Harry Potter's enchanted Scotland

Children and adults alike can follow in the footsteps of the world's favourite wizard and discover the enchanting locations featured in the Harry Potter book series and films. 

The series of Harry Potter was famously written within coffee shops of Edinburgh, and inspired by residents of Greyfriars Kirkyard, so most Harry Potter fans must a visit to Edinburgh. 

Arguably ones of the most iconic scenes is of Glenfinnan Viaduct, a stunning archtectural structure. In the movie, the Hogwarts Express famously crosses this viaduct. Currently there are no trains running on the viaduct, but it is still a beautiful place to visit. 

Explore the atmospheric landscapes of Glencoe, used as the backdrop for Hagrid's Hut and the Triwizard Tournament. 

Contrary to popular belief, the University of Glasgow was not the inspiration for Hogwarts, but rather George Heriot School. This school cannot be toured, but a walk nearby will reveal its iconic architecture. 

Our premium accommodation across Scotland will ensure you have a magical stay while retracing the adventures of Harry, Hermione, and Ron.

James Bond thrills in the heart of Scotland

Experience the thrill of James Bond's escapades with a stay near some of Scotland's most iconic 007 locations. 

Thanks in part to the 1st class acting from Sean Connery, James Bond's Scottish heritage is showcased vividly in the iconic film series, with breathtaking scenes spanning across Scotland's majestic landscapes.

From the breathtaking scenery of Glen Etive featured in Skyfall to the historic charm of Eilean Donan Castle seen in The World Is Not Enough, our luxurious properties put you right in the heart of Bond's Scottish adventures.

With other scenes shot with majestic views over Glen Coe, Duart Castle and Argyll, a visit to Scotland's Bond sets will provide a memorable adventure away from the crowds.
