Hi Laurie,<BR><BR>My wife and I went two years ago and drove for 8 days through Scotland. We started in Edinburgh, from there went to St. Andrews (beautiful town on the ocean), Inverness (Culloden battlefield, Loch Ness), Eilean Donan Castle, Isle of Skye (absolutely gorgeous place), Glencoe, Stirling, and back to Edinburgh. We loved driving through the highlands of Scotland and would highly recommend it.

Laurie,<BR><BR>One of Fodors' regulars, Sheila Ritchie, has posted suggested routes previously which cover the areas which you are looking at. I know many people havbe found her tips both helpful and informative, and as she lives there she should know!<BR><BR>Type her name in to the "search" box and it should bring them up!

Laurie<BR><BR>I was away myself last week, so I missed this when it came in.<BR><BR>I have stored a lot of the routes I've prepared for folk,(I got fed up reinventing the wheel) so if you want to email me, I'll pass them on that way.<BR><BR>Do let me know if I can help at all.
