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 Domestic and Household 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.
Header Slides
Today's header slides are a view of the centre of Haddington in East Lothian from the east; and the superbly located and extremely poignant Commando Memorial near Spean Bridge in Lochaber, close to where the commandos trained in WWII.

In Focus
Chanonry Point
lies at the end of Chanonry Ness, a spit of land extending over a mile
south-east into the Moray Firth from Fortrose
and Rosemarkie. Chanonry
Point is popular as one of the best onshore locations in Scotland -
or perhaps anywhere - from which to view dolphins. The Moray Firth
is home to around 130 dolphins, which can often be seen at very close
quarters here as they fish and play in the turbulent waters off the point.
