Who We Are
Britain Vacation Specialist
Margaret loves
to have her Guests sail overseas but still stay in Scotland. She
joined Scotsell Holidays in 2000 and continues to arrange individual,
island hopping vacations, self catering Scottish Country Cottages
and hotels across Scotland with myguideScotland. Many Guests
comment about how a trip to the islands was a highlight of their
visit to Scotland.
Why did you
join myguideBritain?
I
love to visit new places around the world but have always looked
forward to coming back home to Britain, and especially to Scotland. It
gives me great pleasure to be able to bring other people to experience
the magnificent scenery and understand some of the history of Britain.
What is your favourite part of Britain?
Orkney
must be one of my most favourite places in Britain. The Orkney Islands
have so much to offer. You can enjoy a slower pace of life but still
have all the modern
conveniences and are never to far from good
restaurants.
There is always plenty of things to see and do or you can
just relax..
What is your favourite visitor attraction?
Historical buildings and engineering masterpieces.
I like to explore
castles and check out the history of the past residents!
Archaeological
sites and museums are also very interesting but one of my
favourite
Visitor Attractions is the Falkirk Wheel - a wonderful piece of
engineering.
What is your
favourite British food and restaurant in Britain?
Seafood.
I'll try anything! There are very few fish dishes that I don't like and
the Loch Fyne Oyster Bar & Restaurant at Cairndow in Argyll is the
place to eat it!
Which is your favourite pub in Britain?
My local, but no-one else would want to go there.
Where do you like to shop?
Edinburgh
or Glasgow. They have everything from large chain stores to small
individual 'boutique' shops if you are looking for something different.
Favourite getaway in Britain?
The
British landscape can change rapidly within a short distance. You can
be in the centre of a city and 45 minutes later, be out in the
countryside. It is always a good idea to have a good map to help you on
your travels.
Given your
experience what advice would you give to people coming to Britain?
Be prepared for exciting cities and beautiful countryside scenery but also be prepared for all types of weather.
