Why go?

Driving around the majestic mountains, deepwater lochs, and heather-covered glens of the Highlands will, quite literally, take your breath away – and inspire the kids with stories of monsters, myths, and legends. And, although it’s easy to overlook the cities with this expansive natural playground at your feet, Edinburgh and Glasgow offer the perfect city breaks, with their awe-inspiring architecture, ancient castles, and world-class galleries. Fortunately, when you’re traveling around Scotland in a motorhome, you can take your pick!

Home on wheels

The freedom of hitting the open road and parking up at a beauty hotspot is a great pull – through when you’re with kids, it’s best to book campsites upfront. Turn up early and you could be securing one of the best views on the edge of a scenic loch or at the foot of a mountain.
