Which Collection Matches Your Mood? | Book by Emotion™ Adore Scotland

Discover Scotland by Emotion

Sometimes, choosing where to stay is simple.

You need to be in Edinburgh for a graduation. You're escaping to the Highlands for a long weekend. You've found the perfect dates and just need somewhere beautiful to rest your head.

But sometimes, the place you're looking for isn't defined by a postcode.

It's defined by a feeling.

At Adore Scotland and The Edinburgh Address, we've always believed that the places we stay become part of the memories we make. They shape conversations around the dinner table, lazy mornings with coffee, laughter echoing through kitchens, and those rare moments of complete stillness.

That's why we've reimagined the way you discover our collection of luxury holiday homes.

Instead of simply browsing by location or number of bedrooms, you can now explore Scotland by how you want to feel.

Why We Created Book by Emotion™

Every traveller is searching for something different.

Some need space to reconnect with family.

Others are craving quiet after a busy season of life.

Some are looking for inspiration, celebration, or the comforting familiarity of a home filled with history.

Our new Book by Emotion™ collections bring those feelings to the forefront, helping you find a holiday home that matches the experience you're hoping to create.

It's a different way of discovering Scotland, and one we're incredibly proud of.

In fact, our Book by Emotion™ concept has recently been recognised as a finalist in the Innovation category at the regional finals of the Scottish Thistle Awards, celebrating new ideas that enhance Scotland's visitor experience.
