We are situated on the Moray Firth Coast, beautiful scenery and you might catch sight of a dolphin or keep your eyes open at night and you might get a glimpse of the Northern Lights.

I recently stayed at the Glenuig Inn - a lovely Inn on the west coast by Arisaig on the Moidart peninsula. A proper hidden gem! The food was fantastic and the views beautiful, plus it is sustainable and quirky! A great place to stop between the Road to the Isles and Ardnamurchan.

One of my absolute favourite hidden gems in Scotland is the Isle of Ulva off the coast of Mull.  Many people visit Mull every year but the majority bypass this fascinating little island.  It's rugged beauty is staggering. 

Closer to home for me are the wonderful beaches of lovely East Lothian. Seacliff and Ravensheugh are stunning.

A favourite view of mine overlooks the grave of Rob Roy MacGregor.  Creag an Tuirc is the rallying point of the Clan MacLaren the views will knock your socks off. 

Another fabulous view is to be found at the Fyrish Monument near Alness.  It sweeps right down over the Cromarty Firth. 

Waterfalls - Plodda Falls in Glen Affric are spectacular and can be viewed from above (if you're brave enough) and below.

Scotland is full is gems.

Hi there!

For this summer I would like to work in a B&B in Scotland. This because I want to realize my dream for opening my own ECO B&B (and small event location in Scotland, in the future). 

Hopefully you can help me find a contact (B&B or Holiday Home) where they need an hands-on HNC Hotelmanagement graduate for this summer?

Hope to hear from you soon, thank you in advance! 
Kind regards, Maxyne from Amsterdam

Nice topic!  A little hidden gem of mine from the north east coast of Scotland is a places called Fowlsheugh it's a RSPB  Nature Reserve with amazing clifftop views and over 130,000 seabirds, when I last visited I seen some Puffins up close and also a pod of Dolphins! It's a really is a special place and only 5 minutes from Dunnotter Castle in Stonehaven.  On a good day you can see the castle in the background  Here is some more info https://www.visitscotland.com/info/see-do/rspb-scotland-fowlsheugh-nature-reserve-p1400581

Hey @Maxyne - when we stayed at The Lazy Duck I'm pretty sure they said many of their staff are travelling through. Might be worth taking a look, it's a stunning place http://lazyduck.co.uk/

Argyll ticks all the boxes - good food, archaeology, wildlife, scenery - would recommend a visit.

Achmelvich Bay - a spectacular beach, wildlife, walks and a teeny wee castle fit for a hermit (if you know where to look)!
