Product Description

For great outdoors and big adventure, Scotland's hard to beat
- and the best way to enjoy nature's adventure playground is to sleep
amongst all this epic scenery. If you ever need an excuse to go camping,
Scotland is it!

From the publishers of bestseller Cool Camping: England comes this
anticipated sequel - Cool Camping: Scotland, the ultimate guide to
exceptional campsites and camping experiences north of the border.

This book, one of the first to be published in the new `glove-box' size,
follows the winning Cool Camping formula: nothing but the very
best hand-picked countryside sites, plenty of inspirational colour photos,
honest and entertaining reviews and essential practical info, including
popular entries like 'NEAREST DECENT PUB' and 'IF IT RAINS'.

Each campsite or camping experience is a destination in its own right,
including plenty of beautiful loch-side locations, sites with stunning
mountain views plus a selection of truly remote island camping experiences.
Unusual places include a campsite at a distillery; `The Sheilings' on Mull,
where near-luxury safari tents are ready-assembled for an easy camping
break; and the `Lazy Duck' with its on-site sauna and hammocks in the
heather. The vagaries of wild camping have also been explored, with some
spectacular wild camping spots recommended.

The handy CAMPSITES AT A GLANCE section sends you straight to the sites
you're looking for; whether it's with campfires, stunning views, lochside
locations or easy sites for first-time campers. Part contemporary travel
guide, part coffee-table book, Cool Camping: Scotland, is a breath
of fresh air for UK campers.

Where can we go next?
I have been waiting all my life for a campsite book like this, not only is it aimed a people with tents it has the most beautiful pictures as well as useful information like nearest pub and whether or not we can have a campfire.

Off to Red Squirrel next weekend, thank you Cool Camping!

Wonderful book
Have just purchased Cool Camping in Scotland and have spent the last two evenings deciding which wonderful site I will be spending my summer holidays at.

This book is wonderfully presented with clear text and stunning photographs - I now want to vist all the sites mentioned! These are the kind of campsites I am looking for - not full of statics and vans but well laid-out sites with adequate facilities and spectacular sights to see. This is how I want to spend my camping trips and this book has opened a new part of Scotland to me. I would recommend this book to anyone wanting to camp away from the 'holiday camp' options.

It would be nice to see more sites in the East of Scotland but spoilt for choice in the North and West.

Only small worry is that as the book becomed popular so will the featured sites - hey ho at least the scenery will still remain!

Just what I have been waiting for!
I love my Cool Camping books. I don't want a huge nasty caravan park with swimming pool, bar and a games room for the kids. I want to explore by day, then sit by the campfire in a stunning location or perhaps pop down to the village pub for a pint of the local brew. Cool camping helps me do just that. My only worry is they are giving away all my secret locations.
