guide to help you experience all that is excellent about Scotland. Whether you live here or are visiting, why settle for the second-rate when you can be guided to so much that is superb? Peter Irvine's personal guide provides thousands of recommendations covering a multitude of topics including: the best places to stay (whatever your budget), the best beaches, the best ice-cream, the best hill walks, the best bakers, the best spooky places, the best seafood, the best places for kids, the best ceildhs, and so the list goes on. In this edition Peter Irvine has reassessed every recommendation to see whether it is still worthy of inclusion.

Media Reviews
'The only guide worth a damn' The Scotsman 'Infallible and quite brilliant' Daily Telegraph 'Apart from a clever structure and the highest journalistic standards, this book is a joy. The clever thing about such opinionated copy is that pretty soon one picks up the character of the writer, and thus can get a much more accurate and tactile impression of a place than from so-called even handed reports. This book can only enhance the pleasure of visiting or living in Scotland' Amazon 'The plain truth is that this book does not put foot wrong: every one of the places that I have visited on Mr Irvine's recommendation has lived up to or exceeded its billing' Amazon
