Edinburgh provides the perfect mix of big city vibes and a historical backdrop. Just minutes away from the main shopping square you can find <strong>Edinburgh Castle<\/strong>, the <strong>National Museum of Scotland<\/strong>, and <strong>Calton Hill<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find plenty of attractions just venturing through the city center and the Royal Mile. Of course, no trip to Edinburgh is complete without a trek around <strong>Holyrood Park<\/strong>. This enormous park gives you views of the entire city and also hosts historical landmarks such as the famous Arthur&#8217;s Seat. Edinburgh is also easy to get to thanks to its international airport and gives you links to the rest of Scotland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being the historic city that it is, it&#8217;s no surprise that there are a number of ghost stories, legends and opportunities to dive deeper into the culture of the city. A variety of activities and tours are able to be scheduled if you&#8217;re looking for a more immersive experience.

Covering over 823 square miles, this natural and historic wonder is brimming with things to do. Whether you&#8217;re a fan of exploring historical landmarks and castles, looking for breathtaking nature walks and mountain hikes or simply want to take a beautiful country drive, Snowdonia is sure to please. One innovative method for exploring Snowdonia is by utilizing a <strong><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.viator.com\/tours\/Betws-y-Coed\/7-Day-Geo-Scavenger-Hunt-App-Tour-for-Snowdonia\/d50819-304970P12?pid=P00036374&amp;uid=U00108496&amp;mcid=58086\" target=\"_blank\">private 7-day pass program<\/a><\/strong> that helps you navigate the park and earn prizes along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Snowdonia also plays host to a number of railways, which make for a unique and fun method to traverse the park and witness all it has to offer. If trains aren&#8217;t your thing, rent a bicycle and navigate any number of the many cycling routes. Throughout the park, you can also find a variety of facilities and locations that host climbing walls, badminton courts, swimming pools, and squash courts. There are also <strong><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.viator.com\/tours\/Snowdonia\/Guided-Scrambles-Snowdonia\/d24144-109780P2?pid=P00036374&amp;uid=U00108496&amp;mcid=58086\" target=\"_blank\">companies that help teach you how to scramble and climb<\/a><\/strong>. One could argue that a visit to Snowdonia could be a vacation in and of itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, when it comes to accommodation, Snowdonia provides options suitable for every budget. Camping (and glamping) is a popular option in the park. Many travelers choose to set up camp or bring motorhomes to a variety of locations throughout Snowdonia. Upscale glamping in treehouses and cabins are also options. If luxury is more your thing, stay at any number of upscale vacation rentals or hotels in towns like <strong>Llanberis<\/strong> or <strong>Conwy<\/strong>, among others.

Especially because it&#8217;s here that the famous Loch Ness Monster is said to live. &#8220;Nessie,&#8221; as he\/she\/it has famously been nicknamed, has reportedly been sighted as far back as the 6th century. It still remains a mystery as to what this creature actually is, and if it&#8217;s still alive or ever existed at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inverness is one of the largest Scottish towns in the north and plays host to a wide variety of accommodations, pubs, and a vibrant culinary scene. It&#8217;s also a great home base for those who are looking to explore Scotland&#8217;s highlands and spend time outdoors. For those who are fans of the show Outlander, it&#8217;s also a must-visit as Inverness is located near to where the Battle of Culloden took place.

It&#8217;s perhaps best known for its golf course, or &#8220;Old Course.&#8221; St. Andrews is believed to be the &#8220;birthplace of golf&#8221; when first swings were taken as early as the beginning of the 15th century. Interestingly, the sport was temporarily banned by King James II because the population was found to be spending too much time golfing instead of practicing archery. James III later got rid of the ban, being an avid golfer himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This quaint town harbors much more than golf, also playing host to the University of St. Andrews and the dramatic ruins of St. Andrews Cathedral, a breathtaking and expansive historic monument that many students and travelers alike choose to spend their free time relaxing or picnicking while inhaling the revitalizing sea air blowing in from the northeast. This hip but historic town is also full of wonderful boutique restaurants and pubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><a name=\"devon\"><\/a>Devon<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter wp-image-15336 size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"332\" src=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Clovelly-Devon-England.jpg\" alt=\"Clovelly, Devon, England\" class=\"wp-image-15336\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Clovelly-Devon-England.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Clovelly-Devon-England-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Clovelly-Devon-England-310x206.jpg 310w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Clovelly, a quaint fishing village found in Devon, England.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to see the best beaches the United Kingdom has to offer, make sure you head down to Devon.

He first became involved with wine traveling after a month-long solo trip to Spain about 10 years ago, planning the trip almost exclusively around the gastronomic scene of the country. Ever since that particular trip abroad, he developed a passion for traveling and making wine tourism the core driver behind where he ends up. This has since led him to exciting destinations including the Czech Republic, to Austria, Germany, Switzerland, France, Italy, Portugal, California, Washington State, Canada and beyond. His primary aim through Winetraveler is to expose this style of travel to the world and make it accessible to everyone.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com","https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/winetraveler","https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/winederlust","https:\/\/x.com\/Winederlusting","https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCTmUbf3eq7vK0Z6wx1jrLwg"],"url":"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/author\/greig\/"}]}},"modified_by":"Greig
