We are taking our motorhome to Scotland in May/June for three weeks and would like any ideas on 'must see' areas and 'must do' drives. We like to stop 2/3 nights max at each site and will be taking our bikes for some gentle exercise.
Mnat thanks

You don't say whereabouts in Scotland you'll be touring, but if you're over on the west coast side of the Highlands try the Arisaig area. We stayed at Invercaimbe campsite - on here in campsite search - the end of the site comes right onto the beach and the scenery is to die for. The white sands of the Morar estuary are only about 4 miles away, again absolutely beautiful scenery, and the drive along the coast road gives stunning views.

If you are a CC member - Bunree Cc site at Onich, lovely setting, as is Morvich. On Skye there is a new C&CC site which looks good. Rather than Grantown I would stay on the Glenmore Forest site - much more spectacular setting.
Haven't mentioned the hills - if you hill walk you will be in 7th heaven. Get yourself a book of Munros - you could bag a far few with that itinerary, or just do lots of Corbets if you prefer lower walks.

If you can, I would visit Perth. Its a beautiful city and very, very clean. Also the Ayrshire coast is very nice from Largs down to Girvan. Lots of nice views. Culzean Castle has a C&C site too.

Must sees for me would be Glencoe, Arisaig, Wester Ross and Durness. All of these areas are truly outstanding for scenery and the beaches around Wester Ross and Durness are stunning!

How about the NE! Stunning deserted beached, moantains, lochs, castles, distilleries and more. Alot miss it heading for the usual tourist tick list, but few realise what they are missing.

We normally head for Silverbank CC site at Banchory, then on up to a council run site in Fraserburgh.
A beautiful area.
