Region: From the lush green farmlands of the Borders to the ruggedness of the Highlands, the Scots are proud of their land and identity. Scotland also has some of Britain’s best beaches with glorious stretches of clean sand over which to roam.
Town: Tomintoul, a charming community perched on the northern reaches of the Cairngorms National Park, holds the distinction of being the highest village in the Highlands at an elevation of 1160 feet. Tomintoul is a great starting point for discovering everything the area has to offer because it boasts a variety of shops, cafes, and pubs, a well-stocked local supermarket and post office, a top-notch restaurant, and it's located on the main road connecting Royal Deeside and the Highlands. You have a lot of options, including beautiful scenery, the well-known Whisky and Castle trails, mountain biking at the Glenlivet cycle trails, fishing, shooting, walks along the Speyside Trail, or skiing at neighbouring Lecht and Aviemore.
