Format:Paperback
I had this book and a Lonely Planet for a week long trip around Scotland. I mostly booked accommodation from this book and it was all great. I found the Lonely planet to have many inaccuracies whereas the Rough Guide was more comprehensive with more description, opinions and history. By the end of the week this was the only book we had in the car with us.

Format:Paperback
A thoroughly recommended reference; proved very useful to me in recent trips to both Edinburgh and Glasgow. Since returning I have taken the time to read the other chapters, such is the quality of writing on each region of the country. Section on Edinburgh is particularly good for choosing what to see and what not to when staying for only a short time. As with all Rough Guides, the social, cultural and historical background is excellent, although the book's near obsession with awful commercial Gaelic rock group Runrig proves a little tiresome! This a tiny niggle to what was the only book I needed on holiday this summer.

I would thoroughly recommend this book for anyone travelling to Scotland. It covers all major cities and has a real understanding of off the beaten track places, that are so often missed by the major guides. From Loch Tummel in the Highlands to the Barralands in Glasgow, the Guide has it all.

Excellent
One of the best series of guides available. Delivery from Amazon is rapid as usual, a pleasure to deal with

You've got a scottish friend in it!
It is an almost-perfect guide, simply trust it and go. It is really reliable, even too much detailed if you're visiting Scotland for the first time. Read more
