Scotland Trip - September

Hello,

OH and I would like to go to Scotland for a week in September (once children have gone back to school). We are thinking of driving up there and going to a few places, e.g. Edinburgh, Lochness, Eilean Donan Castle etc. Obviously we would need to stop on the way as we come from the midlands. We were thinking of staying in a travelodge or B&B. Has anyone got any good recommendations for an itinerary for the week or places to stay/visit.

Thanks x

    We have done it a couple of times from Derby and stop at a travel lodge just on the outskirts of Berwick upon tweed.

    Have breakfast at the Morrisons just opposite instead of the silly breakfast packs they give you.
