The Aberdeen and Grampian Highlands region is surrounded by stunning countryside that's peppered with over 350 castles.

Scotland is renowned throughout the world for its fine malt whiskies, and over half of those are produced in Aberdeenshire and the Grampian Highlands region. No trip is complete without tasting a wee dram or two of some of Scotland's finest. Many of the distilleries offer guided tours and some have visitor centres and gift shops. Amongst the best is the Glenfiddich Distillery (tel: (01340) 820 373; www.glenfiddich.com) in Dufftown.
