Ross-shire

Print

A varied and beautiful county, Ross-shire stretches across Scotland from coast to coast with gentle lush green farmland in the east to wild magnificent rugged scenery in the west.

The west coast is famous for its wondeful scenery but the eastern side is equally attractive in its own way and as deserving of a visit as its famous west coast counterpart.

The east coast has lovely stretches of unspoilt beach and shoreline and a variety of small villages and towns. The quiet quaintness of Cromarty on the most easterly point of the Black Isle is in direct contrast to the bustle of Dingwall, the county town.

On the west coast, Ullapool is a busy fishing port, whereas villages like Applecross and Lochcarron have a sleepy charm all of their own.

The gardens at Inverewe are renowned for their tropical plants, there are palm trees in the streets of Plockton and white coral washed up on secluded beaches. Yes, this is the west coast of Scotland we are talking about!
