The Scottish highlands.
It's only up the road and I never seem to be able to get there.

I did a four days trip there
From Edinbrugh to the Loch Ness, and down to Glasgow. It was one of the best trips in my life, despite the rain and the cold weather. We stayed in very, very cheap places (£20B&B) and almost didn't sleep, but it was great.

Don't come between late May and late September
The midgies are fucking relentless and will easily spoil your whole holiday. April and May are usually the best months, nice fresh weather and zero midgies.

A nice treat
is also the fact that due to being further north, you get much lighter nights and the light fades a lot slower than it does say in Cornwall, so you get all these amazing hues and tones. In fact, even here in Glasgow around Midsummer, it doesn't get completely dark.
