Welcome
Hello, and welcome to Undiscovered Scotland, the ultimate online guide to Scotland. The site is a combination of visitor guide, accommodation listing and business directory, and aims to show you what the country is really like. We also offer website design, maintenance and hosting services.
Navigation
You can navigate the site using clickable maps like the one on this page or the drop down menus. There are other resources to help you, including the Alphabetical Index, the Site Index, the Accommodation Index, the Late Availability listings page, the Search boxes on most pages (usually below a clickable map), the Site Information section, the What's On? and What's New? pages and Scotfax. In addition we have collections of links to resources such as Tour Operators and Property Services. Or simply visit a random feature page.
Accommodation can be accessed via the "Accommodation" menu at the top of many pages, including this one, or using the "See and Stay" menus at the top of many other pages.

In Focus
You can find Harmony
Garden a little to the north west of Melrose Abbey, on the northern
edge of Melrose itself. To reach it you cross Abbey Street from the
abbey's visitor centre and follow it to the corner of St
Mary's Road. The gated entrance to Harmony Garden is set into the corner,
on your left. Harmony Garden is the garden of Harmony House, and like
the nearby Priorwood Garden is in the care of the National Trust for
Scotland. ( More

Featured Book
The Janus Run by Douglas Skelton (20 September 2018).
When Coleman Lang finds his girlfriend Gina dead in his New York City apartment, he thinks nothing could be worse... until he becomes the
prime suspect. Desperate to uncover the truth and clear his name, Coleman hits the streets. But there's a deranged Italian hitman, an intuitive
cop, two US Marshals, his ex-wife and the mysterious organisation known only as Janus on his tail. And trying to piece together Gina's murky
past without dredging up his own seems impossible.
