Our B & B program features a superb selection of 385 quality bed & breakfast properties throughout Scotland. These family-owned homes are located in cities, towns or country areas enabling you to choose what suits you best. Some properties, but not all, offer rooms with private bathrooms at a supplement of UK£4 per person, payable to the homeowner.

Edinburgh Visit
The number of B & Bs and Hotelpass properties in Edinburgh is very limited and demand for rooms is very high, especially during the Festival in August. B & Bs charge a supplement of £6 per room, per night. We suggest that you consider taking our Edinburgh at Leisure program. These centrally located hotels will be prebooked for you and you will be able to use public transportation.

Hotelpass
Hotelpass offers 125 great hotels located throughout Scotland. First class hotels are located in towns, cities and countryside and offer amenities, which are listed in your hotel directory. Many hotels are set in delightful gardens and offer scenic views, health clubs or leisure facilities. You may upgrade to a selection of superior and deluxe properties — superior supplements are UK£5 per person and deluxe UK£10 per person per night

Starting at $441 per person. Air included. All depends upon where you fly from, what type of hotel, car etc. I expect we will end up paying about $1500 per person.

And I have to find a Scottish Graham Kilt whilst I am there.

Don't forget your dirk you Highlander you... LOL
