This summer, we're considering travelling up to Scotland for a 2 week break. It's a considerable distance for us living in sunny Lincolnshire. We're a family with one child at 4 and the other at 2.
We enjoy the outdoors and walking but is there munch for the little ones?
We have family that come from the west cost of Scotland but we're not overly fussed where we go

Any words of advice are greatly received

A site in the trossachs should suit you.
Its central and near to stirling, glasgow and edinburgh for day trips. The trossachs area is also great for walking and sight seeing. Good driving roads too.

Where do you normally go for your holidays?

We had a 2 year old and a 5 year old last summer, and they loved it in France. Sunny, hot, swimming pools, things to do, the rivers etc.

Scotland is a great place, but if the weather is not with you it's ste!

If you fancy a few days semi-remote, you can stop for a donation fee of a few quid a night at Firemore Sands. I've often stopped there in between B&Bs on road trips round Scotland. Nice place and not too far from Ullapool for supplies (along the excellent A832 tongue out)

Surprised to see so many caravans on the Streetview image, whenever I've been there's only been two or three other people max.
