A MAGICAL MOTORHOME TRIP AROUND SCOTLAND ✨ 

Gemma’s beautiful photographs of her Scottish holiday, perfectly encapsulate what I hope The Wander Years will be: A place that celebrates family holidays of every shape and size, and offers other families the inspiration and practical advice they need to plan their own adventures.

Not everyone has a motorhome like “Margot,” but this itinerary can easily be followed with a car and tent, glamping, or Airbnb.

🚐 THE ROUTE
Edinburgh → St Andrews → Braemar (near Balmoral) → John O’Groats → Melvich Bay → Isle of Skye → Ferry to Mull → Iona → Tyndrum → Keswick, Lake District

⛺️ ACCOMMODATION
- Motorhome with fully serviced pitches (electric hook-up & water)
- Laundry facilities made longer stays stress-free
